Protecting the Planet

Visa is using the power of our network to accelerate transformation in sustainability and economic recovery, while helping ensure that the planet and economies around the world thrive.

Visa’s climate commitments


Visa operations

Our commitment begins with our continued efforts to minimize the environmental impact of our operations and activities “within Visa”—the footprint of our offices, data centers, business travel, employee commuting, procurement and other areas. Considering these areas and how they interconnect allows Visa to develop sustainability initiatives for different aspects of our business.

Sustainable commerce

As a global payments technology company whose network connects billions of consumers, millions of merchants and thousands of financial institutions, we continue to expand our initiatives toward being a climate positive company by embedding sustainability across our business and implementing initiatives to understand, inspire, engage and empower consumers and others toward sustainable living and commerce.
