I’m sure MC would prefer to keep collecting the processing fees with a client of this size — the problem is that there has now been a very public report of illegal practices taking place on the site and MC’s lawyers must think that continuing to process payments on the site could make them vulnerable to criminal or civil penalties. Would you risk your massive global business for one client? I wouldn’t. I agree that it would be nice to see due process happen first, but I don’t blame companies like MasterCard from proverbially yeeting this stuff away.
