Using Your Mobile ID On and Around Campus

  • Door Access (Residential Halls)
  • Dining Hall
  • Bookstore
  • On-campus point of sale (WPS Starbucks, The Grill, and Concession)

Name information on the Dillard Mobile ID comes to us from the university’s core business systems and needs to be updated there. Students should contact the Registrar’s Office. Faculty and staff should contact their HR representative to request updates. Once changes are completed, the updates will sync to the Dillard Mobile ID on your phone within 48 hours.

  • Account balances are currently only displayed on Apple & Samsung Galaxy devices
  • If your account balances are $0, they will not display until funds are added.
  • If you have available funds that are not displaying, please contact the ID Card Office at 504.816.4531 or email idphoto@dillard.edu.

A negative balance can occur if you make a transaction when a retail device is offline.  When the device comes back online and the transaction is posted, you will see a negative balance if there are not enough funds in your account to cover the transaction. 

Return to the location of the sale and ask the store to issue a credit card refund, then process the transaction against your Dillard Mobile ID.

As with your physical ID card, your Dillard Mobile ID will become inactive when you no longer meet eligibility requirements. If you transfer to another participating program or department at Dillard University, your credential will stay active and update accordingly.
