Brazil proxies
Brazil proxies route requests through Brazilian residential and ISP IPs, with city targeting in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Brazilian prices come in several forms at once (cash, instalments, Pix), and the law says how each must be shown, so the schema matters more here than the exit.

- 89.1% of people aged ten and over used the internet in 2024 (IBGE).
- The LGPD (Law 13.709/2018) is interpreted and enforced by the ANPD.

What teams collect in Brazil
Price monitoring
Marketplaces such as Mercado Livre and retailers such as Magazine Luiza show a cash or Pix price next to an instalment plan. Collect all three, plus the number of instalments and whether they carry interest; marketplace sellers covers seller-level fields.
Reviews & changes
Brazilian consumers publish complaints and company responses on public platforms such as Reclame Aqui as well as in app stores. Track response rates and themes over time from Brazilian exits.
Real estate & jobs
São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are separate property markets with listings on portals such as ZAP Imóveis and OLX, often with the condominium fee and IPTU tax as extra lines. Store those separately from the asking price.
Ad verification
Affiliate and coupon activity around Brazilian marketplaces is heavy, and redirects can differ by region. Affiliate link monitoring covers following redirect chains from a local exit.
Alternative data
Online prices give a daily view of price changes between official inflation releases, from the same marketplaces Brazilians actually buy on. Online price indices covers basket design.

The Brazil market, for data teams
Cash, instalments and Pix: how Brazilian prices are displayed
Decree 5.903 of 2006, which regulates Law 10.962/2004 and the Consumer Defence Code, requires prices to state the cash total ('total à vista'). Where credit or instalments are offered, the page must also give the total payable, the number, frequency and value of instalments, the interest and any charges. Showing a price only in instalments, so that the consumer has to work out the total, is prohibited, and a 2013 amendment applies these rules to e-commerce.
Pix adds a third price. Many shops offer a discount for paying by Pix, so a single product page can show three figures. Model them explicitly:
| Field | Example label on page | Why keep it |
|---|---|---|
price_cash | à vista | The legally required reference price |
price_pix | no Pix | Often the lowest; discounts vary by shop and campaign |
installments_n | em 10x | Number of instalments offered |
installment_value | de R$ 99,90 | Per-instalment amount |
installments_interest | sem juros / com juros | Interest-free plans are a pricing lever in themselves |
price_total_installments | total a prazo | Can exceed the cash price when interest applies |

The LGPD and the ANPD
Brazil's General Data Protection Law (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais, Law 13.709 of 14 August 2018) is interpreted and enforced by the ANPD, which the consolidated text now names the Agência Nacional de Proteção de Dados. The ANPD describes itself as the central body for interpreting the LGPD.
Marketplace and classified listings from private individuals can contain names, phone numbers and CPF-like identifiers. Exclude them unless they are essential, and follow our acceptable use policy. This section is a description, not legal advice.

FAQ
Questions
Something not covered? Write to contact@arcproxies.io.
Can I target São Paulo specifically?
Yes. São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are the two Brazilian city targets on the rotating pools; copy the city token exactly as the availability table prints it. Brasília, Belo Horizonte and other cities use Brazil country targeting.
Is mobile available in Brazil?
No. ARC Mobile exits are only in Germany, the UK, the US and Japan. For Brazilian mobile-web pages use residential exits with mobile device signals.
Which Brazilian price should go into my index?
Usually the cash price, because it is the legally required reference. Keep Pix and instalment prices as separate series; mixing them makes a payment-method promotion look like inflation or deflation.
Do Brazilian sites need a Brazilian IP to show BRL prices?
Many show BRL to anyone on the .com.br domain, but delivery estimates, freight costs and some promotions depend on the CEP (postal code) and on the visitor's region. Use a Brazilian exit and set the CEP explicitly.
