UW – Parkside Travel

 If you intend to only be purchasing travel related expenses, you should obtain a Corporate Travel card.  If you do purchasing for your department, you should obtain a Purchasing Card (Pcard)

 If it’s mixed,  and you do travel arrangements for others, you can use a Pcard. The Pcard limitations for travel are as follows:

• Cannot be used for day trip parking
• Cannot be used for any alcohol or individual meals
• Cannot be used for insurance (i.e. CISI)

Travel Card transactions payments must be paid by the employee through an e-reimbursement or by setting up an account with access online.
