GSUSA will officially launch the National Girl Scout Cookie season on January 6. Beginning then, the Girl Scout Cookie Finder will be live for customers searching by ZIP Code for nearby cookie booths or a local troop to support through a shipped cookie purchase. With this early national launch, we want local customers searching for cookies to have the ability to support a local troop for a shipped purchase.
Troops have the option to activate their ship-only troop link in Digital Cookie to be included in the Girl Scout Cookie Finder for shipped orders. Digital Cookie registration emails for troop volunteers will be sent on January 5, allowing time for site setup. Once your troop’s site is complete, it will be added to the rotation of active troop links within your ZIP Code. Girl Scout Digital Cookie access and the remaining troop functionality will not be active until February 11, when online and pre-sales begin. The ship-only troop links should not be shared broadly—consider it a soft launch of the season to benefit our local troops, especially with interest in the new Exploremores.
Setting up your troop site is easy, check out our video instructions or the Site Set Up Tip Sheet.
Any sales from the troop ship-only link will be credited to Girl Scouts in Smart Cookies. We recommend waiting until the end of the season to distribute these sales.
