Welcome to UMaine!

Please note: Our office has moved to Hilltop, Room 103L.

The MaineCard Service Center is open from  7:30 a.m.–4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Please note the following restrictions, put in place for the safety of students and staff:

  • Only one customer will be permitted into the MaineCard office at a time
  • Please observe social distancing requirements while waiting outside the office

The MaineCard is the official University of Maine ID. Cardholders include full- or part-time students, faculty and staff. While you are associated with the University, the MaineCard is the only card you will need to access facilities, services and optional spending accounts while on campus.

Contactless options

A chip embedded in new MaineCards allows contactless entry instead of swiping in the following locations:

  • Residence halls
  • Purchasing food using Dining Funds or Black Bear Bucks
  • Reserving or checking out materials at Fogler Library
  • Using the UMaine Kiosk lockers at the Package and Postal Center

To enter your room or pick up a package, your card does need to be swiped.
