Switch go to Maestro

The Switch card and MasterCard International is pleased to announce that the Switch debit card brand has migrated to Maestro.

Most Switch cards already carry the Maestro logo on the reverse enabling them to be used at cash machines and shops, however many cardholders are unaware of this facility and the move is aimed to simplify and clarify the issue with one recognisable brand.

The migration of the brand will take immediate effect and will be completed by mid 2007. In the early stages, most cards and shop windows in the UK will carry both the Switch and Maestro logos and then gradually the Switch brand will be withdrawn.
