Regional Strategies

Key insight: Digital wallets dominate in Colombia (Nequi has 17M+ users).Recommended approach:
  1. Lead with Nequi/Daviplata in Colombia
  2. Offer cash options in Peru and Bolivia
  3. Use USD pricing in Ecuador (dollarized economy)
  4. USDT-first strategy for Venezuela
Watch out for: Currency controls in Venezuela, high cash preference in Bolivia.
Key insight: PIX in Brazil processes 40B+ transactions/year.Recommended approach:
  1. PIX is mandatory for Brazil โ€” no exceptions
  2. Offer USD alternatives in Argentina (currency volatility)
  3. Card-first works well in Chile (highest card penetration)
  4. Standard methods sufficient for Uruguay
Watch out for: Portuguese language for Brazil, exchange rate fluctuations in Argentina.
Key insight: OXXO has 20,000+ stores โ€” cash is king in Mexico.Recommended approach:
  1. OXXO is essential for Mexico
  2. Cards + Crypto covers most of Central America
  3. Consider remittance use cases (US connections)
  4. USD pricing simplifies multi-country operations
Watch out for: El Salvador accepts Bitcoin as legal tender, strong cash culture in Guatemala/Honduras.
