Card Services Department

The Downstate Credit Card Programs include PCard, TCard, and NET Card, all widely accepted Visa cards issued by J.P. Morgan Bank. They are designed to provide a more efficient means of making routine purchases and processing business travel by reducing paperwork and wait time on these transactions. This allows more purchasing responsibility and control at the department level and streamlines the purchasing and reimbursement cycles.
