Dlocal Limited
dLocal does a very good job of explaining why payments fail when they occur, and makes it clear what happened. I work with Onesource too, and it doesn't explain this very well. There is a specific payment in Brazil called PIX, as if it were a digital wallet that makes payments immediately. This payment is processed by Demerge, but it is not possible to find this type of payment in platform. So sometimes the client makes the payment in this way to another account by mistake, and we are unable to locate it on our part.

Flywire
Many of our international students studying at our institution are financially supported by their parents in their homeland. In other words, they rely on their families for payment of their class fees. So, Flywire makes international payments convenient by making payment by visiting our college website and finding the Flywire payment option. Some prefer this method over credit card payments or by wiring money to the student's bank account in the U.S., which creates a whole additional step in making payments.

Flywire
  • Delay time could be shortened between the actual time of payment and the confirmation of payment.
  • It could allow for the payer to pay more than the outstanding balance without rejecting additional amounts of money.
  • Refund information by way of Flywire is a little vague.

Usability
Dlocal Limited
The dLocal platform is very easy to use, and has a well thought out user experience. It's intuitive for you to find what you want, with the different filters that the site offers. As well as information that returns about a specific payment, such as all customer-related content, which is used to find Spotify accounts

dLocal is the most complete among the platforms I use in my daily life, in relation to searching for payments. both in layout, UX, optimization, among other things. In addition to being possible to locate several different types of payments from different countries. As a comparison, Onesource works mostly only for payments in Latin America

Return on Investment
Dlocal Limited
  • dLocal helps businesses accept payments in new markets, which helps attract more customers and increases sales. ROI can be positive with customer growth and geographic diversification.
  • dLocal can reduce payment costs by uniting and simplifying international and local payments on one platform, which can help you make better money
  • dLocal can require a lot of investment, training and changes to internal processes. If adaptation is not efficient or emerging markets do not perform as expected, it may delay returns or result in losses.
