To set your PIN, please visit the Cardholder Portal, or visit the EFTPOS Loaders in the libraries.

Please visit the FAQ page for more information on your PIN.

CSU Card introduction

Commencing students will receive their CSU Card soon after accepting their offer of admission.

CSU Cards contain a contact-less mifare microchip and an antenna that enables access to a number of services across CSU. Such services currently include:

  • Identification on CSU campuses including entrance to examinations;
  • NSW Travel concession card (restrictions apply)
  • Dining Hall meals for on-campus students;
  • Access to buildings, including 24 hour computer labs;
  • Borrowing materials from the library;
  • Payment for photocopying
  • Purchase of goods in most on campus retail food outlets 
  • Purchase of internet quota
  • Bus fares on University operated bus service (Wagga campus)

Different cardholder categories and card types, mean that not all of the above services are available to all cardholders. The decision to authorise a particular service for a person lays with the provider of the service and the cardholder's supervisor or sponsor.
