Visa Debit

Visa Debit is a major brand of debit card issued by Visa in many countries around the world. Numerous banks and financial institutions issue Visa Debit cards to their customers for access to their bank accounts. In many countries the Visa Debit functionality is often incorporated on the same plastic card that allows access to ATM and any domestic networks like EFTPOS or Interac.

Visa Electron

Visa Electron was a debit card product that uses the Visa payment system. It is offered by issuing banks in every country with the exception of Canada, Australia, Argentina, Ireland and the United States. The difference between Visa Electron and Visa Debit, a similar product, is that payments with Visa Electron always require on-line electronic authorisation, and typically require that all the funds be available at the time of transfer, i.e., Visa Electron card accounts may not normally be overdrawn. Most Visa Debit cards, on the other hand, may be processed offline, without online authorisation, and may allow transfers exceeding available funds up to a certain limit. For that reason, Visa Electron cards are more commonly issued to younger customers or customers that have poor credit. Online stores and all offline terminals do not support Visa Electron because their systems cannot check for the availability of funds. In addition to point of sale debit payments, the card also allows the holder to withdraw cash from automated teller machines (ATMs) using the Plus interbank network.

In 2001, Banque Misr began offering the cards.

Many banks have migrated away from Visa Electron and instead issue Visa Debit cards; as such, Visa Electron issuance is declining.

Visa Electron has been discontinued globally in 2024. It has been replaced with Visa Debit.

VPAY

Visa Europe has designed the V PAY bank card for European consumers based on a chip and a PIN. The V PAY card makes it possible to pay in the shops and withdraw money from distributors all over Europe. V PAY thus contributes to the establishment of a Single European Payments Area (SEPA). As the first SEPA compliant product, the V PAY card uses the particularly secure EMV chip.

Thanks to the reliability of the EMV technology, V PAY offers two decisive advantages in terms of security:

  • With V PAY, transactions take place only by chip and PIN - the account data required for payment and found on the magnetic strip can no longer be abused (so-called "skimming") . Since the launch of this V PAY product in 2007, no case of skimming fraud has been recorded. Only supplementary services such as the printing the account statements or the opening of the door are still done via the magnetic strip
  • V PAY - as a chip-based payment process - excludes fraudulent use from a forged card. ATMs detect the absence of chips and therefore do not accept card copies.

V PAY is therefore a cross-border bank card solution that is both simple and secure, ideal for everyday use. V PAY cards can be used at millions of merchants and thousands of ATMs across Europe. V PAY cards are accepted all over the world, where EMV chip and PIN technology is available.

Yellow Card, the leading licensed stablecoin payments orchestrator for Africa and the emerging world, announced a partnership with Visa (NYSE: V), a global leader in digital payments, to help drive the next phase of innovation in cross-border payments and financial infrastructure across emerging markets where Yellow Card is licensed to operate.

Through this partnership, Visa and Yellow Card will collaborate to explore stablecoin use cases and opportunities to help streamline treasury operations, enhance liquidity management, and enable faster, more cost-effective money movement across borders.

Yellow Card operates in 20+ African countries and provides access to secure, compliant, and accessible stablecoin products for consumers, businesses, and developers.

Visa (NYSE:V), a global leader in digital payments, and Bridge, a leading stablecoin orchestration platform and a Stripe company, today announced a new card-issuing product. Fintech developers using Bridge can now offer stablecoin-linked Visa cards to their end customers in multiple countries through a single API integration.

Cardholders will be able to make everyday purchases from a stablecoin balance at any merchant location that accepts Visa. For example, when a customer in Colombia shops locally and uses their Bridge-enabled Visa card to pay a merchant, Bridge deducts the requisite funds from the customer’s stablecoin balance and converts the balance into fiat, enabling the merchant to get paid in their local currency like any other transaction. Customers can add these cards to supporting digital wallets and pay at the 150M+ merchant locations that accept Visa.

Developers building with Bridge can now easily add stablecoin-linked Visa cards to their product offerings and manage these programmatically through Bridge in multiple countries. Behind the scenes, Bridge moves and converts stablecoins from and to those cards on behalf of developers. Bridge is working with Lead Bank as a financial institution partner.

The integration enables issuance of new card programs in multiple countries at once, starting with Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru and Chile. The focus on Latin America aims to address the growing demand for consumers and businesses to utilize stablecoins to store value and fund everyday purchases. Availability will expand to countries in Europe, Africa and Asia in the coming months.

The combined, global company provides digital payment products, services and processing to about 17,100 financial institution clients and partners, 40 million merchant outlets, and 3.0 billion Visa cards worldwide. Visa–branded cards and payment products enable approximately $6.8 trillion in global payments volume annually.

At the closing of the transaction (the "Closing"), the Company:

  • paid up-front cash consideration of €12.2 billion ($13.9 billion);
  • issued preferred stock of the Company convertible upon certain conditions into approximately 79 million shares of class A common stock of the Company, as described below, equivalent to a value of €5.3 billion ($6.1 billion) at the closing stock price of $77.33 on June 21, 2016; and
  • agreed to pay an additional €1.0 billion, plus 4% compound annual interest, on the third anniversary of the Closing.

Quarterly Results ​

2025Q3 ​

On May 15, 2025, Visa issued fixed-rate senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of €3.5 billion with maturities ranging between 3 and 19 years, and interest rates from 2.250% to 3.875%. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, the refinancing of existing indebtedness.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, Visa repurchased approximately 14 million shares of class A common stock at an average cost of $349.24 per share for $4.8 billion. The Company had $29.8 billion of remaining authorized funds for share repurchases as of June 30, 2025.

On July 29, 2025, the board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.590 per share of class A common stock (determined in the case of all other outstanding common and preferred stock on an as-converted basis) payable on September 2, 2025, to all holders of record as of August 12, 2025.

StableCoin

We believe that Visa's role is to do what we always do: provide trust, standards, connectivity, billions of endpoints, scale, and interoperability to the payments ecosystem.

Beyond capital markets use cases, we see product market fit for stablecoins in two important areas: one, in emerging markets where the local fiat currency is volatile and/or where consumers do not have easy or affordable access to US dollars; and two, in cross-border money movement, both B2B payments and consumer remittances.

We have deployed stablecoin-linked cards in many markets around the world with partners such as Bridge, Rain and Baanx.

Since 2020, we have enabled crypto users to spend more than $25 billion in Bitcoin, Ethereum and an array of other cryptocurrencies, and now stablecoins.

We are also enabling cross-border money movement capabilities for P2P and B2B in certain emerging markets. And we are piloting and partnering with stablecoin payments companies who specialize in these markets, as we build out our stablecoin treasury stack for settlement and money movement flows.

A recent example is with Yellow Card in Sub-Saharan Africa. Together, we are working to streamline treasury operations, improve liquidity management, and enable quick and more cost-efficient cross-border transactions. Additionally, we are also helping banks issue their own stablecoins and realize the benefits of programmable money through our Visa Tokenized Asset Platform. And we offer multi-chain and multi-coin, stablecoin settlement on the Visa network. We recently expanded our capabilities by adding a euro-backed stablecoin, EURC, and through a partnership with Paxos, two additional regulated stablecoins, USDG and PYUSD. We are also adding support for two additional blockchains, Stellar and Avalanche, enabling us to support four stablecoins running on four unique blockchains, representing two currencies that we can then accept and convert to over 25 traditional fiat currencies across the world for our clients within settlement infrastructure. There is so much more to come in this space, and we are excited about enabling commercial and money movement flows globally across networks, currencies and form factors.

The first, on the emerging markets use cases, the bulk of those markets around the world are very cash-rich markets. The bulk of those markets around the world are markets where we haven't been as successful digitizing cash as we have in more mature markets.
And so to the extent that stablecoins get adopted in a broad-based way by both consumers and businesses, and assuming that we are able to continue to have success with our playbook of making Visa cards the preferred way for people who have stablecoins in those markets to pay for things, I think that could accelerate our progress digitizing consumer payments and business, small business and commercial payments in those markets.

The second product – area of product market fit that I mentioned was cross-border. And as you know well, the cross-border TAM in terms of whether it's remittances or B2B money movement, those are enormous TAMs that we're still relatively low in terms of our penetration of those as well. And so I think to the extent that we can do the types of things I was mentioning in the question that Will asked earlier for remittances on our Visa Direct platform, that's going to be an opportunity for us to continue to expand and accelerate our growth in remittances.
