**CURITIBA, BRAZIL & NEW YORK, July 1, 2019 –** [EBANX](https://business.ebanx.com/en/), a global fintech company offering full-service payment solutions from Latin America to global digital commerce merchants, today announced several new key hires across partnerships, business development, customer service and product innovation.

“We’re seeing large demand in Latin America for international brands, including Airbnb, AliExpress, Spotify and Uber, among others,” said Nilsmo. “I am confident our team and new locations around the world will strengthen our ties with international merchants and help them access and continue to grow in the Latin American market.”

Back home in Latin America, EBANX has also welcomed Customer Services Senior Manager,[Raphaella Aurnheimer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/raphaellaaurnheimer/), and B2B Product Director, [Erika Daguani](https://www.linkedin.com/in/erika-daguani-6a209615/).

Daguani's hire will intensify the innovation in product development for merchants.

Over the last few years EBANX has seen significant growth, including an increase in the number of end users, with more than 50 million Latin Americans purchasing from its merchants, and an increase of its merchant base by an average of 74% growth year over year since 2016. Additionally, the company has seen a 25% increase in Total Processed Volume (TPV) from 2017 to 2018  ($1.2 billion USD in 2017 vs. $1.5 billion in 2018) and an expected increase of 33% for 2019, reaching $2 billion.

We’re committed to providing unparalleled services to our clients while giving Latin Americans access to global brands and services.”
