Methods of Payment
PURCHASE CARDS
The City has issued Visa Purchase Cards to employees to use when they purchase on behalf of the City, either by telephone or in person. We would like to encourage the use of the Purchase Card since it provides immediate payment to our Suppliers and eliminates invoicing and cheque processing.
NOTE: Purchase Cards are not to be used where a competitive contract is in place unless special arrangements have been established with the City.
