TU Kaiserslautern - Chip card / Student ID
Kaiserslautern » Food and beverages » TU Kaiserslautern » Chip card / Student ID
You can use your student card (chip card) to make all payments in the Mensa, "Atrium", "Bistro 36" and at drinks vending machines in the Mensa building.
The chip card should be treated like cash, i.e. you cannot be compensated if it is lost or stolen. Please note the card number. This allows the card to be cancelled if it is lost.
Where can I get the chip card?
When you register, you will receive a letter asking you to provide a passport photo for the chip card to the Student Affairs Department. Once your documents have been checked, the chip card, which also acts as your student card, will be created and sent to you.
- Students will receive their student card as a chip card
- Staff will receive their staff ID card as a chip card
- People and groups of people who are neither staff nor students (e.g. institutes, cooperation partners, companies, guests) and who want to use the services provided by the students’ union and/or the University of Kaiserslautern can obtain a guest card from the Info-Point. A deposit of €10.00 is payable.
How do I add credit to my chip card?
You need to add credit to your chip card before you can use it for payment:
How do I pay with the chip card? How long is the chip card valid? Is it still possible to pay by cash in the Mensa and cafeterias? Information:
