Charge cards

Here, you can read more about how to handle purchases when travelling on business, for example, or on other occasions where you cannot get an invoice for your purchase.

Private cards

If you have business travel-related expenses as a Lund University employee, you can apply for a Eurocard charge card with personal payment liability. Approval from your head of department/equivalent is necessary.

  • The card has no annual fee, no cash withdrawal fee, no additional charge for purchases in foreign currency, and the card invoice allows 30 days for payment.
  • The invoice for purchases is in the card holder’s name and is paid by the card holder. In the current general agreement with SEB Kort Bank AB/Eurocard AB, the requirement is that the card holder must immediately connect to e-invoicing and/or direct debit. Otherwise, the private card will be transferred to another agreement, with other terms, between the card holder and SEB Kort Bank AB/Eurocard AB.
  • Reimbursement for business expenses paid is applied for by the card holder in Primula. Payments via Primula are made three times per month.
  • Via "My Eurocard" online and in the "Eurocard" app, you can view your purchases, both those already invoiced and those not yet invoiced. You can also choose whether your card is to be open or locked for online purchases, view your PIN code, etc.

Bear in mind that, as this is a card with personal payment liability, any reimbursements will be paid to the card holder who has requested reimbursement or made a claim against a payment.

Never provide your card number, codes or personal details in any other context than when making a payment.

Purchase account/Virtual card

In cases where there is a need to make online purchases and payments, departments/equivalents may apply for a virtual (multiple transaction) purchase account or a virtual single transaction card. Please note that the virtual cards are not intended as general means of payment but are only to be used in exceptional cases, when invoices are not an option.

Virtual purchasing account (multiple transactions)

  • A business account that can only be used for online purchases
  • The account is not a physical card
  • The account details are personal and are not to be disclosed to, or used by, anyone other than the administrator of the purchasing account
  • Pursuant to the EU payment services directive (PSD2), identification with BankID is required for purchases
  • The invoice for purchases is addressed and sent electronically to Lund University

The head of department/equivalent determines whether a purchasing account is necessary.

Ask for the application form for a purchasing account using the LU Finance support form. Select the category "Ingoing and outgoing payments – Charge card".
