IMPORTANT
Information that you need to know about your
TIGER CARD
|
Please be prepared to
submit a valid photo ID (Drivers License) when obtaining
your Card.
|
All on-campus students are required
to have a Student ID Card.
The Tiger Card may be
obtained
at the Card Center, Memorial Union.
If you choose the Tiger Card option in TigerEnroll for your refund option, all excess financial
aid
will be applied to your individual Tiger Card debit
account (Commerce Bank).
The Tiger Card is valid for
the time that you are enrolled as a student at
Fort Hays State University.
|
- The Tiger Card is property of Fort Hays State University.
It must be carried at all times and presented to
university officials upon request. The Tiger Card
is non-transferable.
|
- Your Tiger Card does NOT EXPIRE as
long as you are enrolled at FHSU. You do NOT need
to replace your card each semester or year.
|
- Your first Tiger
Card is issued to you for a $5 fee. There is a $10 replacement fee
for any card that is lost, stolen, thrown away or
mutilated. If you need to cancel your card or if
you lose your card contact the Card Center and/or
Commerce Bank.
|
- Once a Tiger Card has been cancelled it can NOT
be reactivated if found. However, any money put on
the vending stripe of the cancelled card can be transferred
to your new card by bringing BOTH cards to the Card
Center.
|
- DO NOT lend your card to someone else. This will
prevent fraud and unauthorized use of the features
and services of the Tiger Card.
|
- DO NOT punch holes, cut, scratch or otherwise deface
your Tiger Card. Such damage may render your card
invalid and may also cause damage to the vending
stripe or merchant stripe. Storing the Tiger Card
back to back with a credit card may cause the stripe
to become demagnetized.
|
- Money placed on the vending account (small magnetic
stripe) does NOT expire and has a maximum limit of
$50. Cash-to-card machines are located in the Memorial
Union, Forsyth Library, McMindes Hall, Wiest Hall,
and the Wooster Laundromat. We do NOT recommend carrying
any more money on this account than you would normally
spend in 10 days time. Money stored on this stripe
is NOT secured by a PIN number. Therefore, it can
be used by anyone else should you lose your card.
Copiers with card acceptors are located at Forsyth
Library.
|
- Money placed on the vending account is NOT refundable
unless you meet the following criteria:
1) You must be leaving FHSU (i.e. graduating, transfer,
etc.)
2) There must be $10 or more on the vending account
to qualify for a refund.
Refunds are issued in the form of a check, less $1.00
processing fee.
|
- Your current balance will always be displayed at
the beginning of each transaction after your card
has been inserted into a reader. As a general rule,
always check your vending account balance BEFORE
you make a purchase. That way you will always know
exactly how much money was on your vending account
just in case a malfunction occurs.
|
- In cases where there may be an equipment malfunction,
please notify the main office of the building housing
the equipment within 24 hours so that the specific
equipment can be checked. In cases where an ATM malfunction
occurs, please notify the Commerce Bank branch nearest
to that ATM machine.
