The Visa Enabler Network (VEN) is Visa's business development and sales organization focused on building strategic relationships with Enablers that expand the reach and distribution of Visa products and capabilities. VEN identifies, develops, and grows Enabler partnerships that help Visa reach multiple downstream clients through a single technology or infrastructure relationship.
Visa Enablers are companies that provide technology, infrastructure, platforms, or services that allow financial institutions, fintechs, software companies, merchants, and other businesses to connect to Visa, access Visa capabilities, or deliver Visa-enabled payment products.
