HOW DO THE CARDS WORK?
If festival goers only have cash, they can covert that cash to a CashCard. As you make purchases with vendors the cash is deducted from the balance on the card. At every location you can see the amount deducted and the amount left on your card on your receipt. You can check the balance left on your card by looking at your receipt after every purchase, by scanning the QR code on the back of your card, by visiting musikfest.org/festcashcards or asking anyone at any CashCard Reload Booth. If you deplete the balance on your CashCard you can always add more cash to your card balance at the ArtsQuest CashCard Reload Booths.
DO I NEED TO GET AN ARTSQUEST CASHCARD?
NO! You do NOT need to get an ArtsQuest CashCard if you already have a credit or debit card. If you have a debit or credit card you can go directly to your favorite Official Musikfest food vendor or beverage stand and official Musikfest merchandise location to make your purchase.
DO I STILL NEED TO BRING CASH WITH ME TO THE FESTIVAL?
NO! Since credit and debit cards are accepted everywhere on the festival grounds, you do not need to bring cash with you.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I LOSE MY CARD?
Unfortunately, if you lose your card, you will also lose all the money that has been loaded on the card.
CAN I GET A REFUND ON THE CASH LOADED TO MY CASHCARD THAT I DON’T USE?
All CashCard loads are final and there are no refunds.
ARE THERE ANY FEES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ARTSQUEST CASHCARD?

WHERE CAN I RECYCLE MY ARTSQUEST CASHCARD?
Recycle bins will be located throughout the festival at all CashCard booth locations on the northside. We encourage everyone to recycle their CashCards when they have finished using them.
