Q & A
When I can pick up my Tamko student card?
You can pick up your student card from Tamko’s office when your studies have started. You’ll get email to your TUNI-email when the card is ready to be picked up.
When Tamko’s mobile student cards start to work?
Tamko’s mobile student cards in Tuudo and in Slice starts to work when you have bought our membership and your study right period begins.
Where I can check when my study right period begins?
You can check your study right period information from Tuudo app by clicking mobile card’s QR-code or from students’ desktop Pakki’s front page’s blue box.
I applied for Tamko membership but I can’t use my mobile student cards.
Few possible answers for the situation:
1. We need to accept your membership. We accept memberships during our office opening hours, meaning that membership forms submitted during the weekend will be accepted on Monday. You will receive an automatic email confirming your acceptance.
2. Did you pay the membership fee when you filled out the membership form? Tamko membership fee must be paid for mobile student cards to be activated.
3. You must be a present student and your study right period have to be started.
4. Did you fill out every section of our membership application? The problem could be, for example, that your student number is missing. This will help us get the necessary information from TAMK.
5. It may take up to 24 hours for the information to update between systems, so please wait at least that amount of time after you join.
Can I pick up a sticker for someone else? What about a card?
Yes you can! When changing a sticker, it’s enough to have your friend’s card with you, as the sticker is only glued directly to the card. When picking up the card, the friend must send us a message in advance about who is coming to pick up the card so that we can hand it over.
I would like to get student discounts, but my card has not arrived yet. What do I do?
If the academic year is already ongoing, you are present student and your study right period has begun, you can use Tamko’s mobile student cards in Tuudo and Slice. With mobile student cards, you get all the same benefits as with a plastic student card.
I have paid for my membership for a longer period, why is the student card’s academic year sticker not valid for the same period?
There are two types of validity stickers on the student card at a time. One indicates validity for the entire academic year and the other for the fall semester. The stickers change annually and we can start distributing new stickers annually from 1.8.
I am not sure if I still have Tamko membership left, where can I check it?
You can check is your membership is valid in Tamko’s online service at www.asiointi.tamko.fi. You can buy more memberships from the same place!
Do I need to get the new sticker right away?
Current academic year sticker 9/2026 expires by the end of September, so no need to rush yet! Mobile student cards work after the sticker expires if your membership is valid.
My student card has been lost or broken. How do I get a new one?
If your student card is lost, report it as soon as possible to information point of your own study campus and to the library, so the use of the lost card can be prevented and access rights removed from the card. If you want, you can order a new student card from Tamko’s online service at www.asiointi.tamko.fi or by visiting the office. A new card costs 5 €.
