Visa

India’s war on cash has at least two likely victors: Visa Inc. and Mastercard Inc.

Visa Inc. has clarified its position on EMV debit card routing to address growing concern among merchants that the card brand's rules were forcing those transactions onto the Visa network rather than allowing merchants to choose among less expensive options.

Biometrics has long had an interoperability gap. Visa is trying to address that with a new project that brings flexibility to biometric options.

The long-term promise of mobile wallets has been that plastic cards could disappear, even from the point of issuance.

The card networks earlier this year introduced faster versions of EMV payments to ease checkout times. They've since had a hard time winning merchant adoption.

Merchants have been allowed to surcharge in most states for the past three years, but many were not aware. That's starting to change.

Visa closed its acquisition of Visa Europe in late June, ending a year of negotiations and years of speculation in the payments industry.

In his last earnings call as Visa's CEO, Charles Scharf spoke about the card brand's outlook for new technology and China.

In a world filled with a growing number of options for instant and same-day payments, the paper check still holds strong as a barrier to innovation. But it could also be a sign of opportunity.

Alfred F. Kelly Jr. may be planning to run Visa his own way, but he will still face the same challenges his predecessor did. Here are a few of Visa's most immediate issues.

Longtime Amex exec Alfred F. Kelly Jr. will be taking over as Visa CEO at a time when much is at stake for the global card network.
