The AUT Wallet is your personal account – you can top it up easily online (or on campus) and use it to buy certain goods and services. You can use your wallet via the AUT App to pay for shuttle bus rides or buy items in some campus food outlets. Find out how you can top up your AUT Wallet funds, pay for items, and view your balances.
You’ll be asked to agree to the AUT Wallet’s Terms and Conditions the first time you access it. The Terms and Conditions are below.
You can top up your shuttle bus and food outlet balances via the AUT App, using your credit card in the AUT Wallet. You can also top these up (and your print and internet balances) by:
These top-ups will show in your AUT Wallet immediately.
At the moment you can't use the AUT Wallet to move your funds between different services like your print, internet, and shuttle bus balances. To do this:
Your AUT Wallet is part of the AUT App, so you need the app before you can use your wallet. If you don’t have the AUT App, find out more about the features it has to offer and how to download it.
If you already have the AUT App, make sure you have the latest version installed.
Your AUT Wallet is your personal account at AUT, able to be used for purchasing services at AUT such as printing, internet access over the AUT network, and the shuttle bus between City and South campuses. From time to time, AUT will add other items to this list.
The top-up process uses a standard third-party payment facility. Your credit/EFTPOS card details are not shared with AUT at any time during the process. If your credit card/EFTPOS payment was successful, then your balance in the AUT Wallet is updated immediately.
If your top-up is declined by the payment facility and you believe it should have been accepted, you need to contact your bank – AUT cannot assist in these cases.
The third-party payment facility may charge a bank fee for the top-up service. AUT does not have any involvement in this process and does not receive any part of these fees.
AUT does not charge any fees for any transactions made using the AUT Wallet.
No interest is payable on balances in the AUT Wallet. AUT expects that students will not maintain large balances.
The minimum amount that can be topped up in one transaction is $1, and the maximum is $100.
The funds in your AUT Wallet are only able to be used for purchasing goods/services at AUT – not at other outlets.
You can request a refund by emailing walletrefund@aut.ac.nz for any money which you personally have topped up – you can’t be reimbursed for funds which AUT has provided (like a printing allowance as part of your enrolment).
If you don’t have a smartphone, you can use your Student ID to pay for rides on the AUT shuttle bus. Email the AUT Transport team to register your Student ID barcode against the AUT Wallet.
