even b4 bank of America the system was there but it was not exactly in the form of card.Barclays had that system that b4 but surely BOA is the leader in the card industry.

Hi visa vs master card, Visa is accepted in more than 170 countries as a principle electronic payment network and is also a pioneer.Dee hock founded the VISA.

Its effort of Bank Of America and Barclays and one more french bank to promote VISA as a brand on international horizon.
