MasterCard Worldwide is a driving force at the heart of commerce, enabling global transactions and building economic connections to make commerce faster, more convenient, more secure, and more valuable to everyone involved. As a technology-driven, global payments company, MasterCard provides a critical link between consumers, financial institutions, and millions of businesses and merchants worldwide.
Our customers include approximately 22,000 financial institutions and other entities in more than 210 countries and territories. We provide our customers with innovative services enabling them to use electronic forms of payment instead of cash and checks to make everyday commerce activities such as shopping, traveling, running a business and managing finances easier.
Powered by the MasterCard Worldwide Network — the fastest payment processing network in the world — MasterCard processes more than 23 billion transactions each year. The network has the capacity to handle more than 160 million transactions per hour, with an average network response time of 130 milliseconds and a 99.9 percent reliability rate.
As it looks to the future, MasterCard is committed not only to continuing to deliver value to consumers and other stakeholders, but also to promoting the advantages of electronic payments, accelerating the displacement of cash and checks, and advancing commerce across the globe.
