Travel Card

What can I use the Travel Card for?

• Airline tickets

• Airline change fees

• Airline seat fees (if “free” seats are not available, look at the next pricepoint for available seats - first class seats cannot be purchased with University funds)

• Baggage fees

• Car rental

• Car rental insurance (if you are not using a preferred rental company)

• Conference registration

• Flight insurance

• Fuel

• Ground transportation

• Lodging

• Membership dues

• Parking

• Toll fees

• Travel agent fees

• Visas for foreign travel

What happens after I make a purchase with the Travel Card?

T-card purchases will be processed in Chrome River by the T-card holder. T-card purchases can be found in the “eWallet” section of Chrome River. As with reimbursements, you will need to have a business justification and allocation for every purchase. As your financial preparer will not be processing T-card expenses, communications about corrections, policies, etc. will be coming directly from our accountant, Eric Gregor.

Important info to keep in mind

• You can only book travel for yourself on your T-card

  • If you need to book travel for someone else, please ask the staff

• Expenses must be entered and explained within 30 days of purchase

• Unallowable expenses, including accidental personal purchases, can either be deducted from your next paycheck or you can receive a bill from the University
