Latin America’s e-commerce is booming, with transaction volumes projected to reach USD $870 billion across the six markets by 2026. But navigating LATAM’s unique payment preferences, infrastructure and regulations can be complex.
With each market offering its own favoured methods and regulations, we understand the nuances of local payment landscapes. Our expertise helps PSPs and merchants unlock growth by simplifying payments, with our compliant solution.

The power of local payments in LATAM
That’s where PPRO comes in — we simplify local payments and enable businesses to unlock this dynamic region’s full potential.
Access the local solutions powering a regional market
In LATAM, 56% of e-commerce transactions are made using local card schemes, with local payment methods increasingly becoming the preferred choice.
However, international businesses often encounter a significant hurdle: less than a third (29 percent) of LATAM consumers have credit cards enabled for overseas payments. This can lead to payment failures and lower approval rates for cross border transactions.
PPRO maximises conversions with intelligent, data-driven payment flows. With our in-country acquirer connections, we enable smart routing strategies to boost card approval rates.
Local payments, processed locally.
Enjoy higher approval rates with PPRO’s Merchant of Record model, which enables domestic processing of both local and international cards like Visa, Mastercard and American Express for merchants outside the market.
As your MoR we adhere to complex local regulations, to help you to enter these markets seamlessly. This lets you increase your authorisation rates, and settle internationally in the currency of your choice, all while offering a localised payment experience for your customers.

FAQs
What is a Merchant of Record and how does it work?

This is especially important in Latin America, where regulatory environments and payment preferences can vary significantly across countries. By acting as the MoR, we support you to enter these markets seamlessly, increasing your authorisation rates, and offering a localised payment experience for your customers.
