Departmental Buzz Card

An on-line card office is now available at https://community.bhsu.edu . You will need to activate each Departmental Buzz Card separately. Here are a few simple steps to activating your account.

1. At the first screen of the Blackboard Community System select BHSU Departments in the drop down menu.
2. Your logon user name is:
   The number printed on your departmental card excluding any zeros before the number.
   EXAMPLE: if your departmental Buzz card number is 000001234 the user name would be 1234.

3. The "first time" password is:  bhsu1234

4. Select the login button

5. The next screen is the accounts summary page

6. In the boxes on the left are the account balances. To view transaction history just click on the box.

7. This tab shows your account balances. The only balance that will be shown will be the Department account and this will be a negative amount. Your departmental Buzz card is a credit card and the balances increment down to your predefined credit limit which varies by each card.
   
   You can view up to 12 months of printable statements of your account.
   
   Statement dates are as of the 1st day of each month. The Buzz card system forwards data to Banner Accounting System from 1st of the month through the end month.
   
   You can view transaction history of your accounts.
   
   You can set up an email reminder when your account drops below an amount that you define and you can request an email reminder when a new statement is available.
   
   You can report a lost or stolen card which will prevent your card from being used.
