Travel Card Application Instructions & Application Link

Application Format

Travel Card applications are on-line.

Initiated Travel Card applications will route electronically for approval, first to the indicated supervisor and second to the applicable Senior Business Officer (SBO). Upon SBO approval, the application will route electronically to the Corporate Card Program Administrator for processing.

After the application has been approved, the applicant will receive an email with a link to the Travel Card's on-line training program.  Travel Card training, which takes approximately 30 minutes, is mandatory. 

Applicants will be contacted when their Cards are available for pick up at Travel Management & Corporate Card Services, and after mandatory on-line training has been completed.  Cards are typically available for pick up 5 business days after the SBO has approved the application.
