The Touch Card feature benefits people who are blind or partially sighted. They are able to distinguish their payment cards from one another using touch alone.

Announced in 2021, Mastercard’s Touch Card improves accessibility for customers who are blind and partially sighted. It features innovative, tactile notches. They are rounded for debit, squared for credit and triangular for prepaid. As a result, anyone can identify their cards with just a touch. Mastercard’s Touch Card has been vetted and endorsed by various industry organisations around the world.
