With over 215 million people, Brazil is the largest eCommerce market in Latin America. The country primarily uses the Brazilian Real (BRL) and speaks Portuguese. Shopify merchants who tap into Brazil's market can access millions of potential customers—but only if they offer the right payment options.

Local platforms such as Boleto Bancário, MercadoPago, and PicPay help businesses increase their conversion rates and expand their reach within the country.
