I have a new consultant who has delayed getting her debit card & wants to place a supply order & booster order, can she use her personal cc like she did w/ her shows or does she need a pc visa or pc debit only (money order too).


She said she is applying for it today & needs supplies for a show a week from tuesday. I know it takes a few days to get the pc debit # & we live in Cali so that won't be here in time, & I don't have the items she needs.

TIA!!


Hope Everyone is having a Fabulous Monday!
 
Has she already applied for it?? If so she can call after 3 business days (i think) and get the number from the finance department...
 
how long has she been signed? I believe it told me I could use my personal for 30 days until I got my card.
 
I believe she can use a personal cc if she uses P3
 
You can use any credit card the first 30 or 90days.
