How do I get to the laundry feature? I don't see it anywhere on my Home or Browse screen.

To see the Laundry tile, you must:

• Have a residence hall contract with University Housing
• Connect with your NetID
• Set your user role to “University Student” (Settings > Privacy Center > Personal Information > Who You Are)

Students living in off-campus housing or private certified housing do not have access to the Laundry feature.

How do I show the wallet?

To see your Wallet you must:

1. Sign in with your NetID
2. Set your role to Student or Employee.

Tap the Wallet button at the bottom of the screen after you have changed your settings.
