MasterCard is the network for your debit card's POS transcations.
That's the logo in the front.

Your debit card is may be using use a different network for ATM transactions.
The ATM / PIN Debit network logo is usually on the back of your card.

e.g. If it say Plus on the back of your card, it is Visa's exchange rate.
