When students travel to conferences, such as Phi Theta Kappa or National Association of Student Nurses, we usually give each student a Visa gift card with enough funds to cover meals not included in the conference fee. However, when there is a larger group (10 or more) it is difficult to purchase large numbers of gift cards. Because of so much fraudulent activity and scams, many stores have strict policies on the number of cards they will sell at a time and many of them require purchases in cash or with a debit card only. We used to give one or two cards for the entire group, but students complained that they are not always together once they get to the conference. How does other schools handle meals for groups of students traveling to conferences? Thanks.
