  • What is a Vanderbilt debit spending account?

    A Vanderbilt debit spending account functions in much the same way as a bank debit card. Funds are added to a debit spending account, which can be used at a number of听campus locations听to purchase various products and services. When a purchase is made using the Commodore Card, funds are automatically deducted from the debit account balance.
    Vanderbilt offers students two types of debit spending accounts:

    • Commodore Cash听is a debit spending account that can be used anywhere on or off campus where the Commodore Card is accepted for payment, which includes food and non-food purchases, such as books and supplies, vending, laundry, printing, and athletic events. Commodore Cash balances can be carried over from year-to-year on your student鈥檚 debit spending account.
    • Meal Money听is available only to meal plan participants and is used for food purchases. Meal Money must be depleted by the end of each spring semester as it is a 鈥渦se it or lose it鈥 plan. If a meal plan is canceled or removed during a semester, Meal Money is forfeited.
