Mana Interactive Inc, a financial tech company whose purpose is to serve gamers, has announced a partnership with global digital payment platform Visa to expand its global transactional network and cardholder benefits.
Mana’s checking account and debit card allow gamers to get rewarded for playing video games and spending money on in-game purchases.
Joe Zhou, CEO and founder of Mana said, “We are proud to be working with Visa, a leader in the digital payments space. One of our goals at Mana is to provide the best experience to gamers as we empower them in their daily purchases. Visa, with their long history in multinational financial services, has established itself as the global leader in transactional networks and digital payments. This partnership gives more power to Mana cardholders throughout the transactional value process, expands offerings beyond gaming, and introduces even more rewards!”
The partnership will see Mana expand its Rewards Program and bring additional offers and perks. It will also allow Mana to offer more benefits to cardholders such as transactional data, an expanded global network, budgeting and more. Thanks to Visa’s global reach, the collaboration will allow Mana cardholders to complete transactions in more than 200 countries and territories.
Vanessa Colella, SVP and Global Head of Innovation and Digital Partnerships at Visa commented, “It’s exciting to see fintechs like Mana create solutions tailored to the needs of specific communities —like gamers. We’re proud to work with Mana to meet gamers where they are and reward them for in-game experiences and everyday purchases by harnessing the scale and reach of our network.”
Users can upgrade to Mana Pro for an annual fee of $119.95 which will grant them access to boosted rewards and other perks like a high-end metal card. Mana Pro users can also earn five times the points on gaming and entertainment subscriptions.
