University of Central Florida Partners with ITC Systems to Revamp Entire
Campus Card Services Program UCF
uses the campus card solution to manage a wide variety of activities including
transactional-based applications such as dining purchases, payment for
copy/print, vending, laundry services, bookstore purchases, library privileges
and tuition payment. The card works a lot like a debit card where your
transactions are recorded in real-time through an online account hosted by the
university. Students can monitor their personal accounts, purchase value and
initiate a PIN at the convenience of their own computer. UCF is a metropolitan research university that ranks as the
third largest university in the U.S. with more than 55,000 students who will
benefit from the new campus card implementation. "UCF
selected ITC Systems as the company that could deliver what our users want,”
said Tammy Kidder, UCF Card Services
Manager. “We are pleased with the implementation and the team, together we were
able to open on time when the students started their fall semester.” Merchants
like the campus card solution provided by ITC Systems as they are able to
obtain reports from the system via the web, relating to the purchases made at
their location. Administrators find the system easy to use and receive the
activities reports they need to operate the solution effectively. IT departments like the security
infrastructure that is built into the campus card solution, allowing the
encrypted transactions to be processed across the network and the web. “We
are very pleased to be working with UCF Card Services on this project to better
service their entire campus community,” notes Cam Richardson, CEO & President of ITC Systems. “Along with the
ITC Systems’ team, Tammy Kidder’s entire campus card services team deserves
great credit for helping pull everyone and everything together. A solution of
this complexity is never really completed, but is ongoing and forms the basis
of the relationship moving forward over the years.” To
ease the transition from the offline smart chip based system to the new online
campus card system, students are able to use the current encoded BIN on the
magnetic stripe of their ID card. To transfer the funds from the smart chip
there are Easy Convert stations around campus that they can use with no need
for staff intervention. ITC Systems serves colleges and universities and a host of other market
segments. ITC Systems' products are used in campus ID card privilege control,
access control, copy/print control, food service, laundry and other
institution-wide activities. Founded in 1989, ITC Systems serves clients in the
U.S.and Canada through offices in St Louis and Toronto. To learn more about ITC
