Hipercard is a widely accepted credit card in Brazil, issued by Itaú Unibanco. It is one of the most popular payment options in the country, especially in the Northeast and South regions of Brazil. Hipercard has more than 470,000 accredited establishments and more than 13 million cards issued since 2010.
Hipercard began as a loyalty program for Bompreço supermarkets in Recife in 1969. In 1993, it was fully transformed into a credit card and, in 2004, was acquired by Unibanco, which is now part of Itaú Unibanco. This acquisition enabled its expansion and made it a credit card accepted by a wide variety of commercial establishments.
Hipercard is widely accepted at a variety of online merchants in Brazil, including clothing stores, supermarkets and electronics stores. Many online merchants also allow installment payments with Hipercard, which is especially useful for large purchases.
