Coinbase said it has integrated Pix, the Brazilian government’s payment system, and began allowing the purchase of cryptocurrencies with the Brazilian real.
The partnership with Pix, which has more than 140 million users, was made possible through a partnership with Ebanx, an end-to-end payment processor in Brazil.
In addition to purchasing in local currency, customers can also withdraw Brazilian reals. Additionally, Coinbase says its app is fully available in Portuguese and offers 24-hour support.
