Availability in Brazil

If you run — or plan to register — a company in one of those markets, which is common for São Paulo founders selling to customers abroad, you can use Square for that entity. To hold and move Brazilian real locally from São Paulo in the meantime, a Globe multi-currency account (powered by WorldFirst) works today.
