GET Mobile: ID Card Management

The CBORD Group, Inc.

About this app

Ditch your plastic card for an all-in-one mobile ID. GET is an online and mobile platform that brings convenience and value to university and hospital campuses.

For colleges and universities: One app does it all! GET allows you to manage funds, make purchases, order food, make dining reservations, and earn rewards. You can also use NFC access to open doors, purchase from vending machines, or pay for your laundry. You can use GET just like you use a plastic ID card.

For healthcare: Add your badge to your mobile phone. Download GET to opt into payroll deduction, manage funds, view and make purchases, report a lost or stolen ID card, and place online food orders.

The GET mobile app only works if your university or hospital offers the GET platform from CBORD. To activate: download the app; select your campus or organization; create an account; and manage your campus ID on your phone. If your campus isn’t listed, contact your local ID card services office.

Questions or comments about GET can be directed to [e-mail].

Ratings and reviews

The app used to work fine and well but now it is extremely slow. Clicking on the services in the app does nothing. something needs to change here, students are having a very difficult time using this and it is a huge inconvenience for a student's university to push this app to their students to use but it is incredibly slow and inefficient.

I have to use this to order food at my college, it takes multiple attempts to order food frequently, orders will be randomly kept in cart after I order, and notifications don't seem related to how far along my order is. The app works, basically, but it's often annoying to use and I wouldn't recommend it to any institutions organizing cafeterias.

First - the app is a terrible name and hard to find. It needs to be more unique to be easy to locate. Second, while the app itself worked fine for me, it wasn't until later I noticed that the prices were slightly higher through GET Mobile than when I order direct. I spoke with another patron who told me that there is a $0.50 surcharge. I was never made aware of any surcharges, but it turns out it was precisely about $0.50 more expensive than ordering direct, making me believe that he was correct in stating the surcharge. Finally, I used this only for Starbucks at Stony Brook Hospital, and it turns out Starbucks has their own app (much easier to find) and doesn't charge any surcharges. Guess what app I'm going to be using, if any, for mobile orders? Honestly, if there is a surcharge, it MUST be made clear up-front. I recommend all users to closely check the charges/prices against direct prices.
