2025 has been a defining year for Bamboo: one of scale, learning and connection. What began as a regional mission to simplify payments across Latin America has evolved into a global journey to make cross-border payments simple and instant for businesses and consumers worldwide.
Scaling with purpose
This year, we achieved 3.5× growth in total payment volume processed, while maintaining 99.99% uptime. These milestones reflect not only the robustness of our technology but also the trust placed in Bamboo by global merchants who rely on us for their operations every day.
Expanding our global footprint
Bamboo’s reach now extends across 18 live markets, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Paraguay, Norway, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Israel, Turkey and Egypt.
Each new market brings us closer to our mission of connecting businesses and consumers through local payment methods enabling truly borderless commerce.
Leadership perspective
“We keep growing, and this is just another step on our journey. At Bamboo we already have a clear roadmap of potential markets to integrate, driven by merchant demand and strategic opportunities. We will continue expanding to give global merchants the local payment access they need, today and tomorrow.” — Marcelo Perez, CEO at Bamboo.
Looking ahead, our 2026 roadmap adds Bolivia, Ecuador, Honduras, Panama, El Salvador, China, Philippines, Singapore, UAE, Ghana, Nigeria and South Africa, strengthening our position as a global cross-border payment facilitator.
Strengthening global capabilities
In 2025, we welcomed StoneX as a strategic investor and global FX partner, a partnership that elevated our global payout capabilities and reinforced our infrastructure with world-class reliability and reach.
Partnering for growth
Beyond technology, Bamboo’s ecosystem continues to expand through new partnerships and merchant integrations across key verticals including e-commerce, payroll, ride-hailing and gaming. These collaborations allow us to co-create innovative solutions that bring flexibility and efficiency to global payments. Explore how our merchants are growing with us in our Success Cases.
