Interestingly, I've spotted a few places in Portugal already accepting Pix as a form of payment, catering to a large demographic of Brazilian immigrants and tourists.
- renrutal 1y agoThere is no PIX in Portugal, or places other than Brazil. What they have there is a Brazilian person receiving payments from another Brazilian person, only through Brazilian accounts, all happening remotely in Brazil(at least for now)
- marcosdumay 1y agoWhat they have is a payment gateway that integrates the Portuguese and Brazilian payments by doing a transfer at each side. It's the same thing as buying stuff from China with PIX, but the gateway is more hidden from the Portuguese accounts.
- jowea 1y agoThere has been some talk of actually internationalising Pix, but from what I understand, those uses that exist now outside of Brazil are a kludge for the benefit of Brazilian tourists.
