Brazil‘s Central Bank’s instant payment system, PIX, has surpassed the use of other means of payment such as TEDs (a type of bank transfer in Brazil, which is faster because it is done during business hours, but more expensive) and DOCs (a banking transfer that works in business days, from one day to another) combined.

PIX already has more than364 million registered keys (each user can have up to three PIX registration keys). This tremendous success made the Brazilian Central Bank (BACEN) launch other features, such as PIX Saque (a cash withdrawal mode through PIX), PIX Troco (to enable changes in cash when someone makes a purchase).

The numbers exceeded expectations

The Central Bank already imagined that the instant payment would have good results, but this unstopping growth of PIX and the adhesion of Brazilians to the new instant payment system positively surprised the Central Bank and the industry players.
