5 ways how your adult business can triple Brazil revenues with PIX
PIX, Brazil’s most popular payment method has given a huge boost to e-commerce and online payments since its creation in 2020 and is an absolute gold rush for the adult industry.
PIX is a real-time payment system that allows users to quickly and securely make payments using their bank accounts or e-wallets. Since its creation PIX has been widely accepted by Brazilians with over 550 million accounts making over 36 billion instant transactions worth well over USD 3 trillion.
PIX was designed and is controlled by the Brazilian Central Bank to make instant payments available to all. It is a robust system where vetted financial institutions can join and offer PIX for free to their clients. This is key when it comes to accessibility, where the client can easily make and receive payments through PIX right on their bank or e-wallet application.
Brazilian PIX Keys are a type of secure authentication code used by the Brazilian Central Bank to provide an extra layer of security for online banking customers. A PIX Key is a code that must be used to complete any financial transaction. This code is used in addition to the customer’s regular bank card number and PIN. The Brazilian Central Bank developed the PIX Key to reduce fraud and increase the security of online banking transactions.
Since Pix was launched, over 550 million keys have been registered in the Central Bank’s directory, comprising those freely chosen, as well as those registered by tax ID, cell phone number, and e-mail address. By October, 141.4 million Brazilians had already used PIX.
Brazilians have learned to use PIX for their day-to-day transactions and interactions such as withdrawal, payment, scheduled payment, and payment in installments and it has also been widely used to pay for services and products in person and online.
