The chip card is available to all THM students.
After receiving the chip card and at the beginning of each new semester, the card must be printed at an update terminal. To do this, the chip card is simply inserted into the terminal and the card is reprinted with the corresponding expiry date. Please note that the card can only be printed once the current semester fee for the coming semester has been paid. A 14-day processing time after the receipt of the money until it is printed on the chip card is to be expected.
For our visually impaired students, the terminals in Gießen are equipped with voice output (BLiZ).

Information about the university library
Electronic wallet for all ATMs and Student Union facilities
After the required one-time initialization at the initialization terminal, the chip card can be loaded with banknotes at the student union's top-up terminals. The chip card is then suitable as a means of payment for the following areas:
- canteen
- Pastaria
- cafeteria
- biblounge
- coffee machines
- Washing machines in the halls of residence
Electronic key for doors and barriers at the THM
The chip card can be provided with appropriate access authorizations so that certain barriers or rooms can be opened with the card.
technology and maintenance
The chip card contains a microchip and an antenna running along the edge of the card to enable data exchange via appropriate terminals. Both are very sensitive, ie the card should not be bent or pasted.
The semester ticket is printed by a TRW printer in the update terminals. Dirt can severely affect the printed image of the imprint. The TRW imprint can also fade due to exposure to excessive heat, so please protect your card from dirt and heat.
Please use the protective cover issued with the card.
The imprint on the update terminals can be renewed at any time.
Defect / Loss / Theft
If your chip card is defective, has been stolen or you have lost it, please apply for your new chip card via the THM E-Campus.
It is necessary for you to appear in person with your identity card or passport to pick up the new chip card.
A fee of 15 euros is usually charged for each additional student ID card.
If your chip card is defective, you can receive a “routing slip for paying out the remaining balance” on your electronic wallet from the chip card service. By presenting this routing slip and the defective chip card to the Gießen Student Union (cashier staff), you will receive the remaining balance paid out. Unfortunately, if the cafeteria money is lost or stolen, it cannot be refunded. You can obtain further information from the team at the GießenStudent Union.
