FAQs

If my phone dies, how do I get into my residence hall?

A: If your phone runs out of battery power, you will be able to access your residence hall.

For iPhone users: iPhone users may run their phone in Express Mode with power reserve to access their Apple Wallet for up to five hours after your phone begins to run on its power reserve. If Express Mode fails during business hours, visit the 49er Card Office in the Popp Martin Student Union or the loan key desk to pick up a temporary card. After hours, visit the loan key desk.

Learn more about Express Mode.

For Android users: If your device runs out of battery, we recommend that you visit the 49er Card Office in the Popp Martin Student Union or the loan key desk to pick up a temporary card. After hours, visit the loan key desk.

Is 49er Mobile ID going to replace all physical ID cards?

A: The Card Office is using a phased approach to rolling out the 49er Mobile ID program. Each year, incoming students will be encouraged to adopt 49er Mobile ID instead of having a physical ID card printed.

Students, faculty and staff who have a physical ID card will not be required to adopt 49er Mobile ID and may continue using their physical ID cards until their ID card expires or requires renewal.

Do I have to buy a 49er Mobile ID-compatible phone to get an ID?

A: No, if you do not have an NFC-enabled device, or you are unable to download the Transact eAccounts app, you may visit the 49er ID Card Office in the Popp Martin Student Union to have a physical 49er Card printed. Please bring an official government-issued identification card like a driver’s license, when you visit the office. If you receive a physical ID card, you will no longer be eligible for the 49er Mobile ID program.
