Campus Card
In our canteens and cafeterias, you can pay easily, quickly and conveniently with the Campus Card or the university chip card. Chip cards are the regular means of payment for students and staff for canteen meals. Students and staff receive the specified canteen prices in combination with a valid chip card; the guest price must be paid in cash. We also recommend that guests pay much faster with the Campus Card. Payment with the Campus Card is not possible in Wedel.
Incidentally, you can also use the Campus Card to pay at various photocopiers on the Christian-Albrechts-Universität campus.
You can obtain the Campus Card for €20, €8 starting credit and a €12 deposit at the Kiel, Heide and Lübeck campuses.
In Flensburg, there are still remaining stocks of the old cards at €15 with €7.50 starting credit and a €7.50 deposit.
The new cards have a different sales price due to the increased production costs. Of course, both cards can be used at all locations.
You are no longer near your campus, but would like to return your card? Then use the return form. We have it in German and English.
You can get the Campus Card in:
- Kiel: in the cafeterias and café lounges and in the Mensa Kesselhaus, Mensa TF Gaarden and Schwentine Mensa
- Lübeck: in the cafeterias and in the canteen administration
- Flensburg: in the café lounge of the Mensa and in the B building
- Heide: in the canteen
You can top up your card using your EC card or banknotes at the top-up machines in the entrance area of the canteens and check the current amount on the additional card testers. The validity of the Campus Card is limited to a maximum of one year for students. It can be extended at all Campus Card points of sale on presentation of a valid student ID and, if applicable, an identity card.

Tip:
It is best to make a note of the multi-digit black card number printed on the edge. If you lose your Campus Card, you can use this number to block it and pay out any credit on the card.
