Purchasing Card


For Campus Organization users, please see Campus Organizations' Student Purchasing Card Program page. For questions about campus organization purchasing cards, please contact Tim Livengood.

The Iowa State University Purchasing Card (P-Card) program allows for the procurement of certain low-dollar goods, services, and supplies by the end-user through the use of a credit card. The intent is to eliminate the need for small-dollar purchase requisitions and reimbursements. The P-Card program improves the processing and completion of low-dollar purchases of approved commodities from suppliers that accept a Visa credit card.
