CSAC Finance Corporation
CSAC Finance Corporation
Created in 1986, the CSAC Finance Corporation has spent the past 30-plus years helping local governments meet their financial needs by providing debt, investment and discount purchasing programs as well as financial training for county officials. Many of the ideas for new products and services have come from both public sector and business partners.

What is the CSAC Partnership Program?
CSAC believes in partnerships. Working together with a shared vision, we can make a difference. That is the foundation of our Association and a reason why our Partnership program has been so successful.
CSAC created the Partnership program more than a decade ago to foster a closer relationship between business and local government. This program provides an opportunity to join with public officials on topics such as transportation, public policy, criminal justice, municipal finance and leadership development.
This partnership presents value to corporations that work with local government on policy issues, as well as those that have a focus on business development.
Discount Travel Program
CSAC Statewide Travel Program
In partnership with the California Special District Association (CSDA), League of California Cities and the State of California, the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) is proud to offer the enhanced CA Department of General Services (DGS) Statewide Travel Program for the most economical rates available for travel-related services such as airfare, car rentals, travel agency services, and hotels.
Program Overview
A complete list of all contracts and information may be seen on the DGS Statewide Travel Program webpage: www.dgs.ca.gov/travel. Also, watch the Statewide Travel Program’s video about their efficient and cost-effective travel services.
How to Participate
Step 1: Contact Jennifer Shaw, DGS Travel Program Specialist. All necessary paperwork, applications and forms listed below will be provided by the Travel Program Specialist. They will also assist with the set-up process, provide instructions and answer your questions regarding participation in the program. Contact Jennifer Shaw at 916.376.3975 or jennifer.shaw@dgs.ca.gov.
Step 2: Apply for a Citibank Central Travel Account (CTA) via the DGS Statewide Travel Program. Citibank is the current required payment system for access to state discounted rates and contracts. The CTA payment system is a unique centrally-billed cardless account designed especially for this program.
Step 3: Establish an account with CalTravelStore, the state-authorized Travel Management Services (TMS) provider. In addition to 16 onsite travel agents that assist by phone, CalTravelStore also provides Concur, a one-stop online booking tool where travelers can book air, car, and hotel reservations all in one location and obtain access to the contracted state government rates.
Step 4: Work with CalTravelStore to establish your Concur online booking tool site. Provide CTA account information, accounting/billing code data, travel policy requirements, and an optional pre-trip approval process.
Responsibility of the County
It is the county’s responsibility to pay their CTA in full each month in a timely manner. If there are reconciliation issues, it is the responsibility of the county to assemble the details and make adjustments with Citibank and/or CalTravelStore. These issues should be identified, communicated, and adjusted as soon as they are discovered.
You will have access to two different online reporting systems to assist you with reconciliation of your account, CitiManager and the iBank reporting system. Enrollment in iBank is automatic when your account with CalTravelStore is created. Enrollment with CitiManager will occur after your Citibank CTA application has been processed and approved.
