China approves Visa's locally registered bank card organisation
Original: Breaking | China approves locally registered bank card organisation for Visa
Chinese regulators have approved the establishment of a locally registered bank card clearing organisation for Visa, a key step toward the US payments giant processing domestic transactions in China. The move, reported by the South China Morning Post, opens the door for Visa to operate directly in the country's payments market, long dominated by UnionPay and mobile platforms, and signals gradual opening of China's financial services sector.
Why now: It marks a significant regulatory breakthrough for foreign payment firms seeking access to China's vast domestic market.
