Lodge Card
A lodge card is a centralized corporate credit card used for travel expenses like flights and hotels, managed by travel departments to consolidate spending. Unlike individual corporate cards, it covers multiple employees or guests, leveraging negotiated vendor rates. Systems auto-import and match lodge card transactions with bookings, flagging non-compliant charges. Allocation to departments or projects ensures accurate cost tracking, while controls restricted usage. This simplifies reconciliation, enhances compliance, and optimizes travel budgets through detailed reporting and integration with expense systems.
