About Mastercard
Mastercard is one of the oldest payment methods. While the brand was founded in 1966, it was not until 1988 that the first Mastercard was issued. Today, the payment network processor is available in almost all countries worldwide.
You can use Mastercard to make payments online and at local stores. The payment method is usually connected to the users’ bank accounts, allowing them to perform transactions directly from their accounts.
Security and Safety
As one of the biggest and most popular banking options, Mastercard pays attention to users’ money and data safety. First, regardless of your type of card, your details, such as the 16 digits and CVV, are only known by you. Besides that, to ensure that transactions originate from the appropriate users, most banks that issue Mastercard uses a two-factor authentication method to authenticate transactions.
If you want to make payments using your card, your bank will send a One Time Password (OTP) to your registered phone number or email, which you have to provide to authenticate the transaction. This is in addition to the PIN (Personal Identification Number) that you have initially set for your card.
Fees and Charges
Depending on the issuer of your Mastercard, you may be charged fees for transactions and maintenance. Some financial institutions charge fees per transaction, while others charge monthly.
We recommend that you check the fees section of your bank to see what applies in your case. If you cannot find details about the fees online, you may need to contact the customer support department of your issuer.
