You may also want to consider a Travel Card
A travel card is for individual UB business travel only; it cannot be used for group travel. There is no annual fee and there is no credit check. A travel card separates your business travel from personal travel.
NOTE: A travel card does have a revolving account. All expenses must be paid when the bill is due. If you are interested, complete the Travel Card Application, sign and have your Chair/Dean sign it, and send the completed application to 208 Crofts Hall, Attn: Karen Scott.
