Payments that power every shared ride and food order
In the world’s fastest-growing cities, mobility never pauses. Riders pay with whatever’s native to their market—Pix, mobile money, eWallets, cash. Couriers expect to be paid when a delivery ends. Restaurants and drivers rely on payouts to keep their day moving. When your payment infrastructure adapts to these rhythms, every trip and every order becomes a smoother part of the city’s flow.
The challenge
The pressure points behind every tap
Emerging markets bring incredible momentum and their own kind of complexity. Payments become a defining part of the experience for riders, customers, drivers, couriers, and restaurants. Common friction points include:
- Surge moments that strain payment performance (commute hours, dinner rush)
- Small, high-frequency transactions spread across multiple payment methods and currencies
- Cash-heavy or mobile-money-first user bases, depending on the city
- Instant payout expectations for drivers, couriers, and restaurants
- Local rails that vary widely in reliability and adoption
- Refund pressure when trips cancel, or orders change
- FX exposure when settling cross-border
- Fraud models that change quickly, especially in dense urban markets
