UB Snackin'

Welcome to UB Snackin'! Vending machines provide an alternative food and snack service 24-hours a day in a variety of locations around both campuses.

Convenience

Our vending machines will accept either cash or your UB Card for purchases. Card readers have been installed on every machine on campus. The card readers are programmed to use Dining Points first and then roll over to Campus Cash after Dining Points are exhausted. Your UB Card works just like a debit card—the amount of your purchase is deducted from your account each time you make a purchase, and the card reader displays your remaining balance. No more scrambling for quarters when you want a snack; just swipe your card through the reader and make your selection. Paying with your UB Card makes using the vending services convenient and secure!

Most UB Snackin' vending machines are GET ready. To confirm that the machine at your location is compatible with GET, look for the Location Number on its sticker. Find out more about GET Mobile Access at the MyUBCard Manage GET Account page.

Variety

Expect an extensive assortment of your favorite national brands in the snack and beverage machines, with numerous selections stocked for those seeking healthier items. To round out the menu, subs, sandwiches and entrees will be stocked daily in our food machines. With machines prominently placed throughout campus, you're certain to find plenty to satisfy your cravings at any time of the day!
