The thing with a credit card, is that when I buy something online, or it never gets delivered, or turns out to be crap, I can get the credit card company to reimburse me.

And in person, if someone manages to copy it and fraud me, I can also get it resolved and have the credit card company pay me back.

Do these instant payment system offer similar protections?

There's the small claims courts for that, strong consumer protection laws.

Also some banks are offering insurance on trial basis already.

But yeah, I prefer CC on international platforms, or if the cashback is higher than the discount they offer via Pix (5% to 20%).

Lenovo offered me 20% on a Laptop recently through Pix.

With the discount I paid a bit more on broader support, keep your disks, liquid damage protection.

		And from someone who lived in Brazil. Small claims court fucking suck. A kafkian nightmare compared to a chargeback.
