KCash

KCash allows students, faculty and staff to conveniently make purchases on campus using their campus ID card as an on-campus debit card anywhere that accepts KCash. KCash can be used on campus to purchase textbooks and school supplies from the KSU Bookstore, snacks from The Market, meals at our dining halls, restaurants and the food trucks, and to use the student printers.

Remember to Update Your Talon Card

Update your Talon Card at a HotSpot to refresh your access. Hold your Talon Card up to the HotSpot until the flashing/beeping stops, then repeat every seven days. If you have a previous version of the KSU campus ID card, don’t worry, it still works, and you are not required to replace it.
