iGaming stance
The official source describes the product and its use case. This is not an independently measured market-share or performance ranking.
Worth knowing: General regional coverage is not gambling approval; request written operator and country acceptance.
Primary-source review: 5 October 2026. This is documentary research, not live payment testing. Provider claims are identified separately from documented terms.
The developer hub lists LATAM and Africa pay-ins, payouts and transaction-status webhooks through one API. Its 300+ methods cover different regional channels, not 300 methods available to each merchant. Official source.
The settlement offer distinguishes local and hard currencies and can consolidate flows from other local partners. Scheduling and currency eligibility are tailored to the merchant's vertical and jurisdiction. Official source.
The platform's examples include Brazilian Pix, Nigerian bank transfers, Chilean cards and Mexican cash. Each payment direction and country requires its own method/industry matrix; cross-border reach is not blanket gambling approval.
Primary evidence for the industry use case or acceptance policy. Regional tags are evaluation coverage, not blanket gambling approval.

Regulatory assessment · 21 October 2026
5.5/10: a current authorisation for the contracting entity was not independently confirmed in the published evidence. The criterion is capped at 5.5 under the unverified-authorisation rubric. This is an evidence limitation, not a finding that the company is unlicensed or unlawful. For schemes and technical platforms, check the actual regulated PSP or acquirer rather than assuming the platform holds its authorisation.
Compliance criterion revised from 7.5 to 5.5 after the evidence review. Other criterion inputs were not changed.

LATAM, Africa. Coverage is where the rails reach — confirm acceptance for your specific licence separately, because the two are not the same thing.
We have no public rate card for PayRetailers. No merchant-specific public figure verified in this research pass; request written terms. Ask for cost per successfully funded account under your own volume and market split rather than a headline rate.
General regional coverage is not gambling approval; request written operator and country acceptance.
