Functions of the Campus Card Augsburg
Student ID card
The Campus Card serves as evidence of your student status on campus as well as to external bodies. Please ensure that your Campus Card is validated for the current semester.
?
Library card
The Campus Card also serves as a library card. Your library user number is saved on the chip and printed on the card.
?
Following a once off personal visit to the Augsburg University of Applied Sciences library, you can use the Campus Card to borrow out books there in accordance with the local reader regulation.
?
Making personal payments
The Campus Card can be used for making payments at the University of Augsburg and at the Augsburg University of Applied Sciences. For example, it can be used to pay for food and drinks at the Mensa and other university cafeterias and bars run by Studierendenwerk. It can also be used to copy and scan on both campuses (e.g., using ¡°Follow-Me-Drucken¡± at the University of Augsburg campus).
?
If you want to use the electronic payment function, you have to first visit a credit loading machine (Aufwerter) to activate it. Here, you have to accept the user conditions for the payment function. To do this, hold the card up against the card reader on the machine and follow the instructions on the display. Following this, you can use the machine to top up your card. You can load up to €150 onto the card and pay with either cash or bank card. Up to €50 can be paid out again through one of the redeemer machines (R¨¹ckzahler).
