Procurement cards assist with the reduction in procurement bureaucracy and boost efficiency. Controls are in place that limit purchase types and values in line with individual departmental controls.

Departmental expenditure made on government procurement is published on gov.uk: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/gpc-spend
