Revenue model
- Transaction fees on processed payments: Asaas charges transaction fees only when payments are successfully received. No monthly fees, no setup costs. Fees vary by payment method: credit card, boleto, Pix, etc. This is the primary revenue driver and aligns Asaas's incentives with its customers' success.
- Receivables anticipation (credit advances): Asaas provides early payment of outstanding receivables for a fee. Rates start at 1.25% per month for credit card online sales and 5.79% per month for boleto anticipations. Special zero-rate terms apply for Asaas Tap credit sales. Revenue derived from the spread between cost of capital and interest charged.
- Advanced plan subscription (R$99.90/month): Premium subscription plan priced at R$99.90 per month providing access to advanced features such as fully customizable email and SMS notification templates, extended collection rules, and enhanced reporting capabilities.
- Collection notification fees: Fees for automated collection reminder notifications sent via WhatsApp (R$0.55 per notification), voice robot/phone calls (R$0.55 per call), email and SMS packages (R$0.99 per transaction package), and physical mail via Correios (R$2.91 per letter).
- White-label and BaaS licensing: Revenue from partners (platforms, fintechs, ERPs) that embed Asaas's licensed financial infrastructure. Partners integrate via API to offer Asaas-powered payment and banking services under their own brand, with revenue shared or fee-based per transaction.

ASAAS product offering
Product offeringCore offering
ASAAS is a Brazilian regulated payment institution that provides an all-in-one financial management and payment processing platform for SMEs, combining multi-method payment acceptance (Pix, credit/debit cards, boleto bank slips, payment links), automated collection reminders (Régua de Cobrança), receivables anticipation, digital PJ banking account, electronic invoicing, and ERP functionality within a single API-accessible platform. The company operates a Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) white-label model enabling partners to embed licensed financial infrastructure, supported by Central Bank of Brazil SCD/SCFI authorization.
Product overview
Asaas is a Brazilian all-in-one financial and operational platform for SMEs, positioning itself as a complete ecosystem rather than a single product. The core platform (asaas.com) provides a digital PJ account with integrated billing, payment acceptance (Pix, credit/debit card, boleto, and payment links), and receivables management. This core is supplemented by a portfolio of add-on modules: Asaas Tap (tap-to-pay via smartphone), the Asaas Mastercard debit card, a multi-channel automated collection rule (Régua de Cobrança) with voice robot and Serasa integration, automated invoice issuance (Nota Fiscal), receivables anticipation, split payments, and escrow accounts. Asaas operates as both a payment gateway and a Banking as a Service (BaaS) provider via its White Label API, allowing partners to embed financial services under their own brand. The platform also offers a free cloud ERP called Base (an acquired product), a digital wallet/BNPL product (Code Money acquisition), insurance distribution (Mutuus by Asaas), conversational CRM (Helena CRM acquisition), and invoice automation (Nexinvoice acquisition). The Asaas API (REST, JSON, webhook-enabled) underpins the entire platform and powers all integrations with Shopify, WooCommerce, Nuvemshop, Magento, Pluga, Make/Integromat, and N8N. Asaas holds SCD and SCFI licenses from Brazil's Central Bank, positioning it as a regulated financial institution with payment and lending authority.
