Our Purpose is to uplift everyone, everywhere by being the best way to pay and be paid

We will remain focused on ensuring that Visa is a diverse and inclusive environment where different perspectives are valued, and all of our employees feel comfortable coming to work every day to do their best.

— Alfred F. Kelly, Jr., CEO

Inclusion is the idea that all identities matter and are embraced as an asset with value. Inclusion is not simply representation. Inclusion is behavioral - it invites and welcomes all identities as respected business partners.

— Michelle Gethers, Chief Diversity Officer & Head of Corporate Social Responsibility
