How to accept the GSA SmartPay 2 Charge Cards

GSA SmartPay 2 is a follow-on program to the original GSA SmartPay program, the Government’s charge card program. Government cardholders utilize the program to pay for commercial goods and services, travel related expenses, and fleet expenses.

GSA SmartPay 2 cardholders may carry the following cards: VISA, MasterCard, Voyager, and Wright Express. Voyager and Wright Express cards may only be used for fleet related purchases. You can maximize your ability to capture Government sales by accepting these charge cards. If you already accept these cards from the commercial sector, you have no additional work to do as the GSA SmartPay 2 charge cards operate just like any other corporate charge cards. If you do not currently accept these cards, contact any financial institution or one of the GSA SmartPay 2 contractors (i.e. only Citibank and U.S. Bank carry Voyager or Wright Express cards) to establish a merchant account.

If your company already accepts the charge cards listed above, there is no additional cost to accepting the GSA SmartPay 2 cards. The transaction fees you negotiated with your bank to accept the cards from the private sector will apply to Government sales as well. If you do not currently accept one or more of these cards and would like to participate, the cost of acceptance is negotiated between you and your selected financial institution.


The GSA SmartPay® program provides charge cards to agencies/departments throughout the U.S. government, as well as tribal governments, through master contracts that are negotiated with major national banks.

SmartPay® Charge Cards are for Official U.S. Government usage only.
