There is no PIX in Portugal, or places other than Brazil.

What they have there is a Brazilian person receiving payments from another Brazilian person, only through Brazilian accounts, all happening remotely in Brazil(at least for now)

What they have is a payment gateway that integrates the Portuguese and Brazilian payments by doing a transfer at each side.

It's the same thing as buying stuff from China with PIX, but the gateway is more hidden from the Portuguese accounts.
