MasterCard was not invented by a single person, but rather was developed by a group of bankers led by a man named Dee Hock. The company was originally called Interbank Card Association and was founded in 1966. The idea behind Mastercard was to create a universal payment card that could be accepted by multiple merchants around the world.

∙ 11y agoDear Friend,
I do not have your answer; however, I have an important lead. Until the 1970s, their name was originally "Master Charge." This name change was for obvious P.R. reasons and not to shove the fact that a person was charging their life away. On a side note Visa had changed their name near the same time period. However, I cannot recall the previous name, because they had changed it so greatly.
Good luck in you quest!
