Unlock the Future of Recurring Revenue in Emerging Markets with EBANX
An exclusive payments gathering San Francisco | May 21
Join a select group of industry leaders for an afternoon of insights, strategy, and connection—designed for businesses that thrive on recurring revenue. From performance-boosting tactics to unlocking the full potential of local payments in rising markets, this intimate event will prepare you for what’s next.
Real Growth, Real Results: Local Payments Powering Subscriptions
Global demand for digital subscriptions is booming—but in emerging markets, success is defined by how local your payment strategy is.
One leading global streaming platform partnered with EBANX to localize its payments in Brazil, where traditional credit card use is limited and Pix dominates. By implementing Pix for recurring billing—a feature built with EBANX—and offering installment payments on local cards, the platform unlocked thousands of new subscribers.
The result?
These insights are part of EBANX’s 2025 Beyond Borders report, which shows that alternative payment methods (APMs) now account for 70%+ of subscription transactions in high-growth markets like Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia.
