Answer: Priceless

It was in 1997 that Mastercard started using the slogan 'There are some things that money can't buy; for everything else, there's Mastercard.' The slogan became part of Mastercard's 'Priceless' campaign, and in fact, was so important to the brand that Mastercard registered 'Priceless' as a trademark.

The first ad in the campaign ran during the 1997 World Series. The advertising strategy behind the campaign was to position Mastercard as not only a friendly credit card company, but as one with a sense of humor.

Answer: five digits

ZIP stands for Zone Improvement Plan. ZIP Codes were introduced in 1963 to speed mail sorting and delivery. The original ZIP Codes were all five-digit numbers. These were later expanded by the addition of four more digits (#####-####) to further narrowly define the point of delivery.

The first digit of a ZIP Code represents a group of states. The first three digits define the "sectional center" through which mail will be sorted. The last two digits generally define a post office and the additional four digits generally specify a specific route.
