Nearshore call center & BPO, all of Latin America
Nearshore Call Center and BPO Teams in Latin America
Support quality is an accent-neutral, well-trained agent who stays. LATAM wins on both because the talent pool is large, the working day matches yours, and attrition is far lower than in the traditional high-volume offshore centers.
No obligation. You see markets, model and landed cost before anyone calls you.
What is nearshore call center?
A nearshore call center in Latin America gives US companies bilingual voice, chat and email support in your own time zone. You can staff a dedicated team you manage, or buy a managed BPO function with supervisors and quality built in, at roughly 40% to 60% of a comparable US in-house cost.
Your customers get a same-time-zone human. Your finance team gets a US cost line cut roughly in half.
Functions we staff
- Customer support: voice, chat, email and social, in English, Spanish and Portuguese
- Technical support: tier 1 and tier 2, product and SaaS environments
- Sales development and inside sales: outbound SDR, lead qualification, renewals
- Collections, AR and order management
- Back office: claims, data entry, verification, KYC and document review
- Team leads, QA analysts and workforce management
Dedicated team or managed BPO
- Dedicated staffing: agents work inside your systems, under your supervisors and your quality bar.
- Managed BPO: we supply supervisors, QA, scheduling and reporting against agreed service levels.
- Hybrid: you own quality and coaching, we own recruiting, attendance, employment and shift coverage.
Coverage, shifts and the cost picture
LATAM sits inside or next to US time zones, so daytime, evening and weekend coverage is regular local work rather than a night-shift premium. Fully loaded cost per seat generally lands at 40% to 60% of a comparable US in-house seat once salary, statutory burden, supervision and infrastructure are counted, with English-dominant markets such as Costa Rica, Colombia and the Dominican Republic pricing above the regional average.
