They have nothing to do with VISA and cannot prove it...

It is called "Monaco VISA" card. Why is it called "VISA" if you cannot use it as a VISA card?
All right, so it's not a VISA card. Who then, MasterCard? And who is the card issuer?
Please re-read the material. Why would you think it is not intended to be a VISA card?
The devs already replied saying that they are cannot put any VISA logos on the marketing material until the final card proposal is approved by VISA.
