Overview

These instructions explain how to check your balances and make a one-time deposit to your CrimsonCard.

Deposit funds

Funds added using the instructions below can be used for printing (if no allotment is available), with participating on- and off-campus vendors, and more. For details, see Paying with CrimsonAccounts.

Note:

A parent does not need third-party access to make a deposit to a student's CrimsonCard. Parents and Affiliates can follow the steps below to make a deposit without IU Login and Two-Step Login (Duo).

Go to CrimsonCard and, from the menu in the top right, select Using your Card, and then select Making a Deposit.
On the "Making a deposit" page, select Online, and then enter the requested information:
- The cardholder's University ID or affiliate ID
- Either the cardholder's IU username or last name
Click Submit.
Enter the amount to deposit and your email address.
Select the checkbox to agree to the terms and conditions, and then click Submit.
Click Proceed to Pay.
Select the desired amount.
Select a payment option, and then follow the prompts to complete the deposit.

Another option is to use the "Make a deposit to your CrimsonCard" app on One.IU. This takes you directly to the website account page.

Check balances

Go to CrimsonCard, select Manage Your ID Card, and log in if needed.
From the top of the page (or from the menu), click MY ACCOUNTS. Balance information will appear on the page. For details, click the plan name.

Note:

Funds added using the Deposit funds instructions above will be added to your CrimsonCash balance. Other balances may appear if they're available to you (for example, IU Print allotments).
