Bybit partners with Manteca to scale its offering in Argentina and Brazil

Dubai, UAE, July 18th, 2025, Chainwire

With the regional startup’s technology, the crypto giant doubles down on Latin America and launches QR and PIX payments through Bybit Pay

Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, and Manteca, a leading financial infrastructure platform for Latin America, announced the launch of a new instant payments service in Argentina and Brazil. The solution will allow Bybit users to make payments via interoperable QR codes in Argentina, enabled by the Central Bank of Argentina’s Transferencias 3.0 system, and through PIX in Brazil, using technology provided by Manteca.

Thanks to this integration, Bybit Pay users will be able to pay at any store that accepts QR in Argentina or PIX in Brazil, seamlessly using their crypto balance. The conversion to local currency is automatic and happens in real time, enabling fast payments without intermediaries or manual withdrawals. Additionally, Argentina becomes the second market in the world, following the success in Brazil, to offer Bybit’s full product suite, including both its card and integrated local payments.

Patricio Mesri, Country Manager for Spanish-speaking Latin America at Bybit, said: “This launch is a direct response to our users’ need to use crypto practically in their daily lives. Thanks to this integration with Manteca’s infrastructure, we can now offer a much more complete experience: not just investing or saving in crypto, but also paying in real life quickly, simply and securely. It’s a key step in building crypto services that are useful, accessible, and tailored to the local market.”

Federico Goldberg, CEO of Manteca, added: “The fact that a company like Bybit chose us for this integration is clear proof that we can build world-class technology in the region. At Manteca, we’re building the infrastructure that simplifies crypto payments, and what we’re doing with Bybit shows how we can bring that technology to real-world scale, directly impacting thousands of users.”

The new service is now available to all Bybit users in Argentina and Brazil and marks a new step toward real integration between the crypto ecosystem and traditional payment systems in the region.
