## Source summary

PYMNTS reports that Mastercard CFO Ling Hai described the network credential as a common layer for in-person, online and agentic commerce during a September 10 conference appearance. Hai pointed to Mastercard's technology role in the UAE's Jaywan domestic switch, which he said handles nearly all local debit processing, and said the August BVNK acquisition is being used to add stablecoin orchestration and white-label wallet capabilities for use cases including B2B settlement and cross-border remittances. He also said value-added services account for about 40% of Mastercard net revenue.

## Why it matters

The comments connect Mastercard's card credentials, domestic-switch infrastructure and acquired stablecoin capabilities into one stated growth strategy. They are executive statements reported from a conference, not evidence that a new product or corridor launched on September 14. The article gives no BVNK integration timetable, live customer, stablecoin volume, pricing, corridor coverage, adoption or independently measured outcome; the Jaywan share and revenue mix are Mastercard's claims.

## Key numbers

- **Value-added services share of Mastercard net revenue:** about 40% (executive statement)
- **Jaywan share of UAE local debit processing:** nearly 100% (executive statement)

## Topics and entities

- Industry lane: Payment infrastructure

## Evidence and credibility note

Readable PYMNTS report quoting Mastercard CFO Ling Hai. The strategic priorities and operating figures are attributable to the executive; the article does not establish a new September 14 launch, completed BVNK integration or independently measured stablecoin outcome.
