Workflow Steps

Step 1 - Employee Request Submission

Employee submits a request form, detailing their role, expected spending needs, types of expenses, and justification for needing a corporate card.

Step 2 - Manager Approval

The employee's direct manager reviews the request and approves it based on the employee's job requirements and travel frequency.

Step 3 - Finance Department Review & Policy Agreement

The finance team reviews the request, checks for policy compliance, and determines the appropriate credit limit. The employee is sent the cardholder policy to electronically sign.

Step 4 - Card Issuance & Activation

Upon final approval and policy agreement, the finance team issues the corporate card and provides the employee with activation instructions and guidelines for submitting expense reports.

The Purpose of Corporate Card Request

This process automates the application and approval for a corporate credit card. It ensures that employees who have a legitimate business need for a card are vetted and that they formally acknowledge the company's expense policies. It provides a clear, auditable trail for card issuance, helps control corporate spending by setting appropriate limits, and streamlines the expense process for employees.
