Pix

Brazilian instant payment system, with confirmation in seconds, available every day and with no chargeback risk.

Pix transfers money between accounts in seconds, at any time. At checkout, the buyer scans a QR code or copies a code, pays through their bank's app, and confirmation comes back almost immediately, which allows the product to be released right away.

For the seller, the strong point is risk: Pix has no chargeback. Once paid, the amount can't be pulled back through a card dispute.

The limit is geographic. Pix only exists in Brazil, so it solves the domestic operation and doesn't replace a card for international sales.

Documentation exists so a seller never learns a rule on the day it costs them. Worth reading before you need it.
