Soccer governing body FIFA signed a new accord with Visa Inc. through 2022, extending an agreement that started amid controversy in 2007.

The world’s biggest bank-card network is the fifth FIFA partner to commit to both the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, following Adidas AG, Coca-Cola Co., Hyundai-Kia and Anheuser-Busch InBev NV. This year’s edition of the quadrennial event will be in Brazil.
