Mastercard GCC in India

About Mastercard's India GCC

Among Mastercard’s India locations, the Pune Tech Hub is the closest to a traditional Global Capability Center (GCC). Functions: It performs global technology operations, including payment safety, cybersecurity, fraud detection, digital identity, software engineering, and analytics. These services are delivered not just for India but for Mastercard’s worldwide operations, which is a defining characteristic of a GCC. Strategic Importance: The hub acts as a center of excellence for Mastercard’s global technology and digital innovation, supporting enterprise-wide initiatives across multiple countries. Other locations in Vadodara, Gurugram, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru primarily function as regional offices, delivery centers, or satellite tech hubs, supporting either India-specific operations or niche functions, and don’t serve as comprehensive global service centers.
