• What happened to Pivo?

  Pivo is no longer in use – it has been replaced by the Slice mobile student card.

  How do I start using Slice?

  1. Check your membership
     Log in to the student union’s online shop or visit a campus service points to see your membership fee status, membership validity, and whether we already have your photo.

  2. Make sure we have your photo
     Slice requires a photo in the student union register.

     • If you don’t yet have a plastic student card and your photo is not in the system, you can upload one here.

     • Or simply stop by the student union office and we’ll take a photo of you.

  3. Pay your membership fee
     You can do this at the online shop or at campus service points.

  4. Activate your Slice card
     Once your fee has been paid and your photo is in the system, submit an activation request for the new academic year. You’ll then receive your username and installation instructions from Slice directly to your school email (usually within one day).

  Why should I use Slice?
