Bulldog Bucks
Placing funds on your ZAGCARD account creates a declining balance account. There is no earned interest associated with your account. Funds deposited in your account are non-transferable. Deposits will be posted to the cardholder’s account for immediate use. The cardholder is responsible for all attempted deposits that do not clear as well as purchases made against any such attempted deposit. Rejected deposits will be immediately removed from your account, and your account will be charged a returned transaction fee. The University reserves the right to place accounts on hold in the event a deposit is returned or rejected.
If you attempt to use your card when there are insufficient funds available, the transaction will be denied. If a transaction is approved despite the lack of sufficient funds, causing a negative balance, you agree to pay the negative balance to the University within 10 days of the transaction. In the event you do not bring your account current within 10 days, you agree to pay any and all expenses incurred in the collection of the negative balance, including reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other sums due and payable.
The University will not deduct funds from your account other than in accordance with transactions authorized through the use of your card or as permitted under these Terms and Conditions. No statements are periodically issued for the account. To view your account history, login to Zagweb select the ZAGCARD tab.

The ZAGCARD is not branded by any major credit card issuer and does not offer the same consumer protection if your card is lost or stolen.
