PagSeguro

In January of the following year, UOL acquired BrPay, a Brazilian electronic payment company that was incorporated into PagSeguro 6 months later.

[6][7] In November 2008, PagSeguro was elected the best website of the year in the Electronic Commerce category by Info Exame readers.

[11] In 2012, it partnered with Nokia to process payments via Near Field Communication (NFC), a technology that enables the safe data transmission by approaching two cell phones.

[15] PagSeguro is an e-commerce company that intermediates payment between sellers and buyers by offering a billing option via email for traders who do not have a site or a well-structured e-commerce and it has agreements with several banking institutions so that sellers can offer buyers different payment methods.

The tool was released in VTEX Day, the largest multi-channel retail event in Latin America, in which PagSeguro was also the master sponsor.

[28][29][30] At the end of that year, it launched Moderninha, a machine for card operations, which does not request a cell phone and comes with a chip and an internet data plan included.
