  "summary": "Ebanx is preparing to expand its payments operations into Pakistan in the first half of 2027, initially supporting local digital wallets JazzCash and Easypaisa, followed by Raast, the country’s national instant-payment system. The company is also rolling out its own Apple Pay token-decryption system across Latin America and the Caribbean, aiming to reduce the technical burden on merchants while supporting Apple Pay transactions through its acquiring network. Ebanx's CEO, João Del Valle, noted that AI could allow new competitors to emerge from outside the payments industry, making customer relationships, regulatory infrastructure, geographic reach, and partnerships more important as software becomes easier to replicate.",
