The University Procurement Card is a Visa credit card tied directly to a University index number, to be used for business purposes only. It is targeted at low dollar purchases, as an alternative to the normal requisitioning process. The card can be used for business purchases of goods and services, excluding travel & entertainment, and any commodity requiring special approval or contract documents. The University limits are $2,000 / transaction, with a $20,000 / month spending limit.

Use of the Procurement Card may simplify the purchase of many low dollar transactions. Procurement Cards may be issued to any full time employee who resides in the United States or Canada, and who obtains appropriate approval from a Provost or Dean for academic units, or Vice President or Assistant Vice President for non-academic units. Cards cannot be issued to guests, students, or independent contractors, nor other non-university employees.
