Adding money to your Account Balance
Before you begin, you must have funds available on your copy/print Account Balance in order to copy or print on the Xerox machines. You can add money to your account in two ways:
1. To add funds to your PCounter account Online go to: https://uchastings.PCounterwebpay.com
Pcounter Web is a free, convenient and secure service. There is no fee to add funds online to your PCounter web account. Get $3 free on your PCounter web account! For a limited time, the "3 for Free" promotion, add a minimum $20 in one transaction on PCounter web and Hastings will add another $3. For example, if you add $20 to your PCounter web account you'll get the $20, and $3 will be added in the next 1-2 business days. (Adding $10 in two separate transactions does not qualify for receiving the additional $3.)
2. Visit the Business Center on the 1st floor of Kane Hall (200 McAllister building). For Business Center hours, please visit the Business Center website. When you add funds (of any amount) to your account from the Business Center there is a $1.00 transaction fee.
