Add Funds to Your SBA Red Card!

You'll get your new SBA Red Card when you move in to your Steve Brown Apartment. At that point, you'll be ready at funds to your account. Before you start, here are a couple items you need to know:

Your SBA Red Card Includes Two Accounts

SBA partners with a company which provides discounts to local restaurants, called Red Card. Because of this partnership, you need to load funds onto two separate accounts – your SBA Account and your Red Card Account – even though the SBA Red Card can be used to pay for services covered by both:

Each account covers different items. You'll need to budget your money accordingly.

Red Card Account Includes:

Restaurants
Taxis
Groceries
Laundry Service from Lazybones

SBA Account Includes:

Laundry at your building
Copies, postage and faxes (only for residents of Lucky and The Regent)

To Add Funds to Your Two Accounts:

An ideal time to add funds is when you move into your new apartment and receive your new SBA Red Card. Bring a check made payable to SBA Management Services. If you want funds in each account, you'll need to write two checks, indicating on the memo line which account the check is for.

On an ongoing basis, you can add funds in the following ways:

Red Card Account

In Person or by Mail: Add any amount at our service desks or by mail using a check made payable to SBA Management Services. If you are mailing your check, please indicate in the memo line that the payment is for your SBA Red Card.

Online: To add funds to your account, visit www.redcardmealplan.com. DO NOT CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT. As a Steve Brown Apartments resident, an account has already been created for you. Simply select "My Account" at the top. You will then be able to gain web access and add funds using a credit or debit card. Here's a step-by-step:

Select "Register Now" under “Register for Web Account Access”
Fill out all the required fields. The information you need is printed on the front of your card.
Once you have registered for online account access and created a username and password, you can log in anytime to add funds to your Red Card Meal Plan account, check your balance or suspend a lost card.
