PagBrasil co-founder and co-CEO Ralf Germer said: “Brazil’s e-commerce market has not ceased to attract international attention in the past few years and is now back at double-digit growth rate.

“However, the market’s particularities in terms of payment methods, as well as the country’s regulatory framework and its overly complex tax system, can restrict market entry.

“This partnership is a logical step towards enabling merchants to expand to Brazil more easily. APACPAY’s extensive merchant network can now efficiently sell in Brazil, offering local payment methods through PagBrasil’s payments platform.”
