Flex Account
What's Flex?
Flex is the University鈥檚 flexible spending (debit) account that is automatically applied to your Pioneer ID Card. Unlike meal plan cash, Flex uses actual currency that you deposit using a banking account, giving you full control over where, and how much of your money is spent. It provides security and convenience by allowing you to make cash-free purchases both on and off campus for a wide variety of products and services.
- Your funds are safely stored in the University鈥檚 central database, and your balance is protected as long as you promptly report and deactivate a lost or stolen ID card.
Flex funds roll over from quarter to quarter and year to year. You will retain access to your funds as long as you remain an actively enrolled student or current employee. Before your departure from the University, ensure that you submit a Flex Refund so that any remaining funds are returned to you.听
