How it Works
Having a Lancer CA$H Account added to your Lancer Card provides the flexibility and convenience of a debit card to use at on and off campus locations. It relieves your need to carry cash or visit an ATM - making your money secure. It also provides an alternate way to pay when credit card services may be experiencing issues.
You will receive your remaining balance at the time of each transaction. Your balance will display on the reader or be printed on your receipt. You can also manage your account online or come into the Lancer Card & Campus Services Office for a report. Money can be added any time by various methods of payment such as cash, personal checks, money orders, traveler's checks, MasterCard or Visa. Your Lancer Card has your picture on it so you'll never need to worry about anybody using your card except you. It's that easy!
There are no transaction or set-up fees and no minimum balance requirements. You save money!
The Process
The Lancer CA$H account is placed on your Lancer Card (Longwood ID card). The account works like an electronic checking account.
Whenever you make a purchase, your card is swiped through the card reader and the purchase amount is automatically deducted from the balance in your prepaid account. The cashier ends each transaction by checking your balance for you.
When you're running low at any time during the semester, you may add money to your account (minimum deposit amounts may be required).
