DLocal enables merchants to access local payment methods in 60+ markets via API, driving rapid TPV growth and high client retention. DLO's gross profit grew 28.6% YoY in Q2 2026 despite take-rate compression, as volume discounts for large partners are offset by expanding transaction volumes. The stock trades at a forward P/E of 16.9, 78% below its 2021 peak, with market skepticism focused on margin compression as local-to-local flows and large merchants increase.
Here is how DLocal (DLO) and Paymentus (PAY) have performed compared to their sector so far this year.
