Challenges
Navigating the payment landscape in emerging markets
Offering only international cards can lead to higher decline rates, make it harder to follow local regulations and accept local currency, and complicate cross-border payments for subscriptions. Platform users in each market have their own local payment preferences, such as paying with eWallets in Indonesia and M-Pesa in Kenya, or using PIX in Brazil.
For merchants in this industry, the obstacles don’t stop here. Issues with chargebacks, fraud, and currency fluctuations are frequent.
Expanding operations in emerging markets is also challenging due to fragmented financial systems, which complicate payment management and compliance. This makes scaling across emerging regions complicated and calls for a solution that simplifies payments, improves conversion rates, and supports growth.
