WICKit Dollars

WICKit Dollars are not tied to your College student account. WICKit is a declining balance and can be used in campus food establishments, the Bookstore, library, and campus vending machines. Funds deposited to WICKit will be carried over from one semester to the next. Upon separation from the college, a refund of the unused Hawks and WICKit balances over $5.00 will be refunded. Any funds under $5.00 will be forfeited.

WICKIT FAQS

All students (part-time and full-time) are eligible for a WICKit card. All faculty and staff who are paid directly by the College are eligible for a WICKit card. ARAMARK employees may also get a WICKit card.

New students will get their first WICKit card during Welcome Weekend. If your WICKit card is lost or damaged, you can get a replacement WICKit card (replacement fee of $15 may apply) from the Technology Resource Center in Clark Hall Room 150 during regular business hours.

Remember that your WICKit card is your personal identification card and much more. Like a debit card, if you lose your WICKit card and someone finds it, they could use your funds, so it is important to deactivate your lost card as soon as possible. You can deactivate your WICKit card by logging into the WICKit eAccounts site. You can access the site from https://www.hartwick.edu/eAccounts. You should also report lost or stolen cards to Campus Safety by calling 607-431-4111.

All new cards take approximately 15 minutes to be processed by our computer system; after that, your card will be fully activated.

You can add funds to your WICKIT card in two ways: The cashier in the Finance Office will accept cash or check, or you can make a deposit online using Visa, MasterCard or Discover. Guests/parents can also go online to deposit funds on your WICKit card. You can access the site from the Hartwick home page > Students > Offices and Services > WICKit eAccounts, or directly at https://www.hartwick.edu/eAccounts.

Because of the sensitivity of the chip and magnetic strip on your card, we recommend that you NOT punch any holes in your WICKit card. We recommend a plastic card sleeve with a lanyard to hold your card. NOTE: If your card should fail for any reason, and you have punched a hole in your card, you will automatically be charged for a replacement card.

No, WICKit cards are durable and have a protective laminate on them, so they should last a long time. Here are some simple tips to extend the life of your WICKit card:

  • Keep your card away from items that can generate a magnetic field (computers, refrigerators, microwaves, stereo speakers).
  • Keep the card away from excessive heat.
  • Do not put the card through the washing machine or dryer.
  • Do not use the card as a windshield scraper or a tool.

There are 3 ways to check your balance:

  • Every time you use your card to purchase something, your balance as of that transaction is displayed on the receipt.
  • You can ask any manned location which accepts the WICKit card to tell you your balance.
  • Check your balance at WICKit eAccounts. You can access the site from https://www.hartwick.edu/eAccounts.

There is no limit to how much you can add, but most students start with about $100 until they see how much they use the card.
