Cross-Border Subscriptions That Don’t Break: A Practical Guide for LatAm ↔ U.S.

Most subscription failures in Latin America happen because teams copy a U.S. card flow into markets that run on different rails, responses, and rules. The fix is a simple operating model: treat each country as “first-class,” run them through a single, predictable stack, blend cards with local rails (PIX/SPEI/PSE/wallets), manage FX and treasury deliberately, and … Read more
