When designing travel / expense policies for your startup, I would strongly encourage you to include the option "[Your manager / purchasing / the founder] has a purchasing card and business travel is an appropriate use for it; we're happy to book tickets / hotels for you."

(The only reason I wouldn't suggest "Company pays for everything on its own payment methods by default" is that this takes a bit of friction all of the time and that it is a true thing that putting business travel on one's own card is considered a de-facto perk by some folks.)

Also, have mentioned this before, but MAKE DOUBLE PLUS SURE you make this offer for candidates. You have far, far less expectation that a candidate will be in a good financial situation than your employees will be, and they have less reason to trust your payment timeline.
