Church Credit Cards

Got a question about church credit cards today. Thought I'd post about them.

At GCC, we do our best to help facilitate ministry. We want every ministry to succeed. We try very hard to make sure that our staff doesn't have trouble purchasing the stuff they need to do ministry.

So, we offer all of our staff that are responsible for purchasing the ability to use a Granger Community Church credit card. We also allow them to use their own credit card for ministry purchases. In either case, the staff member is responsible for paying the statement and requesting reimbursement for ministry expenses.

Along with the priviledge of using a church credit card also comes some responsibility. So, for those who are issued a church credit card we require the following responsibilities:
  • GCC Credit Cards are for budgeted GCC ministry expenses only
  • GCC Credit Card balances should be paid on time and in full every month
  • If for some reason the balance isn't paid on time and in full, the staff member is responsible for paying the late fees or finance charges
  • Violations of these could lead to cancellation of the card

We have the ability to set the credit limit for each card based on the staff member and their purchasing needs. We also have the ability to monitor all of the cards to make sure they are being used appropriately and paid on time and in full.
