Multi Month Payments Brazil

Post new topic

fishnraider

I moved to Florianopolis and was thinking about buying a Kayak using the multi payment system and cannot get my Chase Bank  debit or Capitol One debit card to work with that. I do have a Capitol One credit card that I haven't tried. Can does the card have to be from a Brazilian Bank or does anyone have any idea how this system works???
Thanks

You can use US cards, but you pay as you would in the US. Cannot do in BR installments (well maybe, but it would not recommend having a vendor having you CC # for a length of time

I wouldn´t give my CC number on file for anyone! Just routine purchases and 2 of my cards cloned in Brazil.

Been There Done That, it's not your Card, it's the Company your trying to buy it from...I been in that Rodeo, the best way is to get a Brasilian Bank Card and that will solve your problem....
And I used my Brasilian Card to buy on time the Time was One Month....if you do buy on time have them give you the amount of months for Same as Cash...

It is the store that is rejecting the card...I found out through trial and error, The Clerk doesn't know it is the upper echelon  of the store rejecting the card...
I treid with several stores and the rejection kept coming and I will no give the stores plugs or accolades for there own Staff is ignorant that there "Corporate Office is Rejecting the Transaction"...

Will the merchant give you no-interest installments?  On the rare occasions that I don't pay cash for the discount, I go that way.  It's mildly inconvenient to stop at the store every month, but it might be worth your while.
