dLocal partners with GOL Linhas Aéreas to enhance digital payments in Latin America
dLocal, the leading cross-border payment platform specializing in high-growth markets, is excited to announce a strategic partnership with GOL Linhas Aéreas (GOL), the largest airline in Brazil. This collaboration is designed to enhance the digital payment experience for customers across Latin America, with a focus on Colombia and Uruguay.
Through this partnership, GOL and dLocal will streamline the payment process for customers by enabling seamless transactions using local cards in Colombia and Uruguay. The agreement emphasizes improving payment processes in these markets by leveraging local acquiring to create a more accessible and user-friendly payment ecosystem. The payment platform’s expertise in navigating the complexities of Latin American markets is a key component of this collaboration. Their unique “One dLocal” approach simplifies the global payment landscape for enterprise merchants by offering one direct API, one platform, and a single contract.
“The payment platform’s effectiveness in managing the intricacies of international payments was a key factor in our decision. We need our processor to adapt to changing regulations and ensure fewer canceled payments, and that’s exactly what dLocal does,” says Diogo Lopes, Director of Payment Methods at GOL. “By leveraging dLocal’s capabilities, GOL will be able to elevate its digital payment infrastructure, offering customers a more convenient, dependable, and accessible payment experience.”
“The partnership with GOL exemplifies our commitment to providing innovative payment solutions that cater to the unique needs of the travel industry in emerging markets. We are excited to work with GOL and enhance the digital payment experience for their customers in Colombia and Uruguay,” said Justo Benetti, SVP Head of Americas at dLocal.
The payment platform powers local payments in high-growth markets, connecting global enterprise merchants with billions of high-growth market consumers across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Through the “One dLocal” concept—one direct API, one platform, and one contract—global companies can accept payments, send payouts, and settle funds globally without the need to manage separate pay-in and payout processors, set up numerous local entities, or integrate multiple acquirers and payment methods in each market.
