Online Statement Access 24/7
To access your current statement (as well as those from previous months), just login at www.redtrayoptical.com the 7th of each month. For most members, this means at least three extra days to reconcile supplier accounts before payment is due! We’ll even send an e-mail each month to let you know when your statement has been posted.
Pay Online With i-drafts
