EagleBucks Program Updates

We are pleased to announce that 17吃瓜在线 has partnered with DishOut to provide merchant technology services for our EagleBucks off-campus merchant program. EagleBucks provides our community with a convenient, cashless way to make purchases on and off campus. This past June, as part of our聽first step in a long-term plan to strengthen and improve the user experience with the University One Card,聽we also launched a new integrated campus One Card transaction management platform, Atrium. The addition of our Dishout partnership is the next step in our plan.

On campus, EagleBucks may be used at all dining locations, The Bridge and The Davenport Lounge, campus store, laundry services in residence halls, printing services, vending machines, and for library charges. In addition, 18 off-campus businesses currently accept Eaglebucks. Our new partnership with Dishout also enables EagleBucks to be used for Grubhub food delivery from off campus and to expedite food pick-up orders from venues on campus.

We expect to recruit more merchant partners in the coming weeks as we grow our off-campus program for the 17吃瓜在线 community. As part of our outreach efforts, we are seeking a new grocery store partner to replace Whole Foods. Earlier this year, Whole Foods canceled its participation in university off-campus merchant programs nationwide. We will share an update on our efforts in the spring.听

As we continue to invest in and grow our Eaglebucks program, we invite the 17吃瓜在线 community to suggest businesses for us to recruit into the Program with our One Card Office via email at IDCARDS@american.edu.
