PagoEfectivo

PagoEfectivo is Peru's payment-code method: the checkout issues a CIP, a numeric payment code with the amount and an expiry date, and the payer pays it where it suits them, in cash at a bank agent or branch, in online banking as a bill payment to PagoEfectivo, or at an ATM. The provider confirms once the payment is reported, within minutes from online banking and within hours from a cash point; there are no chargebacks, and the payer needs no card.

Frequently asked questions

Where can a CIP be paid?+
At the agents and branches of the main Peruvian banks, in their online banking and apps as a payment to PagoEfectivo, and at ATMs; the checkout lists the channels and the expiry date, which the merchant sets, usually one to three days.
How fast is the payment confirmed?+
When the bank reports it: minutes for a payment made in online banking, hours for cash paid at an agent. The order is released on confirmation; an unpaid code simply expires.
Are refunds possible?+
Not through the PagoEfectivo flow: the integration covers pay-ins only, with no payouts, refunds or recurring charges. A return to the payer is made by the client through another method.
