I might be in a bit of a bubble here (Porto Alegre), but all my friends except for one who's a tinfoil-on-head privacy nut use PicPay. Even more hipster-y restaurants/bars are starting to accept payment over it.

Anecdotal evidence, I know, but lacking proper studies...

Here in Florianópolis PicPay is absolutely unheard of. I know it by name but have never used or heard about anyone using it.
In São Paulo it seems PicPay is more popular with younger people, as you can open an account being 16 or older. Nubank you have to be at least 18, probably as it mainly is a credit card.

I don’t have an account, nor have seen somebody using it, though. I’m totally outside their target group.
