The only difference between the two is that they are competing credit card agencies. There is no real difference. Each one offers some minor things that the other does not, but they are interchangeable.

The major difference between the two cards is the interest rates. Before deciding which card to get compare interest rates and also whether there is a reward program associated with the card.

There is not much difference between the two cards; in today's society, most places accept either card and they both offer reward programs and different levels of cards. The only real difference is that some store systems have not been updated to accept Mastercard still, so Visa is probably slightly more widely accepted.

Mastercard and VISA were originally completely separate networks for processing credit transactions; today, most companies that accept one will accept the other. However, the card issuers are different, and Mastercard is far less common.

They are two different companies, and it's possible to find places of buisness that will accept one and not the other, but it's rare these days. They are more simmilar than say american express or discover.

Besides the fact that each card is owned by a different company, I believe the biggest difference is that some businesses might accept one card, but not the other.

Both Mastercard and Visa are credit cards that are widely accepted at home and abroad. Mastercard's minimum income to quality for the card is lower than Visa's requirement.
