CloudWalk Selected for PCI SSC Board, Global Forum for Payment Security

São Paulo, February 2026 — CloudWalk, the technology company behind the financial services platforms InfinitePay in Brazil and JIM.com in the United States, has been selected as one of the 34 Brazilian companies to join the regional advisory board of the PCI SSC (PCI Security Standards Council), the global forum for payment security, for the 2026–2027 term. 

Members of the PCI SSC Brazil Regional Engagement Board act as advisors on issues and challenges related to payment security in the region, as well as ambassadors who foster education and awareness of standards and best practices for the protection of payment data. CloudWalk has been a member of the regional board since 2022 and in all subsequent years. 

“Being part of the PCI SSC Brazil Regional Engagement Board reinforces CloudWalk’s commitment to the highest standards of compliance, governance, and data protection, while also allowing us to actively contribute to the evolution of security best practices in Brazil and globally,” says Aline Lima, Chief of Compliance at CloudWalk.

The companies that make up the Brazil Regional Advisory Board for 2026–2027 represent leaders from all segments of the payments industry in Brazil – including vendors, merchants, processors, service providers, banks, and industry associations. The Board will meet regularly throughout the term to discuss topics related to payment data security, as well as market trends and changes.

“The Brazil Regional Advisory Board is a key PCI SSC initiative, as it enables stakeholders to join forces and collaborate on payment security, providing a unique and comprehensive representation of the region,” said Guilherme Scheibe, PCI SSC Regional Director for Brazil and Latin America.

The main priorities for 2026–2027 focus on strengthening the payment security ecosystem in the region. This includes continued support for the adoption of PCI security standards, requirements, and processes, combined with the collection of relevant feedback from local organizations.

Encouraging collaboration is also essential, promoting the growth of Participating Organizations in Brazil and across the region through active engagement and increased participation in PCI SSC initiatives, such as annual Community Meetings and training programs.

Finally, a strategic understanding of the market is highlighted, with the identification of regional trends, emerging payment security initiatives, and new technologies, ensuring that PCI SSC effectively supports the region’s specific challenges.

“Brazil’s growing role in the global payments ecosystem highlights the importance of regional collaboration,” says Gina Gobeyn, Executive Director of PCI SSC. “By expanding market engagement, we gain greater visibility into payment innovation, data protection, and security challenges, enabling the development of standards and resources that strengthen payment security worldwide,” she concludes.
