This section should answer some of the questions you may have about LINK Loot. The concept is pretty simple, but if you have any questions, check out the LINK FAQ section below and see if that answers the questions you may have. If not, visit our contact page and let us know how we can help.

 

What is it?

  
Attending LINK events and LINK connected events isn't just fun, it's PROFITABLE! For every program you go to listed on the LINK website and sign in or have your UCF ID card swiped, you will receive LINK Loot. If you sign in at a program, the program presenter will forward the attendance sheet to the LINK office. If you swipe your UCF ID card, you will receive electronic LINK Loot. LINK Loot is fake cash (you know we can't give you the real stuff) that you load up on for tons of stuff that you can bid on at the auction. LINK
How can you get it?
You have to head out to the programs listed on this site and sign in or have your UCF ID card swiped at each program. You don't have to search very hard to find a LINK program. There's practically one occurring every day. Just check out the list of programs.
Where can you use it?
You can use your LINK Loot to bid on items at the LINK Loot auction every fall and spring semester.
This is the event you've been waiting for all semester long. The LINK Loot Auction is held at the end of the Fall and Spring semesters in the Student Union's Pegasus Ballroom. Here's your chance to use the LINK Loot that you've been collecting all semester and bid on prizes like FREE TUITION and much more. Prizes are usually posted a week or two before the auction on the LINK main page. Some sample prizes are listed below.
