How to pay for office supplies with a credit card

Every office needs ongoing supplies. 

From pens to notebooks, sticky notes to scissors and staplers to laminating sheets, there is always something to buy. 

You might need new calculators, envelopes, printer ink or shipping and packing supplies. 

The office staff kitchen might even need more tea and coffee or a new water filter.

Sometimes the list never ends.

However, with pay.com.au you can make sure you are rewarded for providing your staff with all the office supplies they need to do business. 

Regardless of whether your supplier accepts credit card payments or not, with pay.com.au you can pay for all your office supplies with a high points-earning rewards credit card.

Not only can you rake in the credit card rewards points, but by paying for your office supplies by credit card you could also enjoy up to 55 days interest free to pay. 

With low fees and a simple and easy-to-use interface, pay.com.au can help you do business better.

Paying for new printer ink could help get you on your way to a Broome holiday.

How can you pay for office supplies with a credit card?

Some office supplies wholesalers might not accept credit card payments, or may only accept VISA and Mastercard.

But don’t worry – with pay.com.au you can pay any invoice using a high points-earning credit card to maximise your rewards.

As avid frequent flyer points collectors know, American Express cards are best when it comes to earning the most points. 

With pay.com.au, you have the flexibility to use American Express cards to pay for all your invoices.

The process is simple: You make a payment at pay.com.au with any credit or charge card of your choice – VISA, MasterCard or American Express – and we will pay your office supplies invoice on your behalf.

The timing between a credit card payment made by you and receipt by the payee is typically only T+2 days. 

And by paying with a credit card, you can enjoy up to 55 days interest free on all your office supplies, potentially helping with any short-term cash flow problems you might have.

How many points can you earn paying for office supplies with a credit card?

This depends on the size of your office and the size of your regular office supplies orders, but you could potentially earn many thousands of points a year.

With the right business credit card you can earn up to 1.25 points per dollar spent on office supplies when paid through pay.com.au
