Domer Dollars
What are Domer Dollars?
Domer Dollars are convenient electronic funds that are remotely programmed to your valid University of Notre Dame ID card (typically within 20 minutes of purchase).
Domer Dollars provide the power to make purchases at many on-campus businesses and also at select off-campus merchants without the need to carry cash or credit cards. Unlike a credit card, there are no mounting debts with Domer Dollars, no interest charged, and no monthly bill – just a record of the debits made from your already deposited funds.

How are Domer Dollars different from Flex Points?
Flex Points are an extension of the on-campus dining board plan and are accepted only in select on-campus retail food service establishments (excluding Legends and Sorin's). During the academic year, any remaining balance of Flex Points purchased during Fall Semester carries over to Spring Semester. At the end of the Spring Semester, and all Flex Point remaining balances expire and are not refunded. Flex Points purchased during the summer (called Summer Flex Points) are for use only in select on-campus retail food service locations and only during a specified summer date range. Flex Points may not be purchased by credit card.
Domer Dollars are much more versatile than Flex Points, with broader acceptance in more locations, both on and off campus. Additionally, Domer Dollars never expire as Flex Points do each year. Your Domer Dollar balance will carry over from year to year until the time you separate from the university. So long as your remaining balance meets the minimum requirement listed above you will receive a refund of unused Domer Dollars upon separation through an automated process. You may use Domer Dollars to make purchases at many select off-campus merchants in addition to the on-campus businesses, including both food and non-food related entities. (Certain items that are deemed not in accordance with a healthy community and Church teaching may not be purchased with Domer Dollars). Domer Dollars may be purchased by credit card, cash or check (details above). Domer Dollars make your ID card the one card you need for your campus life!
