U.S.
Bank and SDSU Make Campus Card Easier to Load
San Diego
State University (SDSU) students, faculty and staff are getting more than campus
identification with their SDSUcards this year. Now, the card that can pay for
certain on-campus services can be loaded quickly and easily via U.S. Bank
Internet Banking, if the cardholder is a U.S. Bank customer.
The
enhancement complements the functions that were introduced earlier this year
that allow the card to be used in ATMs globally.
Customers no longer have to use traditional means during regular business
hours to deposit cash on to their card, such as at a funds transfer station
(similar to an ATM) or other designated locations on campus. Now they transfer
money to the card accounts (known as SDSUfunds) from their U.S. Bank accounts,
24-hours-a-day from any computer via a secure Internet connection at usbank.com.
The new capability is key for
those late nights printing term papers in the computer lab or a last minute load
of laundry.
U.S. Bank won
the SDSU Campusbank Card contract in November 2002. The SDSUcard provides
official identification and access
to campus photocopy machines, student laundry facilities, health services, the
pharmacy and computer labs and now, banking programs.
U.S. Bank also offers Aztec Checking that carries the SDSU name and logo
for anyone (including alumni) who want to display SDSU pride whenever and
wherever they pull out their checkbooks.
