Cash Cows
Clip Mini and Clip Plus 2, legacy entry-level mPOS devices, have reached ~60% market penetration among Mexico's micro-merchants and sit in a mature, low-growth hardware segment in 2025.
With manufacturing costs cut to ~$12/unit and a dominant share, they delivered Clip SARL ~MXN 1.2 billion in device-related gross profit in FY2025, funding R&D and newer products.
Brand recognition means minimal marketing spend-device CAC fell to MXN 45 in 2025-so these units generate steady cash flow to finance growth initiatives.
The core 3.6 percent plus VAT standard MDR remains Clip's main cash cow, generating roughly MXN 5.2 billion in FY2025 transaction revenue (about USD 290m), funding interest and principal on MXN 1.1 billion corporate debt and MXN 450m R&D spend.
