Local Payments in LATAM: Unlock 84M New Customers

Unlock 84 Million New Customers with Local Payments in LATAM

Accepting local payments in LATAM is the key to unlocking significant growth. In Latin America, international credit cards are not the norm; in fact, most banked users simply don’t have one. If your business only accepts card payments, you are missing out on the majority of the market. Letpay is changing that. We are excited to announce that your customers in Mexico, Peru, Chile, and Colombia can now pay the way they already do. Easily, locally, and without needing a credit card.

Why This Matters: A Market of 120 Million Users

Across these four key markets, over 120 million adults already use online bank transfers to shop, pay, and subscribe. The growth opportunity is immense because more than 96 million of these banked individuals do not have an international credit card.

Letpay directly connects you to the 80% of customers who would otherwise be blocked at your checkout. This simple change opens the door to a massive new client base.
