New Members

Hello, KAMK student! Become a member and receive an official student ID card as proof of your membership!

You can purchase a membership for a single semester, an academic year, or for the entire duration of your studies. The longer your membership, the more you save, as each purchase includes a service fee, so fewer purchases mean more savings.

The price includes a digital student ID card and the membership fee for the period you select. You can also order a physical student ID card, which will be equipped with a sticker indicating the academic year or semester of validity. Just remember to pick up a new sticker when your membership continues into the next academic year! If you opt for a digital student ID card only, your membership will be automatically renewed once you pay the membership fee for multiple academic years at once.

Becoming a member

To become a member, you must be a currently enrolled student at Kajaani University of Applied Sciences. Please review the eligibility requirements before joining.

If you have just started your studies, you can order a student ID card only after you have received your KAMK login credentials. We use these credentials to verify your student status at Kajaani University of Applied Sciences.

Instructions

Joining is simple and will take only 10 minutes of your time. Please follow the instructions below:

1. Make sure you have a clear digital photo of yourself in JPG format where you are easily recognizable. The photo must be a headshot (passport-style) taken against a light background, showing your face clearly from the front. You may wear glasses in the student ID photo, but sunglasses are not allowed. More information of the photo here.

2. To sign up, you’ll need your personal student ID number. You can find your student ID number via Student’s Desktop Pakki. Bring your mouse on top of your name on the front page, which will pop out a menu and you will see your student number below ENTITLEMENTS. Tip! You can find the number from Tuudo, below the QR code.

3. Create an account in Kide.app webshop. You can either create a separate account or log in using your Facebook account. We recommend you to download the Kide.app application on your phone, as we use it for other services as well.

4. Search KAMO’s membership in Kide.app either typing KAMO membership in the search field or using this link.

5. Select the membership period that suits you and add the product to your cart using the shopping cart icon.  The membership fee you select includes only the digital student ID. If you also want a physical student ID, be sure to add it separately to your cart. Fill in the requested information and pay for your purchase.

6. After you have paid for your purchase, your active membership will appear in the “Your Membership Card” section of the Wallet page. The digital card can be activated a few hours after purchase at slice.fi/upload.

Detailed instructions for activating your digital student or membership card.

If you order a physical student ID card, you will receive a pickup notification at your school email address when the card is ready for pickup. You can pick up your student ID card at Kaffé Tauko or have it mailed to you when placing your order. Delivery of the student ID card takes 2 – 3 weeks.

Membership periods

If you plan to graduate earlier than the target date, it’s best to pay for membership only for the period you are certain to be studying at KAMK.

You can join at any point during the current semester, but the price for that semester is always the same regardless of when you join.

A multi-year membership is more affordable than purchasing a membership one semester at a time. The savings have been calculated by comparing the total price to what you would pay if you purchased a membership one semester at a time.

Physical UAS Student ID Card

Starting in the fall semester of 2026, the physical card will no longer be automatically included with your membership. You can purchase a physical card for the low price of €10. The physical student ID card is valid for the duration of your studies (provided your information does not change); just remember to pick up a new sticker when your membership renews for the following academic year!

Why do we recommend a physical student card?

A physical student card doesn’t require a battery or an internet connection, so it works even in a pinch and is valid even abroad! Just remember to pick up a new sticker when your membership renews for the next academic year!

Did you lose your card?

In case you have lost your Student Card, you have changed your name or you just want to replace your previous card, please visit Kaffé Tauko. See detailed instructions here.
