    Happy Friday!
    I wanted to reach out and request feedback from this group to see how you distribute per diem to your student-athletes. We are currently exploring cashless options and are curious what experiences other institutions have had, whether with prepaid cards or zelle/venmo, etc. Please comment below or reach out to me directly!

    Thanks and have a great weekend!

    Hi Dominique
    We are still reviewing it. There are some challenges to work through with a prepaid debit card that we woiuld give to student athletes and I am not sure we have the staff to do it all. We will keep exploring, but would appreciate an update on any feedback you receive.  

    thanks!

    We currently are still doing it the old school way and giving them cash. However, I am very curious what other schools are doing and would love to bring some of these ideas back to our institution as well. GREAT Topic for discussion!!

    Do you mind sharing what bank you all use? Also, is it the same bank that your university purchasing cards are through?

    We are using US Bank. I'll have to get more information to fully answering your question as I don't possess a university P-card.
