£100 cost of living boost

If you’re a UK home-fee paying student and accept a place with Coventry University Group, via UCAS by making us your Firm or Insurance choice, you’ll receive a £100 pre-paid digital card when you successfully enrol with us this September 2025.

Starting university is a big step, we’re here to give you a little boost. It’s our way of saying “welcome” and helping you to get off to a great start. Whether you put it towards your first food shop, some uni essentials, or a coffee catch-up with your new flatmates, it’s yours to spend how you like.

Here’s how it works:

  • Select us as your Firm or Insurance choice at UCAS by the deadline stated on your UCAS Hub or, for non-UCAS applicants, accept your offer with us
  • From July 2025 onwards, once you meet the conditions of your offer, we’ll send you an email with a form to complete to register details for your digital card. This must be completed before teaching starts on 8 September 2025
  • Once you’ve completed the form, you’ll receive an email from our trusted third-party partner
  • Follow the steps in the email to gain access to your digital card via an app. The digital card can be added to Apple Pay or Google Wallet
  • The £100 balance will be loaded after you have successfully enrolled for our September 2025 intake

 

Spend it online or in-store, anywhere that accepts Visa, both on and off campus. We hope it also makes settling in a little bit easier. Just one more reason to make us your choice for this September.
