They are like Coca Cola and Pepsi - both are pretty much sold everywhere, and there isn't a great deal of difference. The is some alligence to either brand, but most people aren't fussed either way.
Amex is the Virgin Cola. It's almost as good but hardly anywhere accepts it...0 -
Came across this explanation of MasterCard and Visa hope this helps was also told once that visa is cheaper to use in the USA0

The ownership structures of Visa and MasterCard are slightly different, but to the end user, they are just two different companies which facilitate the payment of money. For the end user, they pretty much do the same thing and are pretty much as widely accepted as each other."An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind" - Mahatma Gandhi0
