Was going to put this in L&A, but wanted the wider audience, I have always "assumed" that paying for stuff on a credit card was better as it offered more protection,
For example I am paying for a lot of flights with this gig, I usually use the company debit card for simplicity in not having to claim back from myself etc.
My bank charges me a small fee per transaction so it would be a little bit cheaper to buy everything on a credit card/charge card and make a single transaction from the company business account.
If I use a Business Amex i get the bonus of airport lounge access, and the fee will be covered by the company, but would I still get the extra assurance afforded by paying on credit cards or is it more a consumer protection thing only?
(PS for those who are going to invariably say get a personal credit card and use that instead, I want to avoid doing that for reasons I'm not going to go into here)
