How to set-up your Upay account and purchase tickets

 

 

Pre-paid Top-up System

The College is operating a pre-paid top up system for all students.  At the start of each term your Upay account will be credited with an amount equal to the minimum spend requirement and this amount will be charged to the corresponding College bill issued prior to the start of each term.

You can add money to top-up your account on the Upay website, using a debit or credit card.

Select either:

Auto top-up:  specify an amount to add automatically when your balance is low;

Manual top-up: get an alert (sms, email) when your balance is low to remind you to top-up.

Guest top-up allows a third party (such as a parent) to add money direct to your account. They just need to know your CRSid., eg. xyz123. They do not have access to your expenditure.

 

Refund of balances held at the end of the course

If you have any money left on your Upay account when you have completed your course at Peterhouse you are able to request a refund online.  This can be done by logging into your Upay account and choosing account closure.  There will be an option to request a refund of the outstanding amount to the debit/credit card you have previously used to top-up.  Please note that this refund is limited to £20.  In the unlikely event that you have more than £20 on your account when you leave, you will need to contact the Accounts Office on studentbills@pet.cam.ac.uk to request a refund.  Please see note below, in Section 6, regarding the Minimum Spend Requirement.  Your Upay account will be closed down 16 months after graduation and any unclaimed balances will be donated to the Amalgamated Clubs at Peterhouse.
