When it comes to business purchasing, travel and entertainment, choosing the right credit for your organisation is critical. That is why the new Corporate Connections MasterCard has been developed to provide so much more than simply the purchasing efficiency and global acceptance you would expect from a corporate card.

Our one card strategy gives you the convenience of making a variety of purchases from general procurement & purchasing to travel & entertainment.
Provided you remain within your overall facility limit, there is no limit to the number of cards available to employees within your organisation.
Your suppliers enjoy almost instant payment while you can benefit from an interest free period of up to 35 days after purchases, allowing you to spread the cost of purchases over the month.
Save time and effort on paperwork with the convenience of automatic monthly payments. At the end of every month St. George automatically debits the total balance of card transactions to your nominated account.
Cardholders will be able to obtain cash advances and make purchases up to the available balance on their card. We provide you with the flexibility to set individual cardholder credit limits and daily ATM cash withdrawal limits.
Additional deposits to card accounts can be made via B-Pay, or over the counter at St. George or Bank SA branches.
You won't need special software to integrate MasterCard Connections Online into your existing accounting system. It lets you or your staff transfer data electronically, saving hours of administrative time each month. If required, all transactions can be allocated a general ledger code and/or a project code. For maximum efficiency, reports and data can even be downloaded, if required, into your organisation's own financial management system.
We provide you with the flexibility to allocate cards to selected employees and set their individual credit limits (between $500 and $250,000).
ATM cash access is available throughout the world with each cardholder using their own Personal Identification Number. Daily ATM cash withdrawal limits can be specified for each cardholder between nil and $2,000.
MasterCard Connections Online uses a hierarchical reporting structure. The hierarchy groups cardholders, departments, or divisions for the purpose of running reports, exporting transaction data and reviewing transactions. The administrator will have the highest level in the hierarchy and will have access to all levels, including supervisors and accounts.
You have the ability to control cardholder spend by monitoring cardholder expenditures, reviewing reports that summarise all card transactions, purchases at specific merchant types, and so on. Reports can be scheduled to run at whatever frequency you require - eg. daily, monthly, weekly, quarterly etc.
Cardholders can check and authorise transactions via MasterCard Connections Online as frequently as required. They can split transactions online if they are for multiple purposes (eg. lunch bill - part FBT and part not) or for general ledger allocation across multiple cost centres.
You have the ability to create a secure access hierarchy, so that transaction and account data can be shared throughout your organisation with appropriate levels of security access.
Liability / unauthorised use insurance is included at no extra cost, protecting your organisation from employee misuse or fraud. Up to $20,000 per individual cardholder and up to a maximum of $150,000 per overall facility. Transport Accident Cover is provided to cardholders while travelling as a passenger on a licensed plane, tourist bus, train or ferry when the ticket is purchased on their Corporate Connections MasterCard.
