Small and medium-sized companies that use the PayPal Complete Payments (PPCP) payment platform will be able to accept Pix at checkout in their sales. The launch is one of the steps in the company’s strategy to expand its operations in Brazil.
The American company completes 15 years of operation in the country in 2026 and launched PPCP this year. The tool integrates cards and other forms of payment with management tools, with PayPal security and fraud protection standards. Pix checkout, a new option on the platform, is a payment process through a link with pre-defined values.
“Pix is already part of Brazilians’ routine. By incorporating it into our platform for SMEs, we expand the options for entrepreneurs and facilitate the payment journey, with a solution that combines the security of PayPal with what consumers already use on a daily basis”, says the general manager of PayPal Brazil, Brunno Saura.
But PayPal also evaluated merchants’ priorities evaluated in its own survey, Panorama PayPal: SMEs and Digital Commerce in Brazil 2025. According to the survey, transaction security (49%) and ease of use (39%) are among the main criteria considered in this process.
The survey also shows that digital payment tools are among the resources most valued by entrepreneurs: six in ten consider these solutions essential, and 77% already use payment platforms in the digital environment.
This new option is launched at a time of expansion of e-commerce in Latin America, expected to reach US$944 billion in 2026. Alone, Pix accounts for almost a third of online sales in Brazil, one of the largest consumer markets in the world.
