Mobile Device MyJacks Card Credential Tips

  • Hold the top back side of your device toward the middle of the reader.
    • If you have an iPhone later than the 6 or 6 Plus, your card is set to Express Mode. This means you can simply tap your iPhone at a reader without a passcode, Touch ID or Face ID.
      • If you鈥檙e prompted for a passcode, tap the code to access your phone.
    • Hold the top of your mobile device or the display of your Apple Watch within a few centimeters of the middle of the card reader until you feel a vibration. You'll see Done and a checkmark on the display.
      • Please Note: If you鈥檙e using an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, double-click the Home button, then tap your default payment card and select your student ID. Rest your finger on Touch ID to authenticate and hold the top of iPhone 6 or 6 Plus near the contactless reader.
  • Your mobile device must be turned on, but it doesn't have to be connected to a network. You don't need to validate with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode, and you don't need to wake or unlock your device or open an app.
  • To display your MyJacks Card, open Apple Wallet, Google Wallet or Samsung Wallet.

Frequently Asked Questions
More FAQs
Can I (students) have more than one active MyJacks Card Credential?

No. When you come to campus, after you have submitted your photo or had your picture taken, you can then download your mobile MyJacks Card Credential. If your mobile device does work for the mobile ID, you will be issued a physical card.

What is the difference between Flex and Hobo Dough?

Flex dollars are your meal plan. Meal plan dollars can only be spent at the dining services locations and any unspent funds are lost after the spring semester. Hobo Dough can be spent at dining services as well as many other locations on and off campus and carries over from semester to semester as long as you are a student.

Am I charged sales tax at the dining service locations when I use my card?

Yes, sales tax is charged at all dining services locations whether you use cash or your card.

I need some cash; can I take it off my Hobo Dough?

No. Hobo Dough is not intended to be used like a bank card with ATM features. We also do not have cash on hand in the card office to give cash back. Once a student leaves school and is no longer a student, they can be refunded any funds over $5.00. A check will be mailed to the student from the 成人视频 Cashier's Office.

Can I transfer money directly from my bank account?

No. We currently do not have that capability.
