Running low on Tiger Bucks? Then grab your credit card, log on to GET, and follow the instructions for recharging Tiger Card.


Trinity University parents and families: you too can add funds to a Tiger Card account, just make sure you have your student’s 7-digit ID number, then go online to make a deposit.

You can also add funds at any Card-Value Station. This allows you to add funds to existing Tiger Card's or Cub Cards. You can add cash in the increments of $1, $5, $10 or $20. You can also contact the Tiger Card Office (210-999-7825) if you prefer to use a credit card to add Tiger Bucks to your Cub Card.

Please be sure to have the exact amount of cash you want to put on the card, as the Card-Value Stations do not give change. Keep in mind that there are NO refunds for unused balances, so please only add the funds you plan on using.

If you would rather use cash or check to refill your card, follow the instructions below:

Cash or Credit Card

To add funds to your account in person, swing by the Tiger Card Office (Storch 005) or any of these Card-Value Station locations between 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. on weekdays:

Check

You can also add money to your account using checks! Make sure to jot down the student ID number in the “Memo” portion of the check.

You can either drop it by the Tiger Card Office or mail it to the following address:

Trinity University - Tiger Card Office
1 Trinity Place
San Antonio, Texas 78212

Please note that cash advances are not available from your Tiger Bucks Account.

During regular business hours (8 a.m. - 5 p.m. every weekday), you can also use a credit card to add funds to your account by calling the Tiger Card Office at 210-999-7825.
A Note on Balances

Tiger Bucks balances transfer from one year to another and are not cleared out at the end of any semester.

Trinity University reserves the right to charge a Tiger Bucks account inactivity fee on funds left on deposit in accounts with no record of activity (for a period of time that exceeds one year from the time of original or last deposit). This charge will continue until account activity resumes or the account balance reaches zero ($0.00). At this point, the account will be closed. Account inactivity fees will cease to be assessed if or when the account activity resumes.

 

Report a Lost Tiger Card

If you lose your Tiger Card, you can disable it using the GET app. If you have any issues with accessing the GET app, please contact the Tiger Card Office (210-999-7825) or TUPD (210-999-7070 non-emergency).

In the event you are reporting a lost or stolen card after regular business hours, contact your RA to discuss options for obtaining a temporary replacement card. The temporary replacement will allow you access to residence halls and your living space but unfortunately it will not provide you with access to your meal plan or Tiger Bucks.

You will not be held responsible for any amount charged to your account after it is designated as “lost” in the GET app or portal. If you do not report your Tiger Card lost, you will be held responsible for all charges made from it - please DO NOT wait to report it lost in the app.

There is no charge or fee for the replacement of a Tiger Card if the issue was caused by normal wear and tear.

If you find a card, please drop it by the Tiger Card Office (Storch Building 005) or the Trinity Police Department (538 Kings Court) as soon as possible.
