Providence College students will soon be able to use their PC Cash, stored on their student IDs, at local participating vendors, say The Cowl, the school’s student-run newspaper.
Currently, CVS, Golden Crust, and Frankly’s Pizza have all signed contracts with Blackboard, who was contracted by the campus to implement the new payment system.
The campus’ Student Congress compiled a list of the top 10 businesses and requested Blackboard’s assistance in getting their participation – so more are expected to join the list of participating vendors.
Other businesses that were contacted include Shaws Supermarket, LiLi Wok, Dunkin’ Donuts and LaSalle Bakery.
A new online card office will enable students to manage their PC ID accounts and deposit PC Cash to their cards. Students will also have the option to have PC Cash automatically added to their account when their balance reaches a minimum.
