The EBANX, a global technology company specialized in payment services for emerging markets, has expanded its four-year partnership with Stripe, a programmable financial services company, to expand payment method offerings in Brazil. Businesses using Stripe to process international payments can now accept payments from Brazilian customers via Pix and process transactions in Brazilian Real, with settlement available in their local currency.
“Our partnership with EBANX is important to expand Stripe users’ reach in Brazil, the largest market in Latin America. In today’s global commerce, offering the most effective payment options is often as important as what is being sold. Customers prefer payment methods they know and trust, which directly impacts financial results. Our research showed that businesses using Stripe that offer at least one relevant payment method beyond cards increased revenue by 12% and improved conversion by 7% on average”, said Krishnan Rajagopalan, Global Director of Expansion, Strategy, and Incubation Partnerships at Stripe.
An EBANX analysis based on data from the Payments and Commerce Market Intelligence (PCMI) research institution, the World Bank, and the Central Bank of Brazil revealed similar findings: by offering local payment methods in international transactions, global e-commerce companies can reach twice as many consumers in Brazil compared to relying solely on international acquirers. EBANX internal data also shows that global companies that started accepting Pix saw a 16% increase in revenue and 25% growth in the number of consumers in just six months.
“Working with Stripe to offer Pix was the natural path. There are 60 million people in Brazil who do not have a credit card. Meanwhile, 93% of Brazilian adults use Pix, and by the end of this year, the use of this method is projected to surpass credit cards in online purchases, according to PCMI projections published in EBANX’s study Beyond Borders 2025. In short, our partnership with Stripe strengthens the participation of Brazilian consumers and businesses in the global economy”, said João Del Valle, CEO and Co-founder of EBANX.
Both businesses integrated directly with Stripe and those using global e-commerce management platforms operating with Stripe’s infrastructure can now offer Pix for international transactions.
B2B (business-to-business) companies, which sell to other businesses, also benefit from Pix transactions. The system offers security and facilitates high-value payments. According to the Beyond Borders 2025 study, Pix already accounts for 51% of the value of online sales between businesses—more than double the share of e-commerce transactions for consumers, which stand at 20%. Bank slips (Boleto Bancário) rank second, accounting for 25% of the value of online B2B transactions in Brazil.
