All accounts currently managed through Wiscard, University of Wisconsin-Madison’s photo ID, will merge into one June 1, according to a university press released emailed to students Tuesday.
Presently, Wiscard offers users access to three accounts: Campus Cash, Housing Food and Union Meal. Following the merger, any money deposited will go into a single account.
Until June 1, students should continue to deposit money into the separate accounts. After the transition, any remaining Campus Cash funds will be transferred into the new joint account.
Moreover, any University Housing balances of less than $20 will be moved to the new account. Balances of more than $20 will be sent to students’ mailing addresses four to six weeks after residence halls close May 17.
Wiscard will continue to be accepted at all current locations and students will still receive all discounts available to them now.
The merger will occur automatically and students will not be required to take any additional action.
