Latin America – A booming market plagued by payment frauds
Latin America stands out in the global digital commerce arena, with the second-highest rise in digital buyers. According to Beyond Borders 2022/2023, the region’s digital sales are set to grow by 26% CAGR until 2025.
However, payment fraud poses a significant challenge. Ravelin’s experts state that the region experiences a 20% revenue loss due to fraud, with one in five e-commerce transactions being rejected due to fraud – double the global average.
These alarming figures lead Forbes Business Intelligence (cited by paymentscardsandmobile.com) to anticipate a fourfold surge in Latin America’s e-commerce fraud prevention market, projecting a substantial growth to $2.9 billion from 2020 to 2028.
To tackle these issues, leading global brands are relying on EBANX’s payment platform to boost sales securely. Covering pay-ins and payouts (incoming and outgoing transactions), your business can fully leverage Latin America’s thriving digital commerce environment while ensuring payment fraud protection through EBANX Anti Fraud.
Moreover, by teaming up with a leading local payments partner like EBANX, you’ll experience fewer false positives, enabling issuing banks and acquirers to access more transaction information, ensuring a smoother process for all.
