1. Authenticate your Ranger Card

First, ou will enter in the card number you received and press "Submit". This will prompt you to a new screen where you will add in the remaining information of the cardholder including your email address where you will use this as your login for the remainder of your use with the Higher One Checking Account.

This is done for security purposes to verify that the correct person has possession of the card. Enter the requested information and press "Next" to continue.

2. Creating Your Profile

The information entered during this step should be written down or memorized for easier access to this website in the future. To make it easier to remember, we suggest using the UW-Parkside email address and the same password. You will need this website in the future to:

View your refund history
Report a lost card.

3. Choose Your Refund Preference Choice

This step determines how refunds will be received from the University. University refunds include Financial Aid, Scholarships, Grants, tuition credit if classes are dropped, along with other department refunds including parking and on-campus debit account closures.

BEST CHOICE: Easy Refund to a Higher One Checking Account. You will get your refunds instantly and be able to use them by retrieving them from your Higher One Account or using your card at an ATM.

4. OneAccount Setup

The OneAccount setup involves confirming personal information, selecting a PIN (Personal Identification Number) for use at ATM machines and setting up features to be used with the One Account.

The One Account can be funded using an existing bank account by entering the account as a Funding Bank. This option can be setup during activation or at a later date by selecting the "Add Money Later" option.

Other OneAccount features are Checks/Online Bill pay, Campus Autoload to fund your on-campus accounts, Direct Deposit of Payroll and requesting money from family and friends. All of these features can be setup during activation or at a later date.

5. Notification Setup

This step allows the cardholder to choose which email notifications they wish to receive.

6. Confirming Email Address

The Ranger OneCard activation is not complete until the email confirmation is done. This is required to verify the email address is valid and entered correctly. A confirmation code is emailed to the cardholder along with instructions on how to complete the confirmation.
