Frequently Asked Questions
Who
can have a LuteBuck$ Account?
LuteBuck$
are available to the entire Pacific Lutheran University Community
- staff, students, alumni and faculty, retirees and even employee spouses
and dependents.
What
exactly is a LuteBuck$ Account?
Your LuteCard can work like an on-campus debit
card so you don't have to carry cash. The only difference is you cannot withdraw cash from
your PLU LuteBuck$ account. With a LuteBuck$ Account
your LuteCard can be used to make purchases where ever LuteCards
are accepted. Your account will automatically be debited and your
balance will be displayed on the cashier's screens. You can also
check your Lutebuck$ balance at any reader. You can request a LuteBuck$ statement any time online here.
What
if I lose my LuteCard?
You'll
have to replace your LuteCard at the Campus Concierge desk for a fee, but your account balances will be safe
as soon as your report your card lost.. Your money is on your
account and kept track of in the computer, not on the card like
a phone or copy card. If your card becomes demagnetized you will have to replace it but your LuteBuck$ are still safe. Your account is kept in the computer, not on your
card so your LuteBuck$ are safe.
Immediately
report your card lost to the LuteCard & Information Center during
office hours (253)535-7411, online at Report Lost Card, or call
Campus Safety & Information at (253)535-7441. They're available
24/7. As soon as a card is reported lost, it's no longer usable.
You are liable until you report it lost (unlike a credit card
there's not a liability limit) but once you do, you won't
lose a penny.
How
do I set up a LuteBuck$ account?
Your card is designed to work
like a debit card. If you have a LuteCard, you already have a LuteBuck$
account set up. Use your credit card or check card and buy
them over the phone (x7411) or even on the web at the PLU
Bookstore's website, LuteWorld. Add LuteBuck$ and be on your way to
the Espresso Cart. LuteBuck$ can be purchased with check, cash, money order or bank card. Deposits may be made any time during
the LuteCard & Information Center's hours.
Sounds
good, but what does it cost?
Just
a minute of your time. There's NO membership fee,
NO finance charges, NO bills, NO
check fee, NO ATM fee. You pay only the cost
of your LuteBuck$. They are dollar for dollar. Best yet, there's
no minimum balance or deposit - begin with 56¢ or $560.00. When
you want to add to your balance, there is NO minimum,
add as much - or as little - as you like. Just one word of caution,
once money is placed on your LuteBuck$ account, it's staying there.
You won't lose it, (it rolls over semester to semester) but you
cannot withdraw it until you officially leave the university.
LuteBuck$
make a great gift for a student or co-worker.
We'll add the LuteBuck$ to an account, and
then send a gift certificate letting the lucky recipient know
you've been so generous. We can even charge it to a departmental
account. |
