Did you know you can use your CrimsonCard to make purchases?
You can deposit funds to your CrimsonCard (it’s called CrimsonCash) and use it to make purchases. It’s accepted as payment on any IU campus, both on- and off-campus, and on Grubhub! It’s incredibly convenient, simple to use, and you’ll even get access to a variety of discounts. To get started, visit crimsoncard.iu.edu, and click on Manage Your ID Card.
