Specific amount of money an organization allows an individual to spend per day. Typically, though not exclusively, this is to cover travel and subsistence expenses.

Per Diem means an extra allowance that you get for example from your employer. Most of the companies used to give Per Diem for their employees who travel out of the base for any job.
