I spent a few years with a Mondex card[1] (I assume Exeter university was one of the test locations?) and it was vaguely useful: most places on campus accepted it so you could use it to pay for a pint, print or photocopy, or buy course books. Looking through the list of what it could do though it seems it was pretty underutilized. In the test location I was in you couldn’t transfer funds to another person or use multiple currencies, and I don’t remember any personal readers.
