This is a common practice and is supported by most credit card issuers in Brazil. + +### Features of PagBank Integrações + +- **3D Secure Authentication**: Enhances the security of online transactions by requiring an additional layer of verification, reducing the risk of fraud and significantly improving the approval rate. +- **Support for Major Payment Types**: Including credit cards, PIX, and Boleto Bancário. +- **Installment Payments**: Allows customers to pay in multiple installments, making it easier to afford higher-priced items. +- **Lowest Fees**: When you use this official partner module, you get one of the lowest fees in the market and pay less than official rates, while support the project. + + + +With PagBank Integrações, you can provide your customers with a seamless and secure payment experience, tailored to the unique needs of the Brazilian market.
