When I joined dLocal as Sales Strategy Manager, my goal was to seamlessly integrate and transition Primeiro Pay’s merchants into dLocal’s technology, API and ecosystem. I worked closely with the Sales, Legal, Operations, Tax, and Product teams to ensure that the move from Primeiro Pay to dLocal went as smoothly as possible. Later, I collaborated with Account Management to ensure that the move remained successful.

Now, at PayRetailers, my focus is on managing strategic partnerships with various entities, especially in the sports betting and gambling verticals, to level up payment processing capabilities while ensuring that all cross-border payment activities comply with both local and international financial and governmental regulations.

My roles here are fairly diversified. I don’t stick with one item. I dive into completing thorough due diligence on possible partners, determining their competencies, and developing ways to address issues associated with high-risk transactions. I’m looking for partners who share our company’s goals and are capable of handling large numbers of transactions. Staying on top of regulations and compliance in the payment processing industry, especially the high-risk side, is always on my radar.

Spotting opportunities for tech improvements to increase efficiency and security in transaction processing is another ball game I’m into. Oh, and let’s not forget developing contingency plans and strategies for handling potential crises or disruptions in high-risk transaction processing – that’s part of the game too.
