Travel Card Resources

A Travel Card, also called Corporate Card or Travel & Expense (T&E) Card, is a type of Commercial Card that allows organizations to manage travel spend more effectively. Travel Cards are issued to employees for the purchase of approved, business-related travel expenses. In the simplest terms, a Travel Card is a charge card, similar to a consumer credit card. However, unlike P-Card reconciliation and payment, Travel Cards can take a variety of forms in the way settlement occurs.
