Students at Arkansas State University, Jonesboro, can now use their campus cards to pay for on-campus parking by simply swiping their cards at designated meters.
“We are providing as many payment options as possible to our students to increase convenience,” said a university spokesperson. “This will allow students to make non-cash payments without incurring a credit card charge.”
The university is also looking into allowing the campus card to be used at nearby off-campus merchants, such as restaurants, bookstores and convenience stores.
