Elo is a prominent Brazilian payment brand and card network, rapidly gaining traction in the global e-commerce landscape. It offers a comprehensive suite of payment solutions for both online and offline transactions, providing a convenient and secure alternative to other major payment processors. Understanding Elo's functionalities is crucial for businesses looking to expand their reach into Brazilian and increasingly, international markets. This article delves into the intricacies of Elo, examining its features, security, and integration capabilities.
For Merchants: Merchants integrate Elo's payment gateway into their e-commerce platform.

Elo verifies the customer's payment information, and if approved, the funds are transferred to the merchant's account after a specified settlement period.
