Flexi Dollars

Flexi Dollars (aka Flexi$) work like a debit account and can be spent at all campus dining locations, as well as the Bay Tree Campus Store and the Course Materials Website, independently-operated campus locations like Iveta Cafe, select off-campus vendors, and for delivery from local restaurants via Grubhub.

  • 10% off your purchases at the cafes, coffee bars, and markets operated by UCSC Dining when you pay with Flexi Dollars.
  • Discounted access to the all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet at the Dining Halls.
  • Flexi Dollars are accepted by some off-campus vendors (see list below). Must use Student ID card at vendors—can't use the GET app.
  • Flexi Dollars can be used for payment in the GrubHub app for delivery or pickup from many local restaurants!
  • Flexi Dollars are purchased via the GET app or the GET website (get.cbord.com/ucsc). Check your account balance and add more Flexi$ to your account anytime with GET. Parents/family can also add Flexi$ to their student's account through GET.
  • Once you have Flexi$ on your account, you can use your Student ID card or the GET app on your mobile phone to make purchases at UCSC Dining locations.
  • Instructions on How to Purchase Flexi Dollars
  • Flexi$ can be used to supplement a meal plan or can be purchased alone.
  • Flexi$ carry over from quarter to quarter and expire at the end of spring quarter (June 16, 2025).
  • Flexi Dollars are non-transferable and non-refundable (unless the student withdraws from the university).
