What the Campus Card offers
Every student receives a chip card they use for several purposes on campus and in public transport. The electronic data on the cards is encrypted and does not contain any of the students' personal information.
Benefits
Compared with the old paper ID, the new Campus Cards are:
- More durable
- More difficult to forge
- Cheaper
Functions
- University library loans using the printed barcode or RFID technology
- ID with optional passport picture
- Anonymous cafeteria card for Berlin Student Services
Data privacy
The cards do not contain any personal details about the student in electronic format. The machines access all personal details online using a pseudonym, so they do not store any personal information either. The machines do not store photos. All communication is encrypted.
Campuscard App
The new Campuscard App for mobile devices supports the process of issuing and validating your card. In the future we will gradually implement the functionalities of the physical chip card which will make the plastic card obsolete for most students.
