JP Morgan Departmental CBA Card General Information
Central Billing Accounts (CBA's): These types of accounts bill directly to the departments. They may be established for air, rail, and bus charges. A department may also establish the CBA card to allow lodging establishment and rental car charges. This must be approved by the Assistant Dean or designee. FMO must be notified to initiate the change. Only reimbursable official state business travel may be charged to CBA accounts. Please see Allowable Central Billing Account card uses below.Central Bill Department Card Accounts: These cards are issued in department names and are billed directly to the department. Only reimbursable official state business travel may be charged to these accounts. These accounts work like Individual Billing Accounts however Texas A&M University assumes liability for charges instead of the individual cardholder.
Late Payment Fees: Late payment penalty is paid as per the Prompt Payment Act. If JP Morgan assesses a late fee to your central bill account, please contact travel@vpfn.tamu.edu to initiate a credit on your account.
PLEASE NOTE: If a charge is applied to the wrong CBA or to a CBA instead of to an individual corporate travel charge card account, JP Morgan WILL NOT TRANSFER the charges to the correct account. The original booking source, the travel agency or supplier, will have to process the transfer through the original booking system.
