The Stanford University ID Card Transaction system, which manages student and staff card purchases, will migrate from CS Gold to the Atrium Cards System between Dec. 13 and Dec. 16. This transition is necessary to meet the needs of Stanford’s card transaction system. During the transition, some payment options will not be available.

What changes can I expect?
The Atrium Card System implementation will replace the R&DE MyMealPlan portal with the Atrium Connect portal. Your login to the Atrium Connect portal will remain the same as it was with the MyMealPlan portal, and can be reached from the same link on the R&DE Meal Plans webpage.
The new portal provides an enhanced look and feel and offers the same excellent services. The new portal will also have some new features:
- Automatic deposits: when your account balances reach a minimum balance (set by you), it will automatically replenish with automatic deposits
- Grant guest access: this allows you to grant parents and guests access to deposit funds to your account
- Refund request form: there will now be a refund request form in your portal if needed
These new features can be found under the Personalize section of the Atrium Connect Portal.
Additionally, after the migration, you will have the option to present your physical Stanford ID card or Stanford Mobile ID when making purchases with meal plan dollars or Cardinal Dollars at R&DE cafés/markets and third-party restaurants.
