Visa in the Netherlands

Visa in the Netherlands forms an important country in the Central Europe (CE) cluster (Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland and Lichtenstein).  Netherlands is among the Top 15 largest economies in Europe and represents a significant growth opportunity for Visa. V PAY/Visa Debit, Contactless and e/m-commerce have reached a real turning point in the Dutch payment industry, heavily dominated by debit. This will be a key driver for further growth and is imperative to win further share in the market, especially with the Launch of Visa Debit in the market.

By driving consumer and merchant preference for Visa’s products and services, Visa is transforming the way in which it goes to market.  Furthermore, the company is investing in innovation and marketing initiatives to elevate Visa’s position in the payments ecosystem to champion Visa to be everywhere you want to be.

With a number of new market players emerging from across the fintech ecosystem, Visa has the opportunity to harness its global assets to deliver strong loyalty programs for ‘core’ clients and merchants for card payments.  The company is closely collaborating with all key clients in the market and deep partnerships with our clients is a fundamental part of our strategy.  Increasing Visa’s preference in digital will enable Visa to drive its ambitious growth targets on Credit, Debit and Commercial.

Visa is at another inflexion point for growth. The company has a strategic mission to leverage the best of Visa’s global capabilities and local payment ability in a rapidly changing world.
