CardSmith rolls out Mobile Account Center

Andy Williams   ||   Dec 11, 2012  ||   

Campus card services provider CardSmith is launching a mobile version of its online Cardholder Account Center.

Students, parents and other authorized users can use their smart phone to check balances, view transactions and revalue their meal plan or Campus Cash accounts through a scaled down mobile-friendly version. The smart phone interface also enables users to switch to the full Web site if desired.

CardSmith tested the mobile account solution with a number of clients throughout the fall 2012 semester.

Usage and adoption have been high and performance has been good, CardSmith said. All current and prospective CardSmith clients can now add mobility to their cardholder account center for their programs without incremental charges or fees.

Enhancements for 2013 are already in the works and include digital offers/rewards and the ability to pay by phone.
