Georgia Perimeter College Business Procedures Manual

American Express -- Corporate Card, 
Section 7.4

The State of Georgia Department of Administrative Services has entered into an agreement with American Express to provide selected employees with a Corporate Card for business related travel expenses. Full-time faculty and professional and administrative employees on travel status, with a salary level of $24,000, are eligible to participate in the Corporate Card program. 

The card is provided to the employee at no cost. All travel expense reporting and reimbursement procedures will remain the same under the Corporate Card system. 

All charges made on the corporate card are the responsibility of the employee. Corporate Card billings must be paid in a timely manner by the employee. 

Card membership is an excellent benefit for traveling employees, as well as a valuable travel management aid to the State of Georgia. To apply for the Corporate Card, please contact J. Anitra Smith-Williams, Budget Analyst, 678-891-2376 for an access key to the online application. After receiving an access key, visit the web site https://www.americanexpress.com/applyforcard. You may also obtain an application form from the Budget Office located on the Decatur Campus. The completed paper application should be returned to the Budget Office. Approval by American Express is not automatic and will take two to three weeks for processing by mail or 7-10-business days using the online link. The Corporate Card will be distributed via interoffice directly to you.  

When leaving the employment of Georgia Perimeter, the American Express Card must be returned to the College.
