Please note: Our MataCard Transact system will undergo a routine upgrade on Nov. 30, from 6 p.m. to midnight. While service disruptions are unlikely, we ask for your patience as staff address any temporary issues that may arise. Thank you.
MataCard is your secure digital CSUN ID card. It replaces the need for a physical ID card and serves as a convenient form of campus identification accessible via your iPhone, Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy or other eligible Android phones.
The digital ID card is your passport to a world of services and privileges on campus. You can also add money to your account and use your MataCard like a debit card for select purchases on campus — at the Campus Store, at eateries, at Mercado locations or when using beverage vending machines. (Some campus eateries even offer a 5% discount when you pay with your MataCard!) And, just like the physical ID card, the MataCard verifies your student or employee status for discounts from nearby merchants and restaurants.
