Insights

This blockchain payment solution launch represents a significant strategic expansion for Nuvei in the LATAM market. The partnership with established players like Visa, BitGo and Rain creates a robust infrastructure for B2B cross-border payments using stablecoins, particularly USDC. The solution addresses key pain points in international transactions, including speed, cost and currency complexity.

The integration leverages Visa's extensive merchant network while incorporating blockchain technology's benefits, creating a hybrid solution that could accelerate adoption. This positions Nuvei favorably in LATAM's rapidly growing eCommerce market, complementing their recent expansion moves in Colombia, Mexico and Brazil.

The solution's focus on stablecoins rather than volatile cryptocurrencies demonstrates a pragmatic approach to blockchain adoption in traditional finance. This could attract conservative institutional clients while maintaining innovation credentials. The partnership with BitGo adds important security credentials that should boost merchant confidence.

LATAM presents a significant opportunity for payment solutions providers due to its large unbanked population and growing digital commerce sector. The region's cross-border payment volumes are substantial, with businesses facing challenges in traditional banking infrastructure and currency volatility.

Nuvei's comprehensive approach, combining local acquiring licenses with innovative payment solutions, strengthens their competitive position against both traditional payment providers and fintech competitors. The stablecoin integration could provide a meaningful advantage in processing efficiency and cost reduction for merchants, particularly in countries with complex currency controls or high banking fees.

Businesses in LATAM can now use stablecoins to make faster cross-border B2B payments and settlements through Nuvei's partnership with Rain, BitGo, and Visa
