Penn State International Calling with a Prepaid Card

Prepaid calling card services are authorized for international calling ONLY (while within or outside the United Sates). Employees may use their choice of prepaid calling card, but should purchase one with a reasonable cost.

The University Controllers Office has approved these conditions for using prepaid calling cards - (see FN21).

Purchase of prepaid calling cards are not permitted on the Penn State Purchasing Card unless authorized in advance by the Financial Officer. Otherwise, the employee should purchase the card and request reimbursement.
A log must be maintained of all calls made with this card and the log must be reviewed monthly by the budget administrator or budget assistant.

Tracking Usage
Call logs for tracking purposes are available as a printable form and as an electronic Microsoft Excel form.

*Note on Restricted Budgets:

Restricted budgets, such as those which have federal or federal flow-through accounts or other restricted funds which prohibit such expenses. Prepaid calling services must be 'x-coded' when purchased on general funds.

You must continue to use direct dial or Corporate Card (University Park) or ExecuBill Calling Card (not University Park).
