In plain English
Mastercard runs the world's #2 card network — the rails connecting thousands of issuing banks to ~150M merchant locations across 210+ countries. It never lends or issues cards itself; it charges a thin fee on every switched transaction, and increasingly sells value-added services (cyber, identity, data) that already make up ~38% of its $32.8B revenue and convert ~46% to net profit.
