Visa posted Q3 2026 revenue of $11,633 million, beating Wall Street's estimate of roughly $11,402 million by about 2%. Earnings per share came in at $3.32 against an expected $3.23, a beat of nearly 3%. The results extended a steady climb in quarterly revenue that stretches back to the $8,900 million Visa reported in Q3 2024.
The underlying business drivers were notably strong. Payments volume rose 10% while data processing revenue jumped 17%, pointing to both more transactions and higher fees per transaction flowing through Visa's network. On top of the operating results, the company returned $6.2 billion to shareholders during the quarter through buybacks and dividends.
