If you’re an ESA family in Surprise, Peoria, Glendale, Goodyear, Buckeye, Wittmann, Wadell or the West Valley, booking summer camps can feel confusing—but it doesn’t have to be.


At Surprise & Shine, we offer three simple ways to secure your child’s spot using ESA funds.

💳 Option 1: Direct Pay Through ClassWallet (Most Popular for ESA Families)

This option allows ESA to pay the vendor directly.

Step 1:Call 480-621-5782 to speak with a director and request:

  • An invoice

  • An attestation form

Step 2: Log into ClassWallet and follow these steps:

  1. Select Direct Pay

  2. Enter camp amount under “Enter Payment Amount”

    (Do not change service fee or vendor amount—it auto-calculates)

  3. Upload:

    • Invoice (sent via email)

    • Attestation form

  4. Select your ESA purse (ex: Arizona-ESA)

  5. Choose expense category: “Tutoring and Teaching Services – Accredited Facility/Business”

  6. Skip optional page if desired

  7. Review and submit

This is the most common and streamlined option for ESA families.


💳 Option 2: Pay with ESA Debit Card (If Eligible)

If your ESA account includes a debit card, you can simply:

  • Use your ESA card at checkout

  • Secure your camp spot instantly

This is the fastest way to book if your account has card access.


🔁 Option 3: Pay First, Then Request Reimbursement

If you prefer to move quickly or secure a spot immediately:

  1. Book and pay directly here: https://www.wellnessliving.com/rs/event/surpriseshine?k_business=651863&k_class_tab=71362&uid=55614487&id_class_tab=2

  2. Then log into ClassWallet

  3. Submit your receipt and attestation form for reimbursement

Great option if spots are filling and you don’t want to wait.
