About Pix
In Brazil, QR codes are paid through Pix, operated by Banco Central do Brasil. Pix is Brazil's instant payment system and the most common way to pay a QR code in the country.
You will see Pix codes at beach kiosks, padarias, street markets, Ubers and online stores. With QRiks every one of them can be paid with USDT, and the merchant receives Brazilian reais as usual.
Can I pay Pix QR codes without a Brazilian bank account?
Yes. With QRiks you scan the Pix code and pay with USDT. A vetted payer in Brazil pays the merchant from their own Brazilian account, so you don't need a local bank account, card or phone number.
What does the merchant in Brazil receive?
The merchant receives Brazilian reais (BRL) through Pix, exactly like a payment from a local customer. They don't need to know about QRiks or accept crypto.
What do I pay with?
USDT on Polygon from your QRiks wallet. The quote shows the exchange rate, our fee and the network cost before you confirm.
Who runs Pix?
Pix is operated by Banco Central do Brasil.
What if the payment doesn't go through?
Your USDT stays in escrow until an independent validator in Brazil confirms that the merchant was paid. If the merchant wasn't paid, your USDT is returned.
Where can I pay with Pix in Brazil?
Anywhere a Pix QR code is displayed: beach kiosks, padarias, street markets, Ubers and online stores.
