The importance of offering local payment methods
Check out the full landscape of payments in Latin America:
Between domestic-only credit cards, fast-rising new payment methods
such as Pix and digital wallets, and a constant state of
digitalization, offering local payment methods to Latin American
customers is key to increasing sales and customer retention.
Almost half of the population remains unbanked
Alternative payments can reach customers who still prefer to use cash.
Most Latam cards are not enabled for international use
Local payments are vital to international transactions.
Paying in installments is a widespread practice
Purchases in multiple installments increase conversion rates.
Digital payments are changing the game
Digital payments are the future of online and in-person payments
for Latam. In leading market Brazil, instant payment method Pix
grows its P2B transactions by 53% per month.
An emerging market
Latin America is full of potential,
