    No, it wont appear on your credit file.

    Your name is embossed on the card, but this is only a means to transact against an account. In this case, the account is the responsibility of your company - not you. Its similar to being an additional user on someone else's personal credit card.
    The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
