Adding Value to Cats Cache Guest Cards

Please note: Academic Computing Systems and Student Computing Clusters staff do not have access to make any changes to Cat's Cache accounts. This guide to the use of Cat's Cache guest cards is provided solely to assist Computing Clusters patrons; if you encounter any problems with the guest cards or the online Cat's Cache system, please contact UNH Dining at 862-1821, or visit the UNH Dining office in Holloway Commons.

To add funds to your Cat's Cache guest card:

1. Go to the UNH Dining website: http://www.unh.edu/dining/

2. In the blue sidebar on the right side of the page, under "Related Links", click on "Cat's Cache".

3. In the middle of the page, click on "Online Cat's Cache Access".

4. This will bring you to the Cat's Cache Login page. Scroll down to the bottom of the green box on the left, where it says "Need an account?", and click "Create".

5. Here it will ask you to create your account. Fill in the information as requested.

Attention: where the form asks for "Campus ID number", enter the nine-digit number in the lower right corner of your guest card, and NOT your social security number.

6. Click "Submit". It will process the information, and bring you to another page that reads "An account was successfully created," and repeat back the username you selected. Click "OK".

7. You should now see a Welcome message at the top, and the green box to the left reading "Welcome to the My Accounts Module." Directly under it, under the heading "Account Balance", you should see a line reading "CATS CACHE" with the balance of your card ($0.50 if you have not yet used it).

The third header in this same box is "Deposits". Click on it to add money to your guest card.

8. The name and email you just registered should show up under the header "Select An Account". Be sure the drop-down menu next to "Account" reads "CATS CACHE".

Under "Credit Card Information", enter the information for the card you wish to use. Specify an amount to add to your Cat's Cache guest card, and then click "Submit".

9. On the following page, the system will confirm the amount you wish to add and the details of the credit card you wish to pay with. If all is in order and you wish to proceed, click "Submit".

10. The next page should display a confirmation that your transaction is complete, and the system will add the funds to your Cat's Cache guest card. This process usually takes only a minute or two.

Any problems encountered with this system should be referred to UNH Dining. Their phone number is 862-1821, and their office is located downstairs in Holloway Commons.
