Bitget Wallet Integrates PIX To Enable Instant Crypto Payments In Brazil


In Brief
Bitget Wallet has integrated Brazil’s PIX system, enabling users to make instant cryptocurrency payments in USDT and USDC across major blockchains while merchants receive funds in reais.

Bitget Wallet, a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet, announced that it has integrated Brazil’s instant payment system, PIX, through a partnership with local licensee Aeon, allowing users to make payments directly with self-custodied cryptocurrency by scanning any PIX QR code. This functionality supports spending USDT and USDC across major blockchains, including BNB, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Ton, and Base, while merchants continue to receive payments in Brazilian reais without disruption.
Launched by the Central Bank of Brazil in 2020, PIX has become the country’s primary retail payment method, widely adopted by over 150 million people and millions of businesses. In 2024 alone, the system processed 64 billion transactions totaling $4.6 trillion, representing a 53% year-over-year increase and 80% more than the combined volume of credit and debit card payments. With this integration, Bitget Wallet users can pay with cryptocurrency at restaurants, stores, and through peer-to-peer transfers instantly, without requiring a bank account or intermediary. Transactions are settled within seconds and are available 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
“The integration of PIX marks a milestone for crypto adoption in Brazil,” said Jamie Elkaleh, CMO of Bitget Wallet, in a written statement. “Our vision is to give users the freedom to pay with crypto anywhere, anytime, without barriers. By connecting to PIX, we are bridging global digital assets with Brazil’s vibrant real-time payment infrastructure, making everyday crypto use as seamless as possible,” he added.
The PIX integration extends Bitget Wallet’s broader efforts to enable real-world cryptocurrency payments across Brazil and Latin America. In August, the platform launched a USD-based, zero-fee cryptocurrency card that allows users to spend stablecoins at over 150 million Mastercard-enabled merchants worldwide. Combined with built-in onramp and offramp services that allow users to buy and sell cryptocurrencies directly within the wallet, Bitget Wallet is positioning itself as a comprehensive self-custodial solution for digital asset management and everyday transactions. The wallet also supports QR-based payments globally through Solana Pay and in Southeast Asia via national QR code systems, reflecting its goal of broadening crypto acceptance.
