Overview

Maestro is a global debit card payment network launched by Mastercard in 1991 to provide secure electronic payments directly from consumers' bank accounts. For decades, it has been one of the most widely issued debit card brands in Europe and has been accepted by merchants, ATMs and online businesses worldwide.

Within the iGaming industry, Maestro has been commonly used for online casino deposits due to its direct bank account access, strong security and broad acceptance across European regulated markets. While many operators continue to support Maestro, Mastercard has gradually replaced the brand with Mastercard Debit in several countries. As a result, Maestro acceptance is decreasing in some markets while remaining available in others.
