Terms & Conditions

Electronic Fund Transfer services permit cardholders and others to transfer funds without the use of cash or checks. At Rollins College (the College), one means by which funds can be transferred is the use of the College's identification card, the R-Card. The R-Card may be used at a number of card readers (readers) on campus to make purchases from cardholder accounts. The Electronic Fund Transfer Act protects cardholders in their use of Electronic Fund Transfer services. At Rollins College these services are the Meal Plan and Flex Plan debit accounts. Described herein are terms and conditions for R-Card use at Rollins College and important notices regarding your rights under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act.
