Integrate Argentine Payment Methods

Argentina, like many emerging markets has a low credit card penetration rate and is home to many unbanked users who do not have access to banking services. The most popular Argentine payment methods for online purchases are prepaid cards and direct carrier billing (mobile payments through SMS). Prepaid cash cards are particularly popular due to digital security concerns within the country.

In Argentina, cash payment options like PagoFacil and RapiPago are important online payment methods. The shopper orders online and pays with cash in specific stores and locations. These cash options are followed by debit and credit cards from MasterCard and VISA.
