What is Mastercard?
Mastercard processes payments through a global two-circle interlock mark. Red and yellow overlaps on dark or white backgrounds appear on billions of cards, contactless stickers, and priceless campaign art.

Mastercard brand colors — FAQ
Are Mastercard HEX values official?
We compile widely published Mastercard values for design workflows. Regulated marketing may require approved color specs beyond this reference. Always confirm critical launches with official guidelines.
How should I pick a primary Mastercard color?
Start with swatches tagged Primary or Logo in the table. Pair with a neutral text color and test contrast at 4.5:1 for body copy and 3:1 for large headings.
Can I export Mastercard colors to CSS or Tailwind?
Copy HEX from any row, or feed a single accent into our Tailwind config generator and CSS variables tools for 50–950 ramps.
Do Mastercard colors match print or packaging?
Screen HEX is sRGB. Print, signage, and merchandise often use Pantone, CMYK, or coated ink systems that shift appearance under different lighting.
