When it comes to paying for web hosting, one size does not fit all—especially in Latin America. While credit cards and PayPal may dominate in some parts of the world, Latin America relies on a diverse range of local payment methods to get online.
At Hosteons, we’re proud to support customers across LATAM with localized, frictionless payment options—including OXXO (Mexico), Pix (Brazil), Baloto & Efecty (Colombia), PSE (Colombia), and more.
Let’s dive into how Latin America pays for hosting—and why supporting local payment preferences is essential for truly global web services.
💳 Why Global Gateways Don’t Work for Everyone
In many Latin American countries:
- 🔒 Credit card ownership is limited
- 🧱 International gateways often fail or block transactions
- 💵 Many users are unbanked or prefer cash payments
- 📱 Mobile and real-time payments are now dominating
That’s why local payment rails like Pix and OXXO are not optional—they’re essential.
🇲🇽 OXXO – Cash-First Convenience in Mexico
OXXO is one of Mexico’s most widely used in-store payment options. Users can:
- Order hosting online
- Generate a barcode voucher
- Pay in cash at any of the 20,000+ OXXO stores
- Get their hosting service activated after confirmation
💡 Perfect for students, freelancers, and small business owners without cards.
🇧🇷 Pix – Brazil’s Instant Payment Powerhouse
Pix is Brazil’s national real-time payment system backed by the Central Bank.
Benefits include:
- 🕒 24/7 instant bank transfers
- ✅ No card needed
- 🔒 Secure and trusted nationwide
- 📱 Works via mobile apps, QR codes, and CPF/CNPJ
At Hosteons, Pix is one of the fastest-growing payment methods among our Brazilian users.
🇨🇴 Baloto & Efecty – Colombia’s Cash & Paypoint Networks
Baloto and Efecty are staples in Colombia’s offline payment landscape.
Users simply:
- Generate a payment reference
- Walk into a nearby store
- Pay in cash
- Hosting services are activated after confirmation
💡 Baloto is often used via lottery kiosks, while Efecty has 9,000+ locations nationwide.
🇨🇴 PSE – Colombia’s Trusted Bank Gateway
For users who prefer bank transfers over cash, PSE offers a seamless online experience.
- Connects directly to major Colombian banks
- No need for international cards
- Fast, secure, and mobile-friendly
We’ve seen rising demand for PSE due to its convenience and trust factor.

Final Thoughts
Latin America’s digital economy is growing fast—but it’s not following the same rules.
