Boleto (meaning 'ticket') Bancário is an official Brazilian payment method, which is regulated by the Central Bank of Brazil. It is a push payment system which was launched in 1993 and today generates 3.7 billion transactions per year. In Brazil, where two-thirds of its 200 million population do not have a credit card, Boleto Bancário is highly popular, generating over 50 million transactions a month. Local and regional merchants often offer discounts for Boleto Bancário payments as there is no chargeback risk, and payments are made upfront.
Why Boleto Bancário?
Accounting for around 25% of all online payment transactions, offering Boleto Bancário is a must for doing business in Brazil.
There are literally thousands of payment points where a Boleto can be paid in Brazil: ATMs, branches and internet banking of any bank, post office, lottery agent, convenience store or supermarket.
When it comes to online purchases, Boleto Bancário is especially popular for high-ticket items because many consumers still do not feel secure in providing their payment details online.
How it works
On the merchant's checkout page, the consumer selects Boleto Bancário as their preferred payment method.
The consumer is presented with a slip containing the amount, payment identifier and information about the payment.
The consumer prints the payslip or writes down the reference number.
The consumer is redirected back to the merchant.
At one of the supported locations, the consumer presents the payslip/reference number and pays the order amount.
MoneyCollect receives a payment confirmation and notifies the partner/merchant about the payment status.
The merchant is notified of the payment status and can ship the goods.

how it works
On the merchant's checkout page, the consumer selects PIX as their preferred payment method.

After scanning the QR Code (or adding the EMV code) with their PIX mobile application (it can be a bank or wallet app), the customer receives the payment data to be reviewed.
The consumer confirms the payment.
MoneyCollect receives payment confirmation and creates a receipt on its platform.
The PSP confirms the payment confirmation on the MoneyCollect platform.
