Yes, it can still be used.
However, recharging the card might become more difficult in the future, since we want to phase out cash completely in the long term. But there is also the autoload option for the card as a cashless top-up method.

StudiwerkMainz app – pay & more: 

You can also use the app as a guest (non-students, conference participants, visitors). It only takes a few minutes to set up. You enter a payment method and specify the top-up amount. You can have the remaining amount paid out to you.

Advantage: You can install the app wherever you want to use it, regardless of your location.

Guest card:

You can purchase the guest card for a fee of 5 € from the guest card vending machine. To do this, you need a 5 € note and must go to a location where one of these machines is located. You can then top up the card with cash (5, 10 or 20 euro notes). To have the remaining balance paid out, you must send an email and have the remaining balance transferred to you.

Advantage: Cash 

Please be aware that recharging the card might become more difficult in the future, since we want to phase out cash completely in the long term. But there is also the autoload option for the card as a cashless top-up method.

That's your mistake. You are responsible for confirming your student status in the app. You have to do this every semester. Remember to do this at the start of each semester. You can find out how to do this under Student status validation | Pay student prices under I Am a New User - Setting Up Studiwerk Mainz App or I Used the Old App - Setting Up Studiwerk Mainz App.

When a new QR code is scanned with the old app, the error message “The code is invalid” appears in a red box at the bottom of the screen.
