Spirit does not offer TSA Pre-Check.

We have a Global Entry card.

Can we Pre-Check outside of the airline?

Short answer: No.

Long answer: No, not yet. Their ops platform, Navitaire, just added support for PreCheck two months ago. So far, Spirit has not enabled it.

PreCheck must be on the Boarding Pass you use to pass through TSA. Just having Global Entry does not help with this scenario.

Update: Spirit joined TSA PreCheck in January 2017.

According to the LA Times:

Fla.-based Spirit Airlines is planning to join sometime this fall.

Your only option in the absence of your airline participating in PreCheck is to buy a fully refundable ticket on a participating airline, use that to pass security, and then refund it immediately after.
