Good riddance!! In Brazil we've been using the Pix payment system account to account for well over 2 years! India has a similar system in place

I believe that can be compared to BLIK in Poland, which offers that but already has very wide adoption locally. To the point that you can use it for phone to phone transfers, online payments and even paying directly in card terminals for cashless payments on every store (terminals are very widely adopted here) or ATM withdrawals.

I guess Visa could try to be the first one to offer similar but truly worldwide.

India’s NPCI helped Brazil build Pix.
