dLocal has come on board as an associate sponsor for the Future of Commerce – a hybrid conference that will be hosted by TechCabal in September 2022.
Founded in 2016, dLocal’s mission is to enable global merchants to connect seamlessly with billions of emerging market users. The company focuses on making the complex simple, redefining the online payments experience in emerging markets. Through one account (one API, one platform, one contract), global companies can safely accept payments, send payouts, settle funds globally, and issue white-label prepaid virtual and physical debit cards in local currencies.
This happens seamlessly without the need to manage separate pay-in and payout processors, set up numerous local entities, and integrate multiple acquirers and payment methods in each market. dLocal reaches over 2 billion consumers in emerging markets by accepting over 700 local payment methods in over 37 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.
Representing dLocal at the conference is Jacobo Singer, the company’s president.
As president, Jacobo leads a broad range of initiatives and oversees dLocal’s IT and business systems. He is responsible for keeping dLocal’s rigorous expansion efforts on track. Singer was previously dLocal’s CTO and has designed and built the company’s payments platform from the ground up. Prior to dLocal, he led product and engineering teams at AstroPay where he gained deep technology and project management expertise. He holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Information Technology from Universidad ORT Uruguay.
He will be speaking alongside other industry experts on a panel titled – Payments: The big connector. Speakers will talk about how payment solutions are evolving on the continent to match the needs of consumers, stakeholders also share what they’re doing differently, and new problems they’re solving.
Other industry experts who will speak on this panel are Akshay Grover (Group CEO, Cellulant) and Michael Bouwer (Group Product Manager, Yoco).
Moses Sule, Head of Growth–Africa at dLocal also spoke about the organization’s commitment, saying: “We’re very excited to sponsor this conference and see it as a vantage point for our entry into and positioning on the continent.”
The Future of Commerce will also explore all the other innovative ways in which startups and large organizations are catering to the needs of the informal sector, particularly in areas like the digitization of informal trade, mobile money, last-mile delivery, agent networks, social commerce and buy-now-pay-later (BNPL)
All interested attendees are welcome to join online by registering here. There will also be a small physical audience but attendance will be strictly by invitation.
