Starspay transforms iGaming transactions with Bitso's new Pix platform

Starspay, a fintech specializing in payment intermediation for foreign companies licensed in the iGaming sector, stands out by adopting Bitso's new Pix payment solution. This advancement represents a significant evolution for the betting market, known for its dynamics and need for fast and efficient transactions.

Bitso, a leading company in crypto-based financial services, and which was a sponsor of São Paulo FC from 2022 to 2024, recently launched its Pix area in Brazil, offering customers a full range of financial operations.

With the support of Bitso Business, Starspay is able to provide unprecedented agility in financial transactions for regulated iGaming companies in several countries. The integration with the Bitso platform not only optimizes the flow of crypto-asset transactions, but also allows Starspay to offer a payment experience that meets the speed required by the sector.

Rodrigo Bernardino, Business Development at Starspay, highlights the importance of this solution: "The iGaming market is highly dynamic and the flow of Pix transactions on these sites is very fast. Therefore, we needed an agile solution that would allow us to make the amounts available to our customers immediately."

"With the support of Bitso Business, we were able to have the speed we needed and with always-available service. And this reflects 100% in the satisfaction of our customers,
" he says.

The integration with Bitso represents a milestone for Starspay and the iGaming market as a whole. Bernardino adds: "We are very happy to launch this, as we believe it represents a watershed in the financial market. We can say that it is the evolution of a traditional global account to a universal account, combining the benefits of a digital bank, an international account and integration with cryptocurrencies."

Thales Freitas, CEO of Bitso Brazil and Global Director of Bitso Business, comments: "The new service allows our users to make transactions to their current account or to third parties, and opens up a new market for corporate clients who want to optimize their operations in Brazil."

Pix, the most widely used payment and transfer system in Brazil, is now available through Bitso, the first exchange to obtain a license to operate as a Payment Institution and approval to participate in Pix. The new modality is already available, offering instant pay-in and payout services, in full compliance with the regulations of the Central Bank of Brazil.

To take advantage of the new Pix features, users must update the Bitso app version and create a Pix key. The platform ensures the protection of transactions and the privacy of user data, consolidating Bitso as a reference in the financial and cryptoasset sector.
