## Use cases

From startups to enterprises, the same product covers a wide range of collection needs.

- **Fintechs and credit platforms:** Collect recurring installments straight from the customer's account with **Pix Automático**.
- **Payment orchestrators and checkouts:** Build the full payment flow with **direct access to the official APIs**, with no intermediary between the platform and the banks.
- **Financial apps:** Collect inside the app with the **Redirect-free Journey** and move balances between accounts of the same holder with **Smart Transfers**.
- **Companies entering Brazil or that have outgrown their current provider:** Operate under **Cumbuca's license** while they decide whether their own is worth it.

## Protocols available in full

These are the three main protocols for initiating Pix from the customer's account. They differ in how the customer authorizes and in what happens at each charge.

|  | How the customer authorizes | At each charge | Best for |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Pix Automático | At their own bank, once per contract. | The customer's bank schedules the debit and notifies them days ahead. If funds are short, it retries the same day and, if the contract allows, on up to 3 new dates. | Subscriptions, installments and recurring charges. |
| Redirect-free Journey | A one-time link at their own bank. After that, with biometrics, without leaving your app. | The customer confirms the payment. | In-app checkout and Contactless Pix. |
| Smart Transfers | Once, with limits they set themselves. | Transfers happen with no new authorization, within those limits, only between accounts of the same holder. | Moving balances between the customer's own accounts. |

The same integration also covers the other Pix modalities available in Open Finance:

- Pix with key (DICT)
- Pix with account data
- Pix by QR code
- Contactless Pix
- Scheduled Pix
- Recurring Pix

## Cumbuca benefits

- **Your brand on the consent.** The customer sees your company's brand when authorizing the payment. Cumbuca builds the regulatory bridge, and the customer relationship stays yours.
- **Billed only for what succeeded.** We only bill successfully initiated payments and consents actually used. The most aggressive pricing in the market: idle consents and failed payments are never billed.
- **Official APIs, no proprietary layer.** 1:1 mapping to the Open Finance APIs. Every endpoint, every parameter. It is not a wrapper, it is a transparent proxy.
- **Automatically updated with new ecosystem capabilities.** Your product naturally follows the growth of the Open Finance and Pix ecosystem.
- **Your data and keys stay with you.** Cryptographic keys, flows and data remain your property, with a contractual guarantee of no commercial access. Cumbuca does not sell, analyze or share your data.
- **From Cumbuca's license to yours.** Once your company has its own license, there is no migration: just switch the license that signs the requests, and your integration stays the same.

## Implementation

On Cumbuca's infrastructure, your company goes live in weeks. On your own infrastructure, in months.
