Do my bank accounts automatically connect to my PennCash or Dining Dollars or SFS line of Credit if I have a linked PennCard?
No. You have lots of options on how to use your PennCard to pay for things, but they all work independently and funds don’t automatically transfer from one account to another. Usually, if you’re using your PennCard to buy something on campus, it will be PennCash, Dining Dollars, or your SFS account – make sure you tell the cashier which account you’d like to use. Typically, you’d use your linked PennCard as a pin-based, bank debit card off-campus, if the business accepts pin-based bank debit cards for payment.
