B2B Opportunities

BIP, Single Use, Supplier Cards

P-Card & Payables Cards

Initial P-Card Deployment

Inconsistence Approach

Multiple programs in

place with multiple

banks

Acceptance rate of card

brand can vary

Cards don’t support

cardholders — they don’t

work when needed

Different functionality by

country; makes

implementation,

management and

training more difficult

Collating paper expense

reports for approval gives

no visibility of data

Disparate card programs

provide limited or no data

electronically or create

paper processes

Reporting solutions

should be web based and

available 24/7/365,

multi-currency, multi-

language and should

support multiple countries

Lack of integration with

EMS & ERP systems

Company level support

needs to be available

within office hours for

program administrators

Cardholder support not

multi-lingual

Lack of local knowledge

and expertise around

highly complex country

laws and regulations

Card provider that is not

part of an integrated

treasury model

Lack of skilled client

advisory services and

single point of contact for

card solutions
