MyKing’s 1Card site - Laundry Account When you move in $42 in laundry money is automatically added to your laundry account. Use your student card (1Card) to pay for the use of the laundry facilities. You can add additional money by using your Western University username and password. Note: a balance of $0 means you have not used any money on your card for the laundry facilities. As the balance goes up, it means you have less money to use for laundry. Once the balance has reached $42, you have exceeded the limit on your card, and will need to add more funds to your 1Card. Everything you will need is in one place! To access your account, simply visit www.kings.uwo.ca/1card and follow the directions for adding funds and checking your account. Adding Funds to your Account Online: Residents use the student login at www.kings.uwo.ca/1card to add funds from a credit card. In person: Visit Central Services (mailroom) at King’s during their hours of operation to add funds using cash. Parents can deposit funds into your account using Mastercard or Visa. You will need your student number and birth date.
