BUSINESS PURCHASING CARDS

For business, non-profit, and public sector clients who want a solution that is more robust than a traditional business card, the Purchasing Card is the answer.

Many organizations use the Purchasing Card to streamline their purchasing and expense management processes by increasing spending controls, decreasing the amount of time spent on purchasing activities, and providing robust reporting and workflow tools.

The Purchasing Card, offered through Elan, is a credit card that helps companies enjoy more accurate cash forecasting, greater insight into spend and cash flows, and increased float to better leverage their cash position.

The Vendor Matching Service utilizes a client’s Excel file of vendor information and matches it to the Visa database to show which vendors accept credit cards. This convenient tool provides a way to estimate potential spend and economic benefits that can be optimized with our Purchasing Card.
