Latin America's ecommerce market is booming, presenting significant opportunities for businesses looking to expand. However, navigating this dynamic landscape requires a deep understanding of local market nuances, consumer preferences, and evolving regulations.

Therese Hudak, VP at PPRO, explores key trends shaping the LATAM payments ecosystem, including the rise of real-time payments, the increasing influence of fintechs, and the growing adoption of digital wallets. We delve into the challenges merchants face when entering the LATAM market, such as varying consumer preferences across countries, the complexity of the regulatory environment, and the need to adapt to local payment methods.

Furthermore, the article provides valuable insights into developing a successful payment strategy for LATAM. We discuss the importance of localisation, the benefits of partnering with local payment providers, and the critical role of technology in enhancing the customer experience.
