Pix, the instant payment system run by Brazil's central bank, processed more than 319 million transactions in a single day for the first time on Friday, 6 November, Agência Brasil reported, citing the central bank.
The day's payments were worth US$32.2 billion (BRL 180.5 billion), the second-highest daily value on record. The previous transaction record, 318.1 million, was set on 4 September, when payments totalled US$33.4 billion (BRL 186.89 billion), still the highest daily value.
