Current Design
From mid-2006 Visa removed their trademark "flag" logo from all their cards, websites and retailer's windows. It is the first time that this logo has been omitted since the company was founded.
The new logo for all Electron cards is a simple white background with the name Visa in blue with an orange flick on the 'V', followed by the word "Electron" on a separate line. The card number is printed, not embossed in raised letters. Retailers often allow the card number to be keyed in, although an imprint cannot be taken and it leaves them at risk.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or design:
“We all participate in weaving the social fabric; we should therefore all participate in patching the fabric when it develops holes—mismatches between old expectations and current realities.”
—Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)
“Nowadays the host does not admit you to his hearth, but has got the mason to build one for yourself somewhere in his alley, and hospitality is the art of keeping you at the greatest distance. There is as much secrecy about the cooking as if he had a design to poison you.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
