   1.                                                   We note your response
to comment two. Please revise your disclosure in "Our Core
                                                        Business" where you
discuss establishing default interchange reimbursement fees to
                                                        clarify that the fees
your receive from issuers and acquirers are not derived from
                                                        interchange
reimbursement fees or merchant discount rates.

   2.                                                   We note your response
to comment four. You state a payments network service provider
                                                        "facilitates payment
processing" through its proprietary payments network and branded
                                                        payment products and
can also provide authorization, clearing, and settlement services.

         Please clarify whether this means that you sometimes "facilitate
payment processing"
         or provide authorization, clearing, and settlement services exclusive
of providing the
         other service. If so, clarify for us the circumstances in which that
occurs. For example,
         we note your proposed revised disclosure that payment processors
perform processing
         services on third-party networks and that you compete with them for
the processing of
         Visa transactions. Please tell us whether these payment processors use
your network and
         clarify for us what type of revenues, if any, you earn in these
circumstances.
3.       We note your response to comment five. You state the    transactions
 amount is
         significantly greater than the    processed transactions    amount
primarily because it
         includes transactions on Visa-branded payment credentials that are
processed by other
         payments networks. Please tell us what type of revenue you earn on
transactions
         involving Visa-branded payment creditionals that are processed by
other payment
         networks.
Risk Factors
Merchants' and processors' continued push to lower acceptance costs..., page 23

4.       We note your response to comment seven. In your response to comment
two you state the
         fees you receive from issuers and acquirers are not derived from
interchange
         reimbursement fees or merchant discount rates. Please clarify how
merchants' and
         processors' continued push to lower acceptance costs could harm your
business.

5.       We note your response to comment 14. You state "payments network
services" include
         Visa   s primary services of authorization, clearing and settlement of
purchase transactions
         as well as related services provided in the facilitation of money
movement. Please tell us
         and revise to clarify whether the term "payments network services" is
intended to refer to
         the "authorization, clearing, and settlement" subset of services
within the "data processing
         revenue" category, is intended to refer to your various services
generally (i.e., those that
         generate "service revenues," "data processing revenues,"
"international transaction
         revenues," etc.), or something else.

         You state that acceptance revenues are included in both service
revenues and data
         processing revenues. Please tell us why acceptance revenues are
classified in both
         revenue categories and clarify whether this is true on all acceptance
services provided or if
         it varies depending on the nature of the underlying acceptance
service. If the latter, tell us
         how you determine the category in which acceptance revenues are
classified.

6.       We note your response to comment 18. Please tell us in greater detail
why you believe

         any incentive allocation method would be subjective given incentives
can be tied
         to customer contracts and customer performance.
7.       We note your response to comment 19. In your response you state that
you have
         considered if growth strategies (new flows and value added services)
meet the definition
         of categories to be disclosed, but that the focus of your filings,
disclosures and earnings
         calls are on your existing disaggregation categories. Notwithstanding
the references to
         new flows and value added services in your earnings call identified in
the bullets below,
         stating that you disaggregate on a certain existing basis does not
speak to whether
         additional methods of disaggregation may be appropriate or necessary
based on the
         guidance in ASC 606-10-50-5 to 7 and 55-89 to 55-91.

         With regard to customer categories, you state you do not report
revenue by individual
         financial institutions on a regular basis. Please note that our
reference to the potential of
         disaggregating by customer type refers to customer categories not to
individual customers.

         You state you believe current disaggregation serves users of financial
statements well. To
         clarify our comment, we are not suggesting replacing your current
disaggregation, but are
         seeking to understand whether and how you consider supplementing those
categories with
         potential additional disaggregation based on additional categories
such as, but not limited
         to:

            type of customer (because you earn revenue from different customer
types such as
          acquirers, issuers, and merchants);
           consumer payments, new flows, and value added services (because you
disclose
          amounts related to these categories outside the financial statements
in your investor
          earnings call; it appears users of your financial statements were
interested in
          information on new flows and value-added services based on the call;
you reference
          investing to grow in these areas; you state that value added services
are affected
          differently by economic factors (   value added services clearly is a
whole range of
          new services that are not necessarily all tied to economic ups and
downs.   ); and you
          state that you   ve    organized that [new flows] business as a
single business   ); and/or
           specific geographic regions (because you disclose amounts related to
these categories
          outside the financial statements in your investor earnings call; and
you disclose in
          your risk factors    regulatory authorities and central banks in a
number of jurisdictions
          have reviewed or are reviewing these [interchange reimbursement]
fees, rules and
          practices   ).
