Bowman is the second senior departure for Square in a month, following the exit in December of chief financial officer Sarah Friar for Nextdoor.

Bowman joined Square in 2015 after 11 years at Amazon, where she was a director of global payments.

In her new role she will lead Visa’s strategy for acceptance products and services to "transform the payment experience for both sellers and consumers".

Says Visa: "This is a critical role, as the point of sale is undergoing dramatic change as it shifts from traditional payment acceptance to digital, cross-channel payment experiences."
