Recharge your U-Pass

Don’t throw away your U-Pass! Instead, recharge it at the recharging stations at the start of the fall and spring/summer terms.

Location of the recharging stations

Please note: The recharging are operational.

University Centre (UCU), ground level in front of the Campus Store, look for the blue U-Pass wall.
Roger Guindon Hall (RGN) in front of the library. Note: The recharging station at RGN is designated for Medicine and Health Sciences students only.

Spring-summer 2024: The recharging stations will be functional as of April 22, 2024.

How to recharge your U-Pass

Make sure to tap your U-Pass at the correct recharging station. Recharging stations are linked with the last two digits of your student number.
Remember, you only tap once and wait for the green light – it really is that easy!

If your U-Pass does not work, bring it to the uOttawa Card Service offices. If the card is damaged or the chip no longer works, you will need to pay a non-refundable replacement fee of $30. You will need to hand in your defective U-Pass before picking up a new one.
