Rocket Card (ID)

Rocket Mobile ID FAQs

Your Rocket Cardnow available in Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, and Samsung Wallet!

The Rocket Mobile ID is now available to all current students and employees. Tap your iPhone, Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy, or other eligible Android phones at readers across campus to conveniently use your Rocket Mobile ID. Your Rocket Mobile ID acts just like your physical card and now you can add it to your preferred digital wallet.

Getting Started

Minimal set up is required to use your Rocket Mobile ID. Most users can begin using their Rocket Mobile ID on their phone in minutes. An approved photo is required so once you have requested and received your University of Toledo Rocket Card, that same  photo will be displayed on your Rocket Mobile ID.

If you haven’t done so already, set up your multi-factor authentication using IT's Multifactor Authentication link.

Device Setup Instructions & System Requirements

Please note it may take up to 60 minutes for your Rocket Mobile ID to be fully active and remember.

How do I update information on my Rocket Mobile ID? 

  • Any updates to your preferred name need to be made through your MyUT account via the Update Preferred First Name link.  Once changes are completed, the updates will sync to the Rocket Mobile ID on your phone within 48 hours. 

Why are my account balance(s) not displaying?

  • If your account balances are $0, they will not display until funds are added.
  • If you have available funds that are not displaying, please contact the Rocket Card Office at 419.530.5842 or email RocketCard@UToledo.Edu.

Why do I have a negative balance on my Rocket Mobile ID? 

  • A negative balance can occur if you make a transaction when a retail device is offline.  When the device comes back online and the transaction is posted, you will see a negative balance if there is not enough funds in your account to cover the transaction.

I used my credit card at a participating retail location when I meant to use my Rocket Mobile ID. What can I do to correct my payment source?

  • Return to the location of the sale and ask the store to issue a credit card refund, then process the transaction against your Rocket Mobile ID.  This option is not available at dining self service kiosks.

I am graduating or leaving the University. What happens to my Rocket Mobile ID? 

  • As with your physical Rocket Card, your Rocket Mobile ID will become inactive when you no longer meet eligibility requirements. If you transfer to another participating program or department at the University of Toledo, your credential will stay active and update accordingly.

Do I still need my physical Rocket Card? 

  • Yes, you will want to keep your physical Rocket Card in the event your Rocket Mobile ID becomes unavailable for use (i.e. your cellular device is lost or damaged). You may contact the ID Office to have your physical Rocket Card reactivated until your Rocket Mobile ID can be used once again.  This request would need to be sent via email to RocketCard@UToledo.Edu.
  • You will still need your physical Rocket Card for the following tasks:
    • Accessing your Follow Me print jobs from UToledo printers and copiers. 
    • Physically clocking in at the timeclocks if you are a CWA employee.

Can I still use my physical Rocket Card once I have created my Rocket Mobile ID? 

  • Your physical Rocket Card will still function for door access, dining or the REC Center once your Rocket Mobile ID has been created.
  • If you request a new physical Rocket card, your current Rocket Mobile ID will be retired once the new physical card is printed. To re-add your Rocket Mobile ID, log in to the Transact eAccounts app and add it to your digital wallet again.
  • Remember, the Rocket Mobile ID is a privilege and benefit of being part of the UToledo community. Anyone found to be misusing their physical card or Rocket Mobile ID will be subject to the applicable Code of Conduct and/or HR policies regarding fraud and/or misconduct.

  • You want to make sure you are using the same wallet for both, i.e. if you are an Android user you cannot add your campus card to your Google Wallet and your Samsung watch to the Samsung wallet; they have to both be on in the same ecosystem.

I already have the Transact eAccounts mobile app installed. Do I need to update? 

  • Yes, you will need to install the updated version of the Transact eAccounts mobile app. 

How do I update the Transact eAccounts mobile app? 

  • On your device, visit the Google Play Store or App Store and search Transact eAccounts. The store will prompt you to install any required updates.

My balance is different on my device than in Transact eAccounts?

  • Confirm your device is not in Airplane Mode or experiencing any other service interruption (confirm WiFi connection is working).  Updates cannot be made when there is no connecting service to sync data between Transact eAccounts and your device.  The Transact eAccounts app will display the most current information.
