Our history

PagSeguro's mission is to democratize financial services and promote innovative solutions to its 23+ million clients. In operation since 2006, PagSeguro's provide complete solutions for online and offline payments with the highest variety on the market of payment methods. Regulated by Brazil's Central bank, it acts as an issuing bank and card acquirer, with partnerships with major card schemes.

The company's huge success led to the launch of PagBank in 2019, aiming to democratize banking services through free internationally-enabled credit cards, transfers, loans with fees more competitive than the market standard, and more.

In 2012, PagSeguro (PAGS NYSE) acquired BoaCompra, and thus started also allowing companies worldwide to process and collect more than 140 local payment methods and local currencies in 17 Latin American countries, plus Portugal, Spain, and Turkey. It also provides instant single or mass cross-border payouts to Brazil.

As a provider of solutions for foreign merchants, PagSeguro is well established as the market leader in the online gaming segment, having processed local payments for more than 6,000 games, including giants Valve, Garena, EA, Xsolla, Ubisoft, and G2A. When BoaCompra was originally founded, in 2004, that was its main goal: to increase Brazilian gamers’ access to worldwide gaming publishers, as well as improve business opportunities for those companies in the highly connected country.
