Tiger Bucks
Tiger Bucks is the currency used on campus for all transactions. You’ll use Tiger Bucks when you access the following services:
- Parking on campus
- Printing and copying services at the library and various labs on campus
- Food purchases on campus (if you don’t use Dining Dollars)
- Snack and Soda vending machines on campus
- Please note: Snack and Soda machines do not accept Dining Dollars, only Tiger Bucks, Credit Cards and Cash.
- At the Bookstore to purchase books, beverages, snacks and minor school supplies.
- Please note: Tiger Bucks cannot be used to purchase Gift Cards and Metrocards.
The great thing about Tiger Bucks is that the money you place on the card never expires. Put it on the card and it’s ready for use when you need it.
Dining Dollars
For dining, you’ll want to make sure that you’ve funded your card with Dining Dollars.
Dining venues on campus include:
- The Oakland Hilltop Kitchen
- The Q Cup Café (Library Building - 2nd floor lobby)
- QPAC Concessions (Humanities Building - QPAC Lobby)
The advantages of using Dining Dollars include:
- Major savings—all food purchases by students are tax-free!
- Earn a 5% bonus funds when you deposit $50 or more in your dining dollars account. Please note: The bonus funds can only be used when no Dining Dollars remain in your account.
- Be sure to use all the funds in your Dining Dollars and bonus accounts, as, unlike Tiger Bucks, they expire at the end of each spring semester.
Printing Services
Using the TigerCard, Students at Queensborough can, at no additional charge, print up to 300 single or double-sided black and white pages per semester using the various printing stations on campus. After 300 pages are reached, funds from Tiger Bucks will be used to print pages at 10 cents per page. Tiger Bucks can also be used to copy pages at a rate of 10 cents per page.
