Faculty and Staff

Faculty and Staff Flex+ Dollars

All current University of California, Berkeley faculty and staff with a valid Cal 1 Card are eligible to purchase Faculty and Staff Flex+ Dollars. An employee who is also a registered student of the University may only purchase an off-campus meal plan.

Flex+ dollars

Flex+ dollars work on a declining balance basis. Flex+ dollars may be used in the dining commons, campus restaurants, convenience stores, and to pay for guest meals at a discount from the cash price in the dining commons.

Flex+ dollars function like cash dollars—1 flex+ dollar has the purchasing power of $1. For example, a purchase of $2.01 would cost 2.01 flex+ dollars. Flex+ dollars cannot be refunded, transferred to another meal plan holder, or canceled.

Purchase add-on flex+ dollars anytime you need:

100 flex+ dollars for $100

Faculty and Staff flex+ dollars and add-on flex+ dollars remain active as long as the participant is employed by the University of California, Berkeley. All balances must be used by the last day of employment, or funds will be forfeited.
