Deciding who's responsible for paying the corporate card issuer is an important decision. You can choose from the following options:

• Individual Pay: The employee pays the corporate card issuer for all corporate card transactions.

• Company Pay: Your company pays the corporate card issuer for all transactions.

• Both Pay: The employee pays the corporate card issuer for personal expenses and your company pays the corporate card issuer for business expenses.

Individual Pay

For the Individual Pay option, the employee pays the corporate card issuer for both business and personal transactions. The employee reports both expenses in expense reports. To ensure that required receipts are attached and that the report is in compliance with your company's business policies, the employee's expense report is verified. When the report is approved by the employee's manager, the employee is reimbursed for corporate card business expenses and cash business expenses.

Note: Cash business expenses are paid by cash or check instead of a corporate card.

The following table describes the Individual Pay option where employees pay the corporate card issuer for corporate card business and personal expenses. Your company reimburses employees for corporate card business and cash business expenses.

Any personal expenses are deducted from the cash business expenses and recovered by your company.

Note: Your company can pay the corporate card issuer at any time, depending on the payment terms. Submission or approval of expense reports isn't required for payment to the card issuer.
