Case Study: Mastercard frees legal capacity and accelerates contracting with Ironclad

Inside Mastercard’s Digital Transformation Through Legal

Mastercard, a 19,000+ employee global payments company, faced the challenge of scaling legal operations and keeping contracting from becoming a bottleneck amid rapid digital transformation and COVID-19–driven shifts. To modernize its legal workflows and improve speed and collaboration, Mastercard adopted Ironclad, including a rollout of Ironclad for NDAs and tools such as workflow designers, trackers, and e-signatures.

Ironclad implemented an integrated, end-to-end NDA solution—standardizing and automating templates, adding e-signatures, and deploying trackers and workflows—to streamline contracting and collaboration. The Ironclad deployment freed up meaningful capacity for Mastercard’s lawyers and business partners, enabled faster, more strategic legal work, and delivered immediate operational benefits even in the first months of rollout.
