UMB Purchasing Card

PCard Program

The UMB Purchasing Card (PCard) is designed to simplify the purchasing of authorized goods and services costing $4,999 or less.

Closing a PCard

A PCard must be closed if the cardholder transfers departments, retires or separates from employment, or if the card is lost or stolen. The card remains the property of the bank and must be surrendered immediately to the PCard Admin Team.
IMPORTANT  If your PCard is lost or stolen, you must immediately contact U.S. Bank at (800) 344‑5696 and pcard-admin@umaryland.edu
