Visa carried out its first live international card transaction in Syria with Lebanon-based Fransabank and payments firm Paymera, while Mastercard and QNB completed an end-to-end international Payment in parallel.

Visa shares rose intraday to $380.52, marking a new 52-week high. Drivers included revenue growth of 14% to $11.6bn in fiscal Q3 2026, earnings per share of $3.32 that beat expectations, and an upward revision of the full-year outlook. Additional boosts came from the announcement of an approximately $1.1bn stake by Pershing Square, analysts raising price targets, and growth prospects from the acquisition of BioCatch. Visa therefore outperformed the overall weaker US market on that trading day. » Altro su de.investing.com
