      CAMPUS BANKING FAQ

      Learn more about U.S. Bank campus banking solutions.

      Give your employees and students the campus banking solutions they need to succeed. Add banking functionality to your school ID card to make it easier and more convenient for your campus community to get cash and make purchases. Bank with the most reliable ATM networks in the country, on-campus branches and customer advisory centers for banking convenience.

      This FAQ provides answers to some of the most common questions about our campus banking solutions.

      Contact us

      A campus card is a school ID card and U.S. Bank debit card…all in one! We add the banking functionality to your existing school ID card so your students, faculty and staff can link their ID card to a U.S. Bank checking account. This makes it easier and more convenient for them to get cash and make purchases.

      By partnering with U.S. Bank, you can count on the assistance and knowledge of our campus banking professionals throughout the process of implementing and growing your card program.

      When linked to a U.S. Bank checking account, the campus card can be used at PLUS®  ATMs globally and to make purchases anywhere debit cards are accepted.

      U.S. Bank offers a best-in-class Student Checking account with many features and benefits designed especially for students.

      U.S. Bank understands that you that your employees have specific banking needs, so we offer special Workplace Banking benefits designed exclusively for your faculty and staff that can be added to any U.S. Bank checking account.

      Opening a U.S. Bank checking account and linking it to their school ID card is an optional program for your students, faculty and staff.

      U.S. Bank will help promote all aspects of your ID card program and encourage participation by using creative marketing tools and events. All materials are customized, using your ID card artwork, school logo and custom website address.

      U.S. Bank will work with your school to identify ideal opportunities to hold on-campus tabling events and take applications at campus locations. Tabling sessions are held around major events such as re-carding, orientations and during back-to-school periods.

      No. As a leader in ID card integration, we can work within the technical requirements of virtually any card system for a seamless incorporation of the banking functionality. And we can do it on your timeline, making your implementation quick and easy.

      No. U.S. Bank does not ask the school to supply any student, faculty or staff information.

      All cardholders must report a lost or stolen ID card to the school’s card office to deactivate the campus functions and to be issued a new card. If the ID card was linked to their bank account, the cardholder must also report it to U.S. Bank. The school will have no liability for fraudulent use or overdrafts arising from campus card transactions.

      Additionally, our customers are protected by the U.S. Bank Zero Liability Policy1, which means that cardholders will not be held responsible for any unauthorized purchases as long as the card is reported missing right away.

      Yes. ATMs are an integral component of our campus banking solution. As a result, the placement of at least one U.S. Bank ATM on your campus is vital to the program's success.

      We are currently operating full-service branches and customer advisory centers at many colleges and universities. Please contact a partnership manager to find out more about placing a branch on your campus.

      As part of our commitment to community involvement, U.S. Bank offers a series of online and in-person financial wellness seminars that gives your students, faculty and staff the opportunity to learn important money management skills.
