(a) Definitions.
“Governmentwide commercial purchase card” means a uniquely numbered credit card issued by a contractor under GSA's Governmentwide
Contract for Fleet, Travel, and purchase Card Services to named individual Government employees or entities to pay for official
Government purchases.
“Oral order” means an order placed orally either in person or by telephone.
(b) The Contractor must accept the Governmentwide commercial purchase card for payments equal to or less than the micro-purchase
threshold (see Federal Acquisition Regulation 2.101) for oral or written orders under this contract.
(c) The Contractor and the ordering agency may agree to use the Governmentwide commercial purchase card for dollar amounts over the
micro-purchase threshold, and the Government encourages the Contractor to accept payment by the purchase card. The dollar value of a
purchase card action must not exceed the ordering agency's established limit. If the Contractor will not accept payment by the purchase
card for an order exceeding the micro-purchase threshold, the Contractor must so advise the ordering agency within 24 hours of receipt
of the order.
(d) The Contractor shall not process a transaction for payment through the credit card clearinghouse until the purchased supplies have been
shipped or services performed. Unless the cardholder requests correction or replacement of a defective or faulty item under other
contract requirements, the Contractor must immediately credit a cardholder's account for items returned as defective or faulty.
(e) Payments made using the Governmentwide commercial purchase card are not eligible for any negotiated prompt payment discount.
Payment made using a Government debit card will receive the applicable prompt payment discount. |
