CatCa$h is an optional account that students often find useful in rounding out their Meal Plan. CatCa$h is a taxable account that students can use on campus for non-food items like toothpaste, notebooks, printing, and laundry. CatCa$h is also accepted by select off-campus restaurants and retailers.

Add funds to your CatCa$h account by logging into the CatCa$h website using your NetID or Guest credentials. Funds can be added using your credit or debit card, or by charging your Bursar account. There is a minimum deposit of $5 and a maximum deposit of $1000.

CatCa$h funds are stored on your CatCard, making it a safe and convenient way to pay for non-food items on campus as well as off-campus meals. Having CatCa$h available means greater flexibility to socialize off campus and fewer unexpected charges to your credit card. Charging CatCa$h to your Bursar account allows you to pay for these expenses using Financial Aid or your college savings account (529 plan).

CatCa$h is accepted by over 35 off-campus restaurants and stores located near the University of Arizona. Check out the Where it Works section of the CatCa$h website for a complete list of on and off campus retailers that accept CatCa$h.

CatCa$h accounts are non-transferable and accessible only by the User. Identification may be required at the time of purchase. The CatCard is the sole means of accessing the CatCa$h account balance. The University of Arizona reserves the right to determine eligible goods and services. Restrictions apply to the purchase of alcohol, tobacco, gift cards, lottery tickets, and specific cosmetic procedures.

Funds deposited are non-refundable and cannot be withdrawn as cash. Unused CatCa$h expires at the end of each academic year. Refunds are only available under specific circumstances, including student withdrawal or graduation before the end of the academic semester.
