Market variety

Consumers seek variety

Mexican consumers are going through a major digitization process, and are willing to purchase often and from a great variety of online merchants. It’s an ideal scenario for merchants starting or increasing operations in the country.

Navigating Mexico's challenging payment landscape

Even though Mexico has credit cards as the most common payment method, it’s one of the only countries in Latam with such a high percentage of debit card usage: they represent 25% of e-commerce spending, and continue to rise year after year.

 

As more debit cards in Mexico start being accepted online, opening up market space for merchants offering them as payment methods through partners such as PagSeguro, digital payments slowly gain space.

 

With PagSeguro, you can navigate this fast-changing scenario and make the most of Mexico’s opportunities.
