Fintech Unicorn dLocal Partners With Embedded Lending Platform Dinie to Bring Pay Later to Brazilian Smes

Paylater option acts as small business lending solution, allowing SMEs to budget and securely pay for purchases

dLocal, the leading cross-border payment platform connecting global merchants to emerging markets, announced a new partnership deal with Dinie to allow global merchants to offer installment payments to their customers in Brazil as a form of small business lending. The partnership between dLocal and Dinie will give SME customers a wider choice of payment options and more purchasing power at the checkout, which in turn, increases the conversion rate and basket sizes for merchants.

The Dinie Paylater solution (Dinie Pay) enables merchants to g******* up-front and in full, while their customers benefit from paying in three-to-nine month installments. The merchant has no credit risk exposure, and SME customers are not required to have a credit card or use Boleto to pay, but can use their Dinie credit account while benefiting from the installment plan.

According to dLocal data, 54% of eCommerce spend in 2020 in Brazil was made accessing an installment plan offered by merchants. With the addition of this “Buy Now, Pay Later” solution (BNPL), online sellers can expect increased conversion rates, as research shows Brazilians often prefer installment payments when it comes to eCommerce.

Through the new partnership, Dinie Pay will be integrated within the dLocal payments platform, which streamlines the merchant onboarding process. Essentially, this means dLocal will enable merchants to use Dinie Pay hassle free, and with no further integration needed. Once a purchase is confirmed at the merchant’s checkout, the Dinie Pay option is presented and the SME customers can choose to split the payment into up to nine monthly installments.

We enable global merchants to unlock new revenues and g******* upfront, frictionless and risk free.”
