NYSE · USA · Segment 3 of 6 in the Banks, payments & capital markets value chain: Payment rails & networks

Visa lends nothing. It takes a small cut of the value of every transaction that crosses its rails, which makes it a toll on global spending rather than a lender.

Payment rails & networks: The networks and processors that take a fee every time a card is swiped, the fee engine.
