Default Conditional formatting for rows

Formula is: =IF($G1="visa",true,false)
Do this somewhere in row 1, then copy the format everywhere you need it. The
$ sign locks the formula on column G, while the row number is floating.

I'm familiar with conditional formatting, but cannot figure out the formula
to highlight an entire row based on the contents in one cell. For example,
for every cell in column G that contains the word "visa", I would like that
entire corresponding row to be highlighted. Can anyone tell me the formula?
Thanks!
