Innovation is a key component of any successful business and Betcris is a regional leader in this area

The leading sports gambling and gaming operator in Latin America continues to innovate both on the front end and the back end, always looking to ensure its platforms are optimized for the best customer experience. For its users in Brazil, Betcris has just updated its payment options to include an alternative that will make deposits much easier.

Betcris has activated a new bank deposits solution for the Brazilian called Pix. It is a service provided by the Central Bank of Brazil that allows payments to be made 24 hours a day, seven days a week, in seconds, through mobile applications, online banking and ATMs. Betcris users can find Pix listed in the Online Cashier, under the ‘Bank Transfers’ option.

There are some limits associated with Pix, as with virtually all payment options. The minimum amount per transaction is USD$3 and the maximum amount is USD $15,000. Additionally, the maximum amount per month is USD $50,000. Pix is designed to offer greater access to digital payments for Brazil’s residents, while providing a more secure payment option at the same time.

Pix isn’t just a better solution for users, as it typically has a lower acceptance cost for merchants, as well. This will allow Betcris to lower its expenses, which will give the operator more flexibility to enhance its options and solutions for its users. Pix is available across Brazil and can be utilized by anyone, making it an alternative that can easily be integrated to any payments solutions system.

According to the Central Bank of Brazil, Pix transactions are more reliable and secure. It explains, ‘Pix will promptly notify the end users (both payer and payee) of the transaction’s conclusion. With the payment confirmation, the payer has certainty that the payment was received and funds are available for the beneficiary. It must be emphasized that the Pix alias is only used to facilitate initiating a Pix transaction and, therefore, to pay with Pix it is not necessary to register a Pix alias.’

Betcris, now serving users in countries all across Latin America, constantly explores ways to become a more efficient gaming platform. It has pioneered much of the region’s sports gambling development and continues to innovate while focusing on the creation of a well-regulated, transparent and reliable industry. With Latin American sports gambling growth predicted to outpace that of other regions, concentrating on these aspects will ensure a robust and mature industry for all of Latin America.
