The new jobs are being supported by IDA Ireland and will more than treble the size of Mastercard's workforce in the country's first major multinational jobs announcement of 2020.
"Our new campus will help us continue to attract the best and brightest tech talent, so that we stay on the forefront of emerging tech trends and are well positioned to forge the future of digital commerce across the globe," Mr McLaughlin said. Martin Shanahan, chief executive at IDA, said the expansion of Mastercard's new European Technology Hub is excellent news and demonstrates a substantial commitment to Ireland, making it a key location in the company's global operations.
Taoiseach Leo Varadkar said today's jobs announcement is excellent news and further proof of Ireland's place as a global hub for technology.

Some good news for a change
Great news. Keep up the good work FG
So long as these Jobs are brought to Dublin that's all that matters.
What is the percentage of Irish people that will be taking on ? Is it like the other tech companies here maybe 3, 4 % irish workers imployed ?
Once again the rest of the country is forgotten.
Great, even more congestion in our capital. It's such a pity no other town or city in Ireland could house this expansion. What with our diesel powered horse and carts and rudimentary country ways.
Credit where credits due!
More jobs outside Dublin please.
