Some partnerships shape culture. Others reshape industries. You usually hear me talk about collaborations with athletes, teams, musicians, or creators. But a big part of the work also happens through collaboration — working with companies in the ecosystem to the innovations to the world. @Bridge is one of them. They’re focused on stablecoin infrastructure, helping businesses and developers offer stablecoin‑backed @Visa cards. It’s about expanding access, increasing options, and meeting people where the future is headed. We first unveiled this collaboration in 2025, starting in Latin America. Today, the stablecoin-linked cards are live in 18 countries, and we recently announced plans to expand to more than 100 countries by the end of the year, including Europe, Asia Pacific, Africa, and the Middle East. What this partnership represents, for me, is our commitment to meeting our customers and clients where they are, and where they are going next. It enables consumers to make everyday purchases from stablecoin balances at any of Visa’s 175M+ merchant locations. That’s a gamechanger. We’re laying the foundations to connect everyone, everywhere, to the most innovative, convenient, reliable, and secure payments network in the world. I look forward to what comes from this...

@0x_Timi @Visa In ways that we couldn’t do apart. This partnership just kicked it into high gear.

@f3cooper @Visa pushing the boundaries together 🫶

I’m proud to announce that @Visa is expanding our global partnership with both Red Bull Formula 1 Teams — Oracle Red Bull Racing and Visa Cash App Racing Bulls. This multiyear renewal reflects the extraordinary momentum we’ve built with Red Bull and our shared ambition to push what’s possible at the intersection of sport, culture and commerce. @visacashapprb @redbullracing

@leadlikeluke @BrutAfrique It’s something they’ll never forget — and neither will I. A truly rewarding program and experience.

@f3cooper @BrutAfrique What a meaningful experience.. connecting with the next generation is always powerful! 🌍❤️

One of my favorite aspects on my trip to Morocco that I found really moving was visiting with the AFCON Kids Escort program. Here’s my message to all the children: @BrutAfrique

@Visa has been named #1 on @Evident’s AI Index. The Evident AI Index for Payments is a global standard benchmark of AI maturity in financial services. So, at Visa, we consider this a really big deal, especially placing #1 in innovation. AI has been an integral part of Visa for more than 30 years, and we continue to see the value in AI, investing more than $3.5B in AI and data infrastructure over the last 10 years. Here are some practical ways we’ve brought AI to life, recognized by Evident: ▪️ Scam disruption – Fun fact, Visa was the first network to use AI for risk and fraud management over three decades ago ▪️ 485 AI solutions are already patented ▪️ 133 of those were patented in 2024 ▪️ 300+ AI models are currently in production ▪️ Some of those products include Visa Intelligent Commerce, Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, Visa Protect for A2A, Visa Account Attack Intelligence, and so much more. We’ve been recognized not only for our ability to build these capabilities ourselves (our technology platform is powering over 100 products with AI today), but also in acquiring them. We have invested over $100M in generative AI ventures to the next generation of companies focused on innovating the future of payments.

We couldn’t be prouder to feature @OksanaMasters journey in our latest brand anthem. Oksana’s extraordinary multi‑sport record reflects the type of leadership and impact Visa is proud to support.

Across Milan and beyond, fans are out exploring, discovering local spots, and sharing experiences around a major global sporting moment. VisaNet data is already showing increased activity during the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 for local businesses, which is always great to see — but what really stands out is the energy and connection happening on the ground.

As individuals in our personal lives and as leaders of teams at work, there’s one attribute that is often overlooked or deemed inaccessible, but that may be the most important determinant of unlocking your or your team's full potential: courage. I know that when many of us hear the word “courage,” we think of epic adventures in heroic action that is fantastical. But the truth is that the “heroes' journey” is an inner journey — and it takes courage to avoid the path of least resistance and take on the challenges that will nurture your growth. More importantly, in the book How to Be Bold, @RanjayGulati demonstrates that there is a science to courage and that courage is accessible to any of us. In other words, he illustrates that courage is not simply an innate characteristic allocated to the brave few. Rather, courage is learned behavior that you and I can develop. On your path of “becoming the person you want to be,” courage is needed. As a leader of an organization or a team, you need to cultivate a culture of courage to meet the accelerating change companies' face in today’s world. Any of us can become braver or more action oriented in our personal lives or at work, if we are willing to put in the work to develop the muscle memory behind courageous action. Later this month, Ranjay will be joining me in a conversation about his new book and the idea of everyday courage. Is there anything you’d like me to ask him? Leave your question in the comments and I’ll try my best to fit it in. I will share the final conversation in the next episode of Frankly Speaking.

Everywhere you’ve gone and everything you’ve done shapes where you’re going. Take it from @MikaelaShiffrin & @OksanaMasters. I’m proud of @Visa’s latest brand anthem films. #TeamVisa #MilanoCortina2026

For me, it has to be, “Dreams without a plan are just dreams. They’re just illusions.”

Everyone celebrates their wins, but sometimes 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐮𝐬.

I saw @eldsjal mention that album listening has increased by nearly 35% on @Spotify in 2025. That’s why my favorite album of 2025 had to be @Clipse’s Let God Sort Em Out. In fact, I listened to it on multiple flights. I’m going with this one because not only was it a great album, but it was also such an improbable outcome. It’s extremely rare to see a rap artist, let alone a rap group, reunite and come back from the abyss like that. And then to do it in a way that’s so profound and meaningful. People online couldn’t stop talking about it... What was your favorite album of the year?

Sound check... Any @jennierubyjane fans out there? Now you too can #TravelLikeJENNIE. In our latest collaboration, JENNIE describes her journey on the Road to Ruby in her own words.
