What is UB Marketplace?
UB Marketplace is a third-party e-commerce solution allowing departments to accept credit and debit card payments and electronic checks (e-checks) for products and services other than academic fees and tuition.
Why Use UB Marketplace?
- Easily list products or services such as event tickets, conference registration, etc.
- Minimize the risk associated with cash receipt collections.
- Utilize SIRI and UB Marketplace reports to review the revenue from transactions.
UB Marketplace cannot be used to collect any Category-1 data except for credit card info.
- A file is transmitted from UB Marketplace to the university’s general ledger daily for bank reconciliation purposes. It is also posted to departmental accounts every 15 days.
- Departments are not required to complete cash receipt transmittals for UB Marketplace transactions.
- The UB Marketplace Orders page provides real-time information regarding payments made via UB Marketplace. You can review individual payments comprising daily or summarized fee deposits for a day or a range of dates.
If your department decides to receive the data electronically, then it is responsible for providing the additional programming required, including any integrations needed for the application.
Creating New or Maintaining Existing Products in UB Marketplace
- For units that do not have a store, complete the UB Marketplace Setup form to set up a new product in the General Store.
- Request GL codes, grant user access, process refunds or generate discount codes by completing the UB Marketplace Requests form. A separate request is required for each action.
- Financial Management will notify you when your request is approved.
You must have an approved rate on file before submitting a request for a new product, GL code or discount code.
