Global payments technology firm EBANX will open its new Asia-Pacific (APAC) headquarters in Singapore on 24 March.

The facility will act as a regulatory and product development centre for the company’s global e-commerce operations.

The Brazil-founded enterprise currently processes payments for over 100 APAC merchants. It has accounted for 36% of its Total Payment Volume (TPV) in 2025.

EBANX projects a 30% TPV growth within the region in 2026, driven by business and consumer activity across emerging markets.

EBANX CEO and Co-Founder João Del Valle noted the ongoing trend of Asian businesses entering markets in Africa and Latin America.

“In the current global landscape, companies are searching for diversified growth opportunities, strengthening South-South ties and building resilient global partnerships,” Del Valle stated.

The Singapore office follows the firm’s acquisition of a Major Payment Institution licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore in 2025.

Chief Product Officer Eduardo de Abreu, who recently relocated to Singapore as regional CEO, will lead the new headquarters alongside 25 professionals spanning engineering, compliance, and treasury.

Abreu explained that the new base will anchor the firm’s global product strategy and facilitate payment solutions for international merchants.

Furthermore, the new Singapore hub is designed to support businesses from Europe and North America. Its primary goal is to help them tap into rapidly expanding markets like India and the Philippines.
