Office Depot Extends Deep Discounts
to the Bowling Industry!
USBC is excited to roll-out to local and state associations a discount pricing program with Office Depot, a leader in the office supply industry! USBC certified associations (as well as BPAA member centers) can receive significant Office Depot discounts several ways.
1. USBC Associations and/or BPAA member centers must first register with Office Depot to be verified as a USBC certified association or current BPAA member center. Once verified, that "location" will be added to the bowling industry's national discount pricing program. To register online, please visit this web portal:
https://odams.officedepot.com/registrations/usbc.php
2. If a location prefers not to register via the Internet, they may also phone in their request toll-free to 888-438-8998, ext. 4421. This number will reach Vivian Hajeer who has been assigned to Office Depot's Bowling Industry Discount Program for several years and will know how to handle each request.

Other Program Details
- Office Depot offers FREE DELIVERY with no minimum order requirements when ordering online, by phone @ 888-777-4044 or by fax at 800-973-3376.
- Every location who registers will be defaulted to a credit card only account (linked to USBC/BPAA account number 35014061), but they may also request a line of credit with Office Depot if they so choose via the web registration form.
- In order to receive discounts IN RETAIL STORES, Office Depot must link the 16 digit credit card number on the front of the customer’s credit card which they normally use to buy office supplies. Once linked to the discount pricing program, the customer MUST PAY WITH THAT CREDIT CARD at the register in order to receive their discounts. If a debit card is the card that is linked to the program, the customer must select credit transaction (not debit transaction) when they pay in order to receive their discounts. (There is a space on the on-line registration at the bottom of "User Information" for the customer to list that credit card number. Note: personal information such as name, card type or card expiration date is not necessary.) If the credit card is linked properly, after the card is swiped at the register, the total purchase amount will re-calculate to the USBC/BPAA price or store sale price (whichever is lower).
- If an association or BPAA center does not want to link a credit card, Office Depot is able to issue an Office Depot card that is loaded with the USBC/BPAA price. Office Depot will then invoice that location once a month for purchases made in the store.
NOTE:
If an association already has an Office Depot “advantage” card, it cannot be used in conjunction with the USBC discount program because that card will override the bowling industry discount, and will not give the lowest possible price. The USBC program always gives the lower of the two prices (retail or contract) so the USBC program is a better deal than the "advantage" program.
