Mastercard rejected payment control in games
Mastercard rejected claims that it is pressuring gaming platforms to restrict content or change payment systems. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

In the company's official statement, it was mentioned that their policies are aimed solely at preventing violations and ensuring payment security. Therefore, Mastercard presents itself as a neutral payment provider.

On the other hand, Valve believes that Mastercard has exerted monitoring and pressure on certain game content, particularly materials intended for adults. This has forced Valve to restrict some payment functions.

Valve representatives assess such actions as direct interference in commercial freedom. Mastercard, in turn, emphasized that all decisions should be made independently by the platforms.

This issue is currently being widely discussed on the internet, with users and experts expressing various opinions. This situation is leading to renewed attention to payment systems and content control issues in the gaming industry.
