 Improve Student Life

50% A panel of industry experts recently predicted that in the next few years, 50% of American educational institutions will adopt an off campus system.

Students across the country are starting to expect off campus functionality. By offering our service, universities are able to deliver a significant improvement in student life. Expanding off campus will improve student and parent satisfaction... pushing participation rates higher and increasing overall deposits.

This growth in deposits will lead to increased card usage in every aspect of on campus life. Data shows on campus expenditures grow nearly 15% in the year following the introduction of an off campus merchant program.

Overwhelming Student Demand
Currently, over 75% of student expenditures occur off campus. According to RFID News and the National Association of Campus Card Users (NACCU), the trend of colleges and universities expanding programs to include local area merchants is driven by overwhelming student demand. A panel of industry experts recently predicted that in the next few years, 50% of American educational institutions will adopt an off campus program.

Parents and students like the flexibility that using their campus card to pay for services now provides — and want to extend it to include a network of off campus merchants. They also want to retain the peace of mind that bank labeled debit cards can't provide.

Launching an off campus program keeps your school ahead of the curve by enabling you to offer more student focused services to prospective students.
