(KNOX) – Starting with the University of North Dakota Football home opener on Saturday, September 6, most purchases made inside the Alerus Center will be cash-free.

Parking, along with a majority of concession stands, will now only accept debit, credit, pre-paid cards, and gift cards. The shift is designed to streamline transactions at concession stands and other point-of-sale locations in the arena and conference center, reducing wait times and improving operational efficiency. Limited cash options may be available for private events such as weddings, banquets, trade shows, and more.

To ensure accessibility for all guests, cash exchange locations will be available at both the Transystems Box Office and Guest Services, where patrons can convert cash into pre-paid cards. Cash will still be accepted when purchasing tickets directly at the box office.

During the transition period, select concession lines and arena floor vendors will continue to accept cash. These locations will be clearly marked with signage, and Alerus Center staff will be on hand to assist with any questions.
