Registration E-mails Launched for Smart Cookies Access
In preparation for the start of our cookie program next Tuesday, December 21, registration e-mails for girls to create their online accounts for Smart Cookies will be launched today, December 13. Registered Girl Scouts should check their e-mail inbox for the e-mail.

Although online orders cannot be taken until December 21, girls can begin entering the names and e-mail addresses of potential customers and setting their goals. Girls who do not receive the Smart Cookies e-mail should contact their Troop Cookie Manager or our Customer Care Team at info@girlscoutsp2p.org.   Helpful Tip: When creating a girl’s Smart Cookies account, parents should check the Opt-in for Social Media Link Girl-Delivery Box to yes only if the girl/parent elects to receive orders for girl delivery through her social media link (this is an order placed via Facebook or another social media platform where the Girl Scout obtains the cookies from the troop inventory of cookies and delivers them to her customer). Please note that all orders placed for girl delivery through her social media link MUST be approved via a pending approval e-mail within five days of the order being placed or the order will be cancelled. Below is an example of the approval e-mail:
