Rights to Code

[younis]

I read in the terms of use that if I use Visa Developer then Visa has all the rights to the code. Does that include the rest of my code, or do I just have to forfeit rights to the parts that I used Visa developer for? I also read that they have to assess whether or not the code goes against other rules. Does that include all of the code I wrote? Basically it's important to me to keep my own code, and I don't want it shared elsewhere. Thank you in advance.

Know of anyone I can contact directly to get an answer on how rights to code work with Visa?

Hi @younis,

What's the API product that your query relates to? You can Browse All Products and choose the API that best fits your use case.

Any API used to verify card and pin matches. Would I have to give up all rights to my code if I use them? Or is it just the parts I used Visa Developer for?

Hi @younis,

You can use our API code to implement it into your company's business.

So can I assume MIT License or other open source license?

Hi @younis,

Please confirm the API product you're interesting in using for your project so that I can further assist you. The answer is also dependent on the API product that you're using.

Thank you for your quick replies @DianaVisaPM.

I am interested in using any API needed for verifying visa cards at terminals. No other API's are likely to be used.
