zPix Automático is Brazil’s leap into frictionless recurring payments.
Launched on June 16, 2025, the Central Bank of Brazil empowers users to schedule automatic Pix payments with just one consent.
Pix Automático is Brazil's new automated recurring payment feature, enabling businesses to collect subscription payments directly from customers' bank accounts or digital wallets. It allows consumers to authorize recurring payments for services such as subscriptions, utilities, and memberships through a one-time consent. Pix Automatico was built on Pix, which had a huge success and was created by the Central Bank.
Unlike traditional debit mandates, Pix Automático is universal and it’s mobile-native, real-time, and designed for simplicity. Customers can cancel a scheduled payment up to a minute before execution. While chargebacks, as seen in card systems, don’t apply to Pix, refunds can be managed by the merchant through the official refund API. Pix Automático isn’t just a feature—it’s public financial infrastructure. For SaaS finance leaders, it’s time to rethink payment flows and unlock subscription potential in Brazil.
How can PayPro Global help?
PayPro Global enables SaaS businesses to integrate Pix Automático into their checkout experiences with minimal development. With built-in lifecycle management and smart dunning tools, you can recover failed payments proactively—before churn occurs.
Mid-June is a milestone, not just a date.
After a one-year delay from its initial 2024 target, Pix Automático was rolled out countrywide on June 16, 2025. Around 165 million Pix users will be able to plan and automate regular payments from that point on.
Fintechs aren't the only companies getting ready; payment platforms, SaaS companies, and streaming services are also aligning. Activation plans have been announced by payment processors such as Dock, PagBrasil, and EBANX. SaaS companies may finally get past failed renewals and expired cards as subscription renewals shift to permanent, bank-grade infrastructure.
Think of Pix Automático as a smart trigger: the customer consents once—and the payment executes on schedule.
Here’s the simplified flow:
Real-time confirmation: payment clears instantly.
This system is supported across banks, neobanks, and wallets, thanks to a centralized Pix infrastructure managed by Banco Central do Brasil. There are no delays—just uninterrupted flow.

Pix Automatico is an official system from Brazil's Central Bank for collecting recurring payments. After a one-time customer consent, it automates subscription payments directly from their bank account, making it ideal for SaaS billing models.
Regular Pix is for one-time manual payments, while Pix Automatico is automated for recurring billing. Unlike credit cards, it avoids failures from expired cards or credit limits, which directly reduces involuntary customer churn.
The main benefit is a sharp reduction in churn from failed payments. It also unlocks access to millions of cardless customers in Brazil, lowers processing costs, and completely eliminates the risk of fraudulent chargebacks.
Yes, customers retain full control. They can cancel any scheduled payment directly in their banking app up to a minute before it is processed, which builds user trust.
Absolutely. It runs on the same secure infrastructure managed by the Central Bank of Brazil as the entire Pix system. For businesses, direct bank payments remove the risk of fraudulent chargebacks.
If a payment fails due to insufficient funds, a payment partner can use smart dunning tools. These systems automatically and intelligently retry the payment at optimal times to maximize payment recovery.
Pix Garantido is a future feature for installment payments, like a "Buy Now, Pay Later" (BNPL) model for a single purchase. In contrast, Pix Automatico is specifically for ongoing, recurring subscription payments.
