How long does it take after we order to receive cards?

This depends on whether or not you get the businesses.

If you get the businesses, the turnaround is very fast. Orders are usually shipped the same day, or next business day, and take from 3 to 5 business days to reach their destination.

If we get a business for you, the turnaround can take up to 45-60 days from the time we receive your order. It usually happens much faster, in a matter of 3-7 days, but we would rather tell you 45-60 days, and get the cards to you in thirty days, rather than the other way around.

We may already have cards in your area. Call us toll-free at 1-800-369-3991 to see if we have stores under contract in your area. If we do, we can ship an order in as little as four (4) hours after you place the call.

Do you ship to P.O. boxes?

No. We ship orders via United Parcel Service (UPS) and they only deliver to physical addresses. Someone will need to be there to sign for the orders.

Do you ship overnight?

Yes. There is a $40 shipping and handling fee for overnight orders.

Do you offer cards in Canada?

While we do not have stores under contract in Canada, we would be more than happy to print and ship cards to you, if you get the businesses yourself.

Can you give us ideas on how and where to sell cards?

Yes we can. We will send a Tips for Fundraising brochure with your order, full of ideas on how to sell tons of cards. You will be amazed. It shows the most effective ways to sell cards to individuals. It also demonstrates how to sell cards in multiples.

How many businesses can you get on a card?

We can place up to 16 businesses on a multi-sponsor card.  However, our art department recommends a maximum of 12, because more than twelve can require making type very small, which can make cards hard to read.

Art Department: There is no room for business logos on multi-sponsor cards.

What type of offers are on the cards?

Our single-sponsor discount cards (i.e. Subway card, Domino's Pizza card, Pizza Hut card, etc.) have just the one offer.  Multi-sponsor cards have offers from various local merchants, for discounts on food, video rentals, entertainment, automotive maintenance, jewelry and clothing, etc.

May I return unsold cards?

You may be able to return unsold cards, depending on the pricing plan you choose. For more information on card return priveledges, please go to our Pricing page.

What about sales taxes?

We are wholesalers. We do not sell on a retail basis. Each state has its own regulations regarding sales taxes and when they should be collected. If your state requires you to collect sales taxes that is between you and them. Since we wholesale only, we do not collect sales taxes.

How can we make the most of our fundraiser?

Use ideas from the Tips for Fundraising brochure or see our Fundraising Tips and Suggestions page. Make sure as many people participate as possible. Have each person make out a prospect list before the sale starts.

Can we have our logo on the front of our cards?

Yes you can! If you furnish us with a copy of your logo, we can use it. We have several options for submitting logos:

Submit by Fax: This is the fastest option if you have black-and-white or color-on-white artwork. Simply submit it to our toll-free fax number at 1-866-405-1185. If your artwork contains color on color, you need to submit it by one of the other (below) options, as the faxed image will only show up as a solid black blob.

Submit by Email: You can also send us artwork by email. If you are submitting color artwork, we prefer you use this option. Images can be submitted in any of the following formats: Encapsulated PostScript (EPS; preferred method), Adobe Illustrator (AI), Adobe Photoshop Document (PSD), Windows Bitmap (BMP), Windows Metafile (WMF), Tagged Image Format (TIF), Graphics Interchange File (GIF), or a JPEG Image (JPG). Recommended image size is one to two inches per dimension (height and width), at 300dpi. Files should be saved using the Windows format. We do not guarantee the ability to read any other image/document formats.

How long has J & M Distributing been in business?

J & M Distributing has been in the fundraising business for over 20 years. We specialize in a variety of discount cards card products, and service 49 of the 50 United States.

Do you have references?

Yes! It is not unusual for people to write and tell us good things about our programs. Some businesses will send a short list of people who seem to like them. Of course they would not send you the name of someone that did not like them.  We suggest that an impartial rating of how we do business from the Better Business Bureau is best.

It is also a pretty good reference when you have toll-free numbers you can call, day or night, and talk to a real person.
