- Mastercard has collaborated with Mercedes-Benz to launch a revolutionary in-car payments solution, allowing customers to make fuel payments directly from their cars.
- Despite this groundbreaking innovation, Mastercard’s stock has experienced a 6% decline.
- The presence of a support level at $390 acts as a potential safeguard against further declines, and if the stock can overcome the $400 level again, it has the potential to reach and possibly surpass its previous all-time high, with year-to-date gains standing at 14%.
Mastercard Inc MA and Mercedes-Benz have joined hands to introduce an innovative in-car payments solution, representing a major advancement in automotive technology and financial transactions.
This collaboration aims to revolutionize the way customers pay for fuel, enabling direct payments from their cars through state-of-the-art fingerprint technology.
This groundbreaking partnership sets a new standard in convenience and security for customers, showcasing the endless possibilities of merging cutting-edge technology with everyday activities.
The innovative in-car payments system seamlessly integrates with its infotainment system and offers users an unprecedented level of convenience and efficiency.
Soon to launch at more than 3,600 service stations throughout Germany, this pioneering solution will provide thousands of Mercedes-Benz drivers with a secure and streamlined method to conduct transactions without ever leaving their vehicles.
The groundbreaking innovation is not being reflected in the stock price, which is currently down, hovering around $400.
However, this dip could prove to be a pivotal turning point, setting the stage for a potential surge in the value of the stock.
In fact, just last month, Mastercard reached an all-time high of $418, surpassing a previous record set in April.
The stock experienced a decline of more than 6%, briefly dropping below the $400 threshold.
Nevertheless, it has since recovered and is now nearing this significant milestone.
The existence of the subsequent support level below the price at $390 may serve as a safeguard, potentially minimizing the effects of any future downturns.
If the stock can break through the $400 level once more, it holds the potential to ascend, possibly surpassing its all-time high of $418. The year-to-date gains for the stock stand at 14%.
After the closing bell on Thursday, September 28, the stock closed at $399.44, trading up by 0.98%.
