There are two main channels available for transacting with third-party suppliers: credit card or purchase order

The preferred method varies based on the type and/or amount of the transaction or the businesses for which you are transacting.

  • For low-value expenditures, where suppliers accept payments by Visa or MasterCard, bp may use the credit card as the preferred payment method.

  • For all other transactions, purchase orders will be raised.
