Jacksonville University, Fla. has teamed with campus card service provider CardSmith for the expansion of its Dolphin 1Card program. The Dolphin 1Card is JU’s official campus ID card, and key to a range of campus facilities and services, including library privileges, door access and dining plan transactions.

Student also use their Dolphin 1Card to access to Dolphin Dollars, a pre-paid spending account that students can use at campus dining locations, the bookstore, copy machines, pay-for-print stations and more.

CardSmith’s software as a service transaction processing platform is replacing the campus’s old card system, and enabling new capabilities, services and features. Students and parents will now have 24/7 access to an online account center where they both can add funds, view transactions, and manage account information. CardSmith will also manage a toll-free customer care service with live-agent support for parents, students and other stakeholders.

And starting this fall, students will be able to use Dolphin Dollars at local businesses near the JU campus, and at the network of merchants that participate in the University of North Florida’s Osprey 1Card program.
