About Visa Jordan Card Services

The strategic aim of the new Joint Venture was to expand and improve the acceptance infrastructure, and to support the members' other main objectives. As a consequence of cost efficient co-operation and resource sharing, the growth of Visa Card market in Jordan has been exceptional.
