Cashless catering FAQs
Answers to frequently asked questions about the cashless catering facility available with the new University card.
Cashless catering and the new University card
The new University card is being distributed to all University staff, students and visitors in the second half of 2011.
The new card is blue in colour and features updated background artwork. It contains a microchip that securely holds essential data so, where facilities exist, you will be able to use it for new functions.
The first new service to be launched is cashless catering, allowing you to make cashless payments with your card at a range of catering outlets managed by Accommodation Services.
