Today’s episode of Let's Talk Loyalty is created in partnership with our friends in Mastercard.

Our guest today is Kate Mescal-Pevzner, Senior Vice President of Global Cardholder Services for Mastercard, who joins us to share her insights on key trends in the global loyalty industry, as well as some incredibly exciting statistics from Mastercard on how people’s travel habits are changing.

While you won’t be surprised to hear that people are traveling more and more for unique experiences, it was fascinating to hear some of the reasons that people are choosing to fly – whether it’s to attend the concert of a superstar like Taylor Swift or something more unexpected like the recent solar eclipse in the United States!

With a truly global perspective on consumer insights, both from the data from their payments card business, as well as their flagship travel report from the Mastercard Economics Institute, I have no doubt you’ll enjoy listening and learning from Kate Mescal-Pezvner from Mastercard.
