Mexico is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce markets in Latin America, yet millions of consumers still lack access to credit cards, limiting their ability to shop online or in-store. Through this integration, international merchants can easily and securely enable Kueski Pay in Mexico, giving millions of local consumers a flexible payment option designed around their financial needs.

The partnership is part of dLocal BNPL Fuse, the first BNPL aggregator built specifically for emerging markets. The solution consolidates multiple BNPL providers into a single, scalable integration fully managed by dLocal. With one API and one contract — and risk-free settlements for merchants — global retailers can instantly offer installment payments without the complexity of integrating with each provider individually. BNPL Fuse is now available in eight countries, reaching more than 500 million shoppers through a single connection. The platform is expanding rapidly across Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, simplifying orchestration, compliance, and optimization for merchants and BNPL partners alike.

The collaboration opens new opportunities for both consumers and global brands. Mexican shoppers will gain access to a trusted and transparent payment solution that allows them to buy now and pay later, even without a credit card. According to a survey conducted by Kueski in August 2025, 91% of its customers consider the company more reliable and transparent than other financial institutions. For international merchants, the partnership enables access to new customer segments, higher conversion rates, and lower cart abandonment — through a localized BNPL integration designed specifically for the Mexican market.

“With BNPL Fuse, we’re partnering with local leaders like Kueski to help global merchants activate BNPL in Mexico through a single integration — making flexible payments easier for shoppers and increasing conversions and sales for merchants,” said Duncan Steblyna, SVP of Product at dLocal.

“Our goal at Kueski has always been to expand access to flexible payment options for consumers while driving value for merchants,” said Lisset May, SVP of Sales at Kueski. “Through this alliance with dLocal, leading international retailers can now offer BNPL in Mexico through a seamless integration that boosts sales and enhances the customer shopping experience.”

Looking ahead, Kueski and dLocal plan to continue advancing Mexico’s payments ecosystem by combining technological innovation with global reach, transforming the way consumers shop and pay while helping merchants grow in one of the region’s most dynamic markets.
