Building a Payment Solution for Brick-and-Mortar Stores in Brazil

At Mercado Pago, the fintech division of Mercado Libre, I had the opportunity to contribute to the development of Point Smart, a payment device designed for physical stores. The project’s primary goal was to create a seamless payment experience that enabled small and medium-sized businesses to accept card payments effortlessly. As part of the team, I led the user experience design, ensuring that the interface was intuitive and aligned with user needs.

We collaborated on the physical design of the device, including its case and packaging, to provide a cohesive product experience. We also designed and developed the landing page for acquiring the device, which played a key role in its successful launch in Brazil. This project was a great example of combining physical product design with digital UX to create a holistic user journey.
