If you accept payments while selling goods and services, Apple Pay can help you speed up the payment process while securely accepting payments. Since there is no need to stick a card into a machine, users won't have to fumble looking for a card when they can put their whole wallet on Apple Pay and check out easily.

dLocal does a very good job of explaining why payments fail when they occur, and makes it clear what happened. I work with Onesource too, and it doesn't explain this very well. There is a specific payment in Brazil called PIX, as if it were a digital wallet that makes payments immediately. This payment is processed by Demerge, but it is not possible to find this type of payment in platform. So sometimes the client makes the payment in this way to another account by mistake, and we are unable to locate it on our part.

Pros
Apple
  • The double click which launches it couldn't be easier; you don't even have to open your phone and find the app.
  • It's pretty much fool proof from there, as just holding your phone near the reader is sufficient for success.
  • Haptic feedback ensures that I know the payment registered.
  • I have full faith and confidence that the transaction was executed securely.

Cons
Apple
  • At times, my Apple Pay will pop up unintentionally. Perhaps there can be more safeguards around that.
  • Apple Pay is not super great if I need to make a return. For any return, I've found that paper receipts are superior.
  • Apple Pay sometimes requires very specific positioning when scanning the phone, which is frustrating.

The dLocal platform is very easy to use, and has a well thought out user experience. It's intuitive for you to find what you want, with the different filters that the site offers. As well as information that returns about a specific payment, such as all customer-related content, which is used to find Spotify accounts

When I had my Android/Samsung phone, I tried Samsung's version of Apple Pay and it was terrible. It was very glitchy, and sometimes I would get a notification that I paid for something when I wasn't even in a checkout screen, like I was just browsing the internet or something and I'd get a notification! It was alarming and I quickly uninstalled the app and never used it again.

dLocal is the most complete among the platforms I use in my daily life, in relation to searching for payments. both in layout, UX, optimization, among other things. In addition to being possible to locate several different types of payments from different countries. As a comparison, Onesource works mostly only for payments in Latin America

  • dLocal helps businesses accept payments in new markets, which helps attract more customers and increases sales. ROI can be positive with customer growth and geographic diversification.
  • dLocal can reduce payment costs by uniting and simplifying international and local payments on one platform, which can help you make better money
  • dLocal can require a lot of investment, training and changes to internal processes. If adaptation is not efficient or emerging markets do not perform as expected, it may delay returns or result in losses.
