Scrip is any substitute for currency which is not legal tender. Scrip is a form of credit which was extended to any company employee who had accrued a salary. Historically scrip was designed to be used at the designated company store. There are documented instances where scrip was accepted at multiple companies and their specific communities.
History
Traditionally, scrip has been thought of as what employees were "paid" with, particularly in the United States, where everything in a mining or logging camp was run, created and owned by the company. Workers would pay for meals and goods with scrip at a company store. While scrip was a de facto form of currency, employees were rarely able to convert it to actual cash. Using scrip as credit against an employee's salary and placing enormous mark ups on goods in a company store, made workers completely dependent on the company, thus enforcing their "loyalty" to the company.
Scrip has also been created as a means of payment in times and countries where regular money is unavailable, such as remote coal towns or occupied countries in war time. When U.S. President Andrew Jackson issued his Specie Circular of 1836, due to credit shortages, Virginia Scrip was accepted as payments for federal lands.
