The financial services company reported net revenue of $5 billion in the third-quarter of 2021, up by 30% year-on-year. Earnings per share at $2.37 per share vs. $2.19 a share expected.

”We are extending the scale and power of our trusted network through innovations like our new Mastercard Instalments program.
