UMoney is a powerful feature of your Griz Card. It is a prepaid flexible spending account that allows you to purchase food, goods, and services at over 100 different locations both on and off campus. Discover UMoney, the safe and easy way to make purchases using your Griz Card....just swipe and go!
Convenience, flexibility, safety and discounts. Don't want to write a check for just a coffee or handful of copies? The vending machine is flashing correct change only? Don't want to carry cash? UMoney is a fast and secure way to make purchases both on and off campus, and makes it easy to budget your money throughout the semester. Some on campus and most off campus merchants will give you a discount when you pay with Griz Card UMoney. Be sure to ask.
Your UMoney card is also your University ID Card, so when you present it for purchases you will be providing the merchant with your photo and signature. Our merchants are then responsible to make sure the person using the Griz Card matches the photo ID and signature.
You cannot withdraw cash from the UMoney account unless you are withdrawing from UM, graduate at the end of a semester, are terminated as an employee, or have other special circumstances. If you meet the requirements, the entire UMoney balance must be withdrawn from the account. There is a $10.00 processing fee for UMoney refunds. The fee will be deducted from the UMoney balance. A refund check will be issued by Business Services within 15 business days. If you owe money to the University, the refund will be applied to your balance due. Refunds will be mailed to the cardholder's current mailing address in Cyberbear. Please visit the Griz Card Center to complete a UMoney Refund Form.
No way! UMoney funds are held in trust by The University of Montana and managed by the Griz Card Center. The money is yours to spend at participating merchants, regardless of the term or year. After 18 months of either no activity on your card or University affiliation, our office will start to close the UMoney account.
Getting started is easy and free. There are no forms to fill out or fees to pay and no minimum deposit is required-simply activate your account with an initial deposit.
