1. STATE OF OKLAHOMA Purchase Card (P-Card) Program by Linda Powell

2. What is the P-Card? To put it simply, the P-Card is a credit card issued to State employees to purchase goods and services needed for conducting official state business at Fair and reasonable prices. Funds for P-Card purchases are encumbered upfront through an Authority Order in order to meet the prior encumbrance requirement (62 O.S.§ 34.62) It is a charge card - the merchant receives payment at point of sale It is not a debit card - funds do not leave account at point of sale It is not the same as a personal credit card – the State of Oklahoma carries no balances and pays no fees or interest It is a Corporate liability card meaning the liability rests with the State, not the employee

3. Transaction limits $5000 maximum single transaction limit (with the exception of utilities, SW Contract purchases issued by the Central Purchasing Director, Interagency payments, Professional services as defined in Title 18) Single transaction limits are determined at the agency level and set by the entity P-Card Administrator.
