Important: Luminara Prep’s vendor approval does not mean every individual product or purchase is automatically approved. ADE/ClassWallet determines final expense eligibility under current program rules. Future Pre-K–12 curriculum levels are in development and are not represented as currently approved or available for purchase.

Your ESA/ClassWallet account stays under your control

The ESA account holder submits the unpaid invoice and any required supporting documentation through the account holder's own ClassWallet account. Luminara Prep will never ask for or access your ESA/ClassWallet password, login credentials, payment-card information, or other account-access information.

Approval reminder: An invoice request is not an ADE/ClassWallet approval or a completed ESA purchase. Final purchase eligibility is determined by ADE/ClassWallet.

ADE unpaid-invoice fields used by Luminara Prep

Our ESA invoice template includes a unique invoice number, student name, Luminara Prep vendor name/address/contact information, clear itemized product or service descriptions, service or purchase date information as applicable, quantities and line amounts, and the total amount charged. A professional-license number is included only when a licensed service provider is actually being invoiced.

For supplemental educational materials, we also provide or reference the applicable curriculum connection or supporting documentation when needed.
