  • Visa Account Updater Merchant List
    Visa Account Updater Merchant List The Visa Account Updater (VAU) Merchant List includes all merchants enrolled as of May 1, 2016. It is consolidated in an attempt to relay the most relevant and meaningful merchant name as merchants enroll at differing levels: by subsidiary, franchise, or parent organization. Visa recommends that issuers and merchants do not actively market the service to cardholders because: 1. We do not have 100% penetration on all sides. 2. We cannot guarantee that the information exchange between the financial institution and merchant will occur in time for the cardholder's next billing. 3. Some merchants on this list may have only certain divisions or geographic regions participating. Therefore, we do not want to create an expectation that the service will address all account update issues for all merchants listed. Visa Confidential: This document contains Visa's proprietary information for use by Visa issuers, acquirers, merchants and their processors solely in support of Visa card programs. Disclosure to third parties or any other use is prohibited without prior written permission of Visa Inc.
