San Francisco, United States, June 12th, 2024, Chainwire
Topper integrates Brazil’s Central Bank-Managed Pix for Instant Payments on 200+ digital assets.
Today Topper, a fiat-to-crypto on-ramp by the global web3 financial platform Uphold, announced their Latin American expansion plans to begin offering streamlined crypto payment solutions, beginning in Brazil. This milestone propels their mission forward: to foster the mass adoption of crypto and to create global seamless crypto transactions across Topper’s partners and their users.
With a diverse range of over 200 digital assets and coverage in more than 150 countries, Topper has integrated Pix as a payment method, a quick payment service run by Brazil’s Central Bank. By offering Pix as a payment option when buying crypto through Topper, Topper’s partners have a more reliable and efficient means to serve their customers in Brazil.
“Expanding into Latin America, beginning with Brazil and Pix, is a big leap towards our goal of fostering worldwide crypto adoption,” shared Robin O’Connell, CEO of Uphold Enterprise. “We’re thrilled to introduce Topper to the 26 million crypto-savvy users in Brazil, offering them an easier and more dependable way to step into the world of web3.”
Expanded benefits for Topper’s partners and users in Brazil:
- Instant payments: with Pix, users make instant payments from their bank to purchase crypto in real time. As such, Pix has become the preferred payment option in Brazil.
- Cost-Efficiency: Topper will provide the most competitive processing fee for Pix transactions in the market, ensuring a cost-effective way to buy crypto in Brazil.
- Enhanced Security: Pix transactions boast top-notch security measures, offering peace of mind for crypto purchases.
Pix is an instant payment platform created and managed by the monetary authority of Brazil, the Central Bank of Brazil (BCB), which enables the quick execution of payments and transfers.
