Welcome to the RSENR Purcard page where we will help answer questions you may have and help you better understand how the Purcard works and what your responsibilities are as a card holder.

Paying with the Purcard is the required venue of payment by UVM if the vendor accepts MasterCard. The Purcard is a unique credit card through UVM. This uniqueness is because UVM has the ability to dictate what types of expenses are allowed to be purchased on the card. The types of purchases are connected to Merchant Category Codes (MCC). MCC determine which types of purchases are allowed on the Purcard.
