DOING BUSINESS OFF CAMPUS WITH
TIGERBUCKS!
THE
TIGER IS LOOSE-OFF CAMPUS!
By now we hope that you have noticed some the materials advertising the
off campus merchants who have contracted to accept Trinity University
Tigerbucks as a form of payment for goods and services in their
establishments. These merchants recognize the value Trinity University
(TU) students as customers and welcome you to their establishments.
WHAT IT IS
The Off Campus Vendor program is a result of a partnership between the TU
Association of Student Representatives (ASR), The Tiger Card Office, our
corporate partners, Off Campus Solutions, JSA Technologies, and the local
vendors who have agreed to accept Tiger Bucks as a form of payment. Area
vendors currently under contract to accept Tiger bucks are listed on the
Tiger Bucks website www.tigerbucks.com new vendors are continually being
added, check the site frequently to see who is new!
HOW IT WORKS
• The off campus vendor program operates similarly to the process used on
campus for Tiger Bucks sales.
• Merchants are required to insure that the person presenting the Trinity
ID card as payment is in fact the person pictured on the ID card.
Merchants are required to confiscate cards present to them by anyone other
then the owner.
• Illegible, defaced, invalid or unreadable cards will not be accepted.
• All sales must be entered into the merchant’s point of sale system by
swiping a valid Trinity ID card at the time of sale, at the merchant’s
place of business.
• Merchants are not permitted to manually key in ID numbers into the point
of sale system to post sales.
• Lost or stolen cards will not be accepted.
• Sales are posted in real time to student accounts. Accounts with
insufficient funds on deposit to cover the amount of the sale will not be
accepted.
• Sales are only processed using Tiger Bucks Accounts. Meal plans &
university departmental charge sales are not accepted off-campus.
• Student Patrons have the option of adding gratuities to their Tiger
Bucks transaction at the time of sale.
• Student Patrons will be required to sign the merchant’s sales receipt at
the time of purchase.
• Transaction activity can be viewed on student accounts via the
www.tigerbucks.com web site, so be sure to sign up and manage your
account.
• Student patrons requesting refunds or credits for purchases made using
Tiger Bucks will direct their request directly to the Merchant at the
Merchants place of business.
• Merchants by the terms of their agreement are prohibited from charging
service fees or higher then listed prices for sales posted to Tiger Bucks.
• Look for “We accept Trinity University Tiger Bucks” signs/banners in local businesses
off campus. Encourage your favorite merchants not yet participating to
join the program by contacting Off Campus Solutions.
• Watch the www.tigerbucks.com web site for student specials or “virtual
coupons” offered by participating vendors.
