'''Cirrus''' (stylized as '''cirrus''') is a worldwide [[interbank network|ATM network]]. It is a subsidiary of [[Mastercard]] and based in [[Purchase, New York]]. Founded in 1982, it links Mastercard and [[Maestro (debit card)|Maestro]] credit, debit and prepaid cards and Cirrus ATM cards to a global network of millions of [[Automated teller machine|ATM]]s.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://brand.mastercard.com/brandcenter/more-about-our-brands.html |title=More About Our Brands |publisher=MasterCard |access-date=January 13, 2017}}</ref>

Prior to its acquisition by Mastercard in 1987, Cirrus System, LLC was owned by [[Bank of Montreal]], [[BankBoston|BayBanks Inc.]], [[First Interstate Bancorp]], [[Mellon Bank]], [[National Bank of Detroit#NBD Bancorp|NBD Bancorp Inc.]] and [[Norwest Corp.]]<ref name="Tribune">{{cite news|url=http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1987-09-07/business/8703080873_1_cirrus-system-teller-machines-mastercard-international |title=Mastercard To Acquire Biggest U.S. Teller System |newspaper=[[Chicago Tribune]] |date=September 7, 1987 |access-date=February 7, 2017}}</ref>

By default, Mastercard and Maestro cards are linked to the Cirrus network, but very often all three logotypes will be shown. Canadian, American and [[Saudi Arabia]]n ATMs use this network alongside their local networks and many banks have adopted Cirrus as their international interbank network alongside either a local network, the rival [[Plus (interbank network)|Plus]] ATM network owned by [[Visa Inc.|Visa]], or both. In countries such as [[India]] and [[Bangladesh]], the Cirrus network also serves as a local interbank network as well as an international network.

==Logos==
The first logo, advertised from 1982 until 1992, was then changed to match the ones representing the other subsidiaries of Mastercard, which acquired Cirrus in 1987. The only exception is the colour pattern change. This can also be noticed through the re-branding in 2016, since all the logos of Mastercard, Maestro and Cirrus have been equally modified.{{multiple image
