Replace Your Card
Important notice: For the Fall 2022/Winter 2023 semesters, all exterior campus building doors are locked and require a OneCard to gain access to the interior of campus buildings. This means that all employees must apply for their OneCard as soon as possible. Instructions for employees applying for and picking up their OneCard are available on the Get Your Card (Faculty & Staff) pages on our website. If you have any questions about applying for a OneCard, please contact that OneCard Office at onecard@torontomu.ca.
Your TMU OneCard is your single most important piece of identification while at the university. If your card is lost, stolen or damaged, you will be responsible for the cost to replace the card. This includes if you damage the card by punching a hole in it, wash it or knowingly scratch it.
Eligibility
In order to be eligible for a replacement OneCard, faculty and staff must have an active contract.
How to replace your card
If you lose your OneCard, it is critical that you report it lost or stolen as soon as possible. You are responsible for any unauthorized transactions resulting from the theft or loss of your card.
Act fast to protect the funds on your card
You are responsible for any unauthorized transactions resulting from the theft or loss of your card. If you are able to deactivate your card quickly enough before someone else uses it, you won’t lose the money on it.
As such, it’s important for you to report your OneCard missing as soon as you notice it is gone. Once it's deactivated, the funds on your card are protected and can be transferred to a new card.
Notification occurs once you have reported your lost/stolen card to the OneCard office, at which point it will be deactivated.
