ePayment (Welsh Purchasing Card)

Introducing the Welsh Purchasing Card

The Welsh Assembly Government and the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) have been working together to provide the xchangewales Welsh Purchasing Card (WPC). The procurement card is a low-cost method of ordering and paying for low-value, low-risk items.

The card is available at no cost to organisations of any size and is accepted by a huge range of merchants. This makes it suitable for buying virtually any type of goods and services.

Buyers do not need a purchase requisition or purchase order to pay for goods or services with the card. Furthermore, it eliminates the process of separately invoicing every order, with one monthly payment to the bank.

The card also benefits suppliers, providing rapid payment within 4 days. Suppliers can take advantage of further benefits, including reduced administrative costs and preferred supplier status.

Free support from xchangewales and the Royal Bank of Scotland is available to set-up and manage all aspects of your card programme.

Whether you're an existing or potential card user, or a supplier, please use our related information links to learn more about the Welsh Purchasing Card.
