How and where you can use the SU Card
Your SU Card may only be used at Sult, Smokey’s Cafe, The SU Shop. You acknowledge that the SU Card may not be used to purchase alcohol or goods and services that a retailer is not permitted to supply to you (for example, a retailer cannot by law sell cigarettes to you if you are under 18 years of age).
Purchases with your Gift Card
When paying with your SU Card, staff members will carry out random ID checks to ensure that they are carrying out the transaction on behalf of the account holder. The transaction will be completed when the balance has reduced on your SU Card. No change will be given: any remaining balance on the card can only be used in whole or part against future purchases.
No cash advances
You cannot obtain any cash advance with your SU Card or redeem your SU Card Balance for cash.
Purchases exceeding the SU Card value
Your SU Card may only be used to make purchases up to the remaining SU Card cash balance. If you wish to make a purchase for an amount that exceeds the SU Card balance, you must pay the excess using another payment method.
