dLocal (https://dlocal.com), an award-winning fintech company that specializes in cross-border payments for emerging countries, announced today that Amazon went live with dLocal’s local payments acceptance services in Chile.
“Amazon has a long history of pioneering online innovation and bringing e-commerce to the rest of the world,” said Sebastian Kanovich, CEO of dLocal. “We are honored to enable Amazon customers in Chile to shop on Amazon.com with international and domestic credit cards, including interest-free installments and Amazon Prime Video subscriptions in Chilean Pesos.”
Payments infrastructure in Chile and other emerging countries in LATAM, APAC and MENA is fragmented and complex. Companies that enter these countries without the ability to accept locally-relevant payment methods are often unintentionally limiting their reach and hindering their growth.
dLocal’s award-winning solution enables some of the world’s most innovative companies to gain a competitive edge in emerging countries across LATAM, APAC and MENA. The company has been developing deep expertise in each local country it serves. Its flexible, next-generation payments technology platform supports over 300 local payment methods under one friendly, easy-to-use API.
The platform bridges the gap between the needs of global, online enterprises and payments realities in emerging countries. dLocal operates as the local merchant of record on behalf of its clients, speeding time-to-market and minimizing operational costs. It also provides built-in, value-add services that include automated currency conversion, guaranteed fund repatriation for settlement in the U.S. or Europe, optimization of local payment operations and other localization-related advisory.
