$1 from next lot selection group

If I am reading the announcement correctly I believe I am $1 from being in the next lot selection group. While this does only put me a few hours behind the next group the time difference has impact. I live in the Pacific time zone and this means Midnight selection time vs. a 5am selection time...on a Monday morning. I would rather not have to rush to pick a spot while trying to get ready for work.

My question is...I was reading the notes on how to upgrade to the next tier and add-ons I own don't count. I do how ever have a $5 store credit sitting unused available on my account. Is there a way to get that converted to my pledge amount which puts me in the next group?

I want to purchase one more add-on item and a stretch goal item in the near future, so spending that $25 for the service voucher is money I would rather spend on those.

 

there are many of us that would like an answer to that. currently the only way is to start a payment plan and cancel it after the first payment.

 

I think they added another way:

Relevant bit:

EDIT: Many backers have inquired how to add dollars to their pledge.

• Option 1: Start and cancel a payment plan
• Option 2: Purchase a $25 Service voucher and send a request to support@portalarium. We will then add that $25 plus whatever amount of available store credits or gift coupons you wish to your pledge.
