Off-Campus Merchants

Off-Campus Merchants are vendors who will accept the Retriever Card as a method of payment. These merchants can only accept Retriever Dollars and Food Fund for payment – meal plans and Flex cannot be used at these locations.

The DCARD can be used to make purchases from the following off-campus locations, to include delivery to campus.  Tipping is allowed up to 20% of the food sale (not tax).
