Who Pagsmile Is
Pagsmile is an online payments company from Brazil, set up in 2012, with a clear focus on fast, secure and simple payment flows. It has worked closely with the iGaming industry from the start, building payment services around the needs of online casinos and their players, and its home ground is Latin America.
Local-currency support, including the Brazilian Real (BRL), removes much of the friction from cross-border payments and helps casinos grow in the region. Over time the company has also moved into Asia, the Middle East and Africa, and it now offers more than 200 payment channels with unified reconciliation and settlement in local currencies.
Its product range covers the Pagsmile wallet, payout processing, the TransferSmile cross-border remittance system and more. Pagsmile is also known for its security, which combines advanced encryption with anti-fraud controls.
