Applicability of Rules in this Manual
Applicability of Rules in this Manual
This manual contains Rules for the Mastercard?, Maestro? and Cirrus? brands. The Rules relate to Activity conducted pursuant to a License that Mastercard grants to a Customer for use of one or more of these brands and/or to conduct Digital Activity. If a particular brand or brands is not mentioned in a Rule, then the Rule applies to all three brands.
This manual also contains Rules for the Mastercard Electronic and Mastercard Mobile brands. The Rules for these brands apply only to those Customers Licensed to use either or both of these brands.
The below table describes the applicability of the Rules for particular types of Transactions. Please note that the term "POS Transaction" refers to a Transaction that occurs at a Merchant location, whether in a Card-present environment at an attended or unattended POS Terminal, or in a Card-not-present environment. In a Card-not-present environment, this may include electronic commerce ("e-commerce"), mail order, phone order, or recurring payment Transactions.
Refer to the Transaction Processing Rules manual for brand-specific Rules relating to acceptance in Card-present and Card-not-present environments and the processing of particular Transaction types.

Modifying Words and Acronyms
From time to time, the meanings of the above terms are modified by the addition of another word or acronym. For example, a Debit Mastercard POS Transaction means a Transaction resulting from the use of a Debit Mastercard Card at the point of sale (POS). However, for ease of use, not every modifying term is defined. While Mastercard alone interprets and enforces its Rules and other Standards, these Mastercard Rules endeavor to use defined terms and other terms and terminology in a plain manner that will be generally understood in the payments industry.
Variations and Additions to the Rules for a Geographic Area
Variations and/or additions ("modifications") to the Rules are applicable in geographic areas, whether a country, a number of countries, a region, or other area. In the event of a conflict between a Rule and a modification of that Rule, the modification is afforded precedence and is applicable. The Rules set forth in this manual are Standards and Mastercard has the sole right to interpret and enforce the Rules and other Standards.
