The University Purchasing Card (P-card) program is intended to provide departments with real time access and convenience to conduct small dollar purchases.  The P-card is delegated to the departmental user as a corporate account for official university purchases.  Individuals are named on the card according to the credit lender policy standards; however the University‘s credit and authority is represented as the legal entity. 

The purchasing card is the preferred method for pre-payment transactions (subscriptions, books, and professional dues), conference registration, airline ticket purchases and business use hotel room charges.  The card may be also used for on-line purchases up to pre-determined card transaction limits and to replace LPO’s when convenient.
