TRANSFER TO MEXICO

 


Paysend gives you a smooth, transparent, and reliable way to transfer money to Mexico — whether it’s for urgent expenses, celebrations, or just to send a little love back home.


And now, with Walmart’s increased $1800 cash pickup limit, it’s a great choice if you’re looking to send larger amounts of money.


Steps for a successful Cash Pickup


After you’ve sent the transfer, your recipient in Guatemala will need to do the following:

  1. Visit one of the cash pickup locations
    The recipient can go to any location of the brand of bank you choose.
  2. Provide the cash pickup code to your recipient
    Once the transaction is available for pickup, we will make the pickup code available to you in the transaction details. You will need to send this code to your recipient for them to share at the pickup location. 
     - The pickup code can be found by clicking the ‘notify recipient’ link on the transfer details screen. 
     - The Pickup code is referenced as ‘UniTeller pickup code’.
     - If asked, the recipient should mention our partner ‘UniTeller’.
  3. Provide an official valid photo ID
    The recipient will need to provide a valid ID - a Passport or IFE - at the cash pickup location.
