Using your Eat and Drink credit
Download the Bath Go app from your app store. The first time you use the app, you will need to tap 'forgot password'. This will send a password to your University email address, which you can then use to log in.
Once you are signed in, place the QR code in the Loyalty section on the card reader by the till. The till operator will ask which payment method you鈥檇 like to use. If you choose Eat and Drink credit, the cost then comes off your account balance.
If you don't have enough credit on your card you have to pay for any outstanding amounts.
Eat and Drink discount
If you are an undergraduate living in Eat and Drink accommodation, you receive a 10% discount on food and drink when paying at the till. This is available in all outlets except Fresh and The Market and excludes promotions.

You can check your balance at any time on the Bath Go app by going into Loyalty, then tapping the wallet icon at the bottom of the screen.

If you lose your library card you should:
Report it by emailing the ResLife team reslife@bath.ac.uk They will freeze your credit to stop anyone from using your balance.
Visit the Reader Services Desk on Level 2 of the Library to get a replacement card.
Visit the West Accommodation Centre for a replacement card if you are part of the Open University.
- Your credit will automatically load onto your new library card within an hour of it being printed.
You can then continue using your library card to pay for food using your Eat and Drink credit.
