Visa traces its history back to 1958 when Bank of America launched its blue, white, and gold BankAmericard in California. In 1970, an association, National BankAmericard, Inc., was formed of those U.S. banks issuing BankAmericards. In 1974, Bank of America’s international licensees chartered an international company, IBANCO, to administer BankAmericard, Inc. outside the U.S. In 1976, IBANCO became Visa International and National BankAmericard, Inc. became Visa U.S.A.
