Multibanco and MB Way are the dominant payment methods in Portugal, deeply embedded in how consumers there pay for goods and services online and in-store. By adding native support for both, SETTLIXX enables its merchant partners to offer Portuguese customers a checkout experience that feels familiar, trusted, and frictionless.
“Portugal is the first milestone on our local payments roadmap, but it won’t be the last,” said SETTLIXX Head of Sales and Business Development Alex Serzhanovich. “Our priority is to make sure our clients can meet their customers wherever they are — on their terms, in their preferred payment method. Local market coverage is central to that.”
The Portugal launch sits alongside SETTLIXX’s existing suite of payment solutions, which includes:
- Card payments — Visa and Mastercard acceptance across Europe, Australia, and Canada
- Apple Pay & Google Pay — digital wallet support for seamless mobile and web checkout
- Open Banking — direct account-to-account payments, fully compliant with PSD2
The addition of Multibanco and MB Way reinforces SETTLIXX’s commitment to giving merchants genuine local reach — not just broad geographic coverage, but the specific payment methods that drive conversion in each market.
SETTLIXX’s expansion reflects a clear philosophy: merchants should never have to compromise on payment experience because of where their customers are located. As the company continues to add local payment methods across new markets, the goal remains consistent — best-in-class service levels at highly competitive rates.
