Cultural Tip
In Brazil, most banks and online stores send an automated email or SMS with a similar message. The tone is usually formal but friendly; avoid overly casual language like ‘tá rolando’ in professional settings. Also, be aware that processing times can vary – from a few seconds for credit‑card payments to several days for boleto bancário – so it’s common to add an estimated time frame if you have one.
