    Common Mistakes

    Our Acceptance Marks are key business assets—each mark represents a brand that is known, trusted, and respected worldwide. They must be applied thoughtfully, carefully, and appropriately.


    The Acceptance Marks:


    1. Must not include a name, identity, symbol, or mark other than a MasterCard Worldwide payments or cash access brand.


    2. Always must use the MasterCard Dark Blue Acceptance Rectangle in full-color reproduction.


    3. Must not be altered in any way. The elements, and the relationship between elements, must remain fixed.


    4. Must not contain the Brand Mark within a binocular lens-shaped outline.


    5. Always must use the appropriate drop shadow in MasterCard Dark Blue when signifying acceptance in full-color reproduction.


    6. Should not be used as a decorative device or in a repeat pattern.


    7. Must not use a grayscale, solid, or outline Brand Mark within an Acceptance Rectangle.
