Money20/20 Las Vegas is where fintech innovation takes center stage, and this year Bamboo made a strong impression.

A Stand that Set the Stage for Connections

Our stand at Money20/20 was more than just a space; it was a hub of activity and collaboration.

Our COO on the Future of Cross-Border Payments

A standout moment was Bamboo COO María José Cabrera’s participation in a thought-provoking panel on cross-border payments in Latin America. Her insights underscored Bamboo’s expertise in navigating the unique challenges and opportunities of this dynamic region.

Key takeaways from her talk:

  • 🌎 Regional Diversity Demands Adaptability: Latin America’s regulatory, economic, and payment landscapes are highly diverse. María José highlighted Bamboo’s localized approach, enabling businesses to adapt seamlessly to each country’s unique environment.
    🚀 Growth Powered by Local Solutions: With alternative payments driving 40% of LatAm’s digital commerce, Bamboo’s integration of popular methods like e-wallets and QR codes ensures merchants meet customer needs and unlock new opportunities.
    ✅ Compliance as an Opportunity: The complexity of LatAm’s regulations can be daunting, but María José emphasized how Bamboo’s Malta license bridges LatAm with Europe, ensuring secure and compliant cross-border transactions.
    💸 Financial Inclusion at the Forefront: With nearly half of LatAm’s population unbanked, Bamboo is focused on bridging the gap through personalized, accessible, and inclusive solutions.

This session demonstrated how Bamboo is not just meeting the region’s payment challenges but redefining them as opportunities for innovation and growth.
