BearBucks

The BearBucks Program is UCA’s dollar exchange program that allows students, as well as faculty and staff members to utilize their BearCard Mobile to purchase products across campus and the Conway community with the ease of scanning their phone!


How Are BearBucks Different Than Dining Dollars?

BearBucks is a declining balance program similar to DD (Dining Dollars) and is available to students, faculty, and staff. BearBucks are sold directly through the BearCard Office.

BearBucks NEVER expire as long as the student is enrolled at UCA or the faculty/staff is affiliated with UCA.

Dining Dollars expire at the end of Summer II every year.


Where Can I Use BearBucks?
