Charge cards

Corporate card

If you have business travel-related expenses as a Lund University employee, you can apply for a corporate card with individual billing at SEB Kort Bank AB/AirPlus (formerly known as Eurocard). Approval from your head of department/equivalent is required.

• The card has no annual fee and the invoice has a 30-day payment period. The currency exchange fee is 0.98%.
• The invoice for the purchases is issued to and paid by the cardholder. It is possible to subscribe to e-invoicing and/or direct debit.
• The cardholder applies for reimbursement of work expenses incurred via Primula. Payments via Primula are made three times per month.
• You can view your purchases, both invoiced and uninvoiced, via the “AirPlus portal” online and in the “AirPlus” app. You can also choose whether your card should be open or closed for online purchases, view your PIN code and more.
• The card cannot be used for cash withdrawals.

Applying for a corporate card with individual billing

You and your line manager sign an electronic agreement on the use of a corporate card at Lund University. The agreement is then sent to the Division of Finances via the support form:

1. Choose the category “Ingoing and outgoing payments – Charge card”
2. Indicate in the description field that the request pertains to an application for a corporate card and who the application is for.

Cancellation of the corporate card

The cardholder is to notify AirPlus’s customer service that the card is to be cancelled when the holder’s employment ends. The card can also be cancelled in the “AirPlus” app. LU Finance conducts annual checks to reconcile the employee register with the AirPlus account register.

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".

LU Finance Division support form

Send the completed form to LU Finance Division, internal mailing code 31, or by post to Box 117, 221 00 Lund. Attach an explanation of the need for a card to the application, which is to be signed in the original by the head of department/equivalent.

Virtual single transaction card

If necessary, it is possible to obtain a virtual single transaction card.

This card is issued for a single transaction, for a limited amount and is valid only for a limited period, usually one week. Contact the LU Finance Division using the support form.
