IU CARD

The IU Card (Caixa Institutes and Universities) at the Universidade de Lisboa results of the signature of a cooperation protocol, aiming mutual collaboration between this university and Caixa Geral de Depósitos, for the creation of financial products and services for members of this community. Equipped with EMV Chip for greater security in financial transactions and with contactless technology, it allows the use of access control systems by card approach.

In order to streamline your academic life, your card is already associated with some services. In particular, in the social services is used for access control in some of our facilities and by charging your user account allows you to pay for meals in our refectories.

If you are a student of the Universidade de Lisboa, when registering at your institution, you will be given a temporary card, so that you can immediately take advantage of the various services at your disposal, until your customized IU card is ready. If you are an employee (teacher, non-lecturer or researcher), upon admission to one of the organizational units of the Universidade de Lisboa, the human resource services will provide data for the issuing of your card with Caixa Geral de Depósitos.

The production of the card is the responsibility of Caixa Geral de Depósitos.

Pin Code

Your card has a secret PIN code associated with it. This code has nothing to do with other codes of your personal cards. This is a numeric code with 4 digits that will be linked to your card which you must customize later, so that is only known by you. By default, all cards have a PIN number of 1234 and can be changed in the kiosks, after login (Change Pin). This code is not recorded on the card but in the database.

Charging Card

Your account can be credited using the kiosks available in the food units or using the MBWay platform, available from your identification area on our website (PC version or for mobile devices).

In these kiosks you can choose to: charge in cash, charging through ATM or MBWay.

2. Enter your PIN code;
3. Select the Load option and choose your favourite payment:
   1. Cash - The kiosk waits for you to enter the amount (coins and / or banknotes) into the appropriate slots and displays the sum of the entered values. If you drop the operation and press the button to return values, if the kiosk no longer has any changes, a receipt will be printed so that you can raise the amount in any SASULisboa treasury. When you use your card all the money you load will be assumed in the charge.
   2. ATM - The kiosk waits for you to enter the amount you want to credit. The minimum value is € 10.00. The message In Processing is displayed and the operation control passes to the ATM terminal;
