Meaning and History
What is Maestro?
This is a debit payment system owned by Mastercard. The cards allow customers to make payments and withdraw cash at ATMs worldwide, where the system’s cards are accepted. The main feature of these cards is that all transactions are made directly from the customer’s bank account, so transactions are processed instantly. This means that no credit limit is required, unlike credit cards. These cards are widely used in Europe and many Latin American countries and are accepted by millions of merchants and ATMs. Additionally, they offer high security through a chip and PIN code.
