How does the Berklee Card
Account work?
The Berklee Card Account is a cashless, prepaid spending account on your Berklee
Card that is accepted on and around the Berklee College of Music campus. Unused
balances roll over semester to semester and year to year. You must add value to
your account before using your Berklee Card Account to make purchases. You must
have sufficient value available in your Berklee Card Account to pay for each
transaction. Each time you use your Berklee Card Account, the amount of the
transaction will be deducted from your account. You may not spend more value
than you have.

Both accounts are accessed by your Berklee Card.
All residential students are required to participate in a meal plan which varies

all dining locations on campus, the campus bookstore, select vending machines,
on-campus copy center and copy machines, and popular off-campus businesses. It
is designed to eliminate the need to carry cash around campus. You or your
parents must add value to your Berklee Card Account before using it for
purchases. Value in the Berklee Card Account rolls over from semester to
semester and from year to year.

card. Just present your Berklee Card for payment to the attendant at the
register. Your card will be swiped in a terminal and the transaction authorized.
You will need to sign a printed receipt of the approved transaction. At self
service locations, simply insert your card in the terminal.
