Build Your Carnival Bloco with Paysend and Unlock Bigger Rewards
Carnival in Brazil is one of the world’s most joyful celebrations — bringing communities together through music, dance, and shared moments. This Carnival, Paysend is celebrating that same spirit with Carnival Blocos, a limited-time referral campaign.
From 13 to February 21, 2026, every friend you invite to Paysend who sends money to Brazil helps you progress through Carnival Bloco reward levels, unlocking bigger bonuses as you invite more friends.
What are Carnival Blocos?
In Brazil, blocos are open, community-led Carnival groups where everyone is welcome. Inspired by this tradition, Carnival Blocos turns referrals into a celebration — with rewards that grow as more friends join.
Each successful referral adds to your Carnival Bloco total:
- 1 friend to 4 friends → $10 USD Bonus
- 5 friends to 9 friends → $100 USD Bonus
- 10 friends or more → $250 USD Bonus
All Carnival Blocos bonuses are credited to your Paysend Bonus account within 7 working days after the campaign ends. Standard referral rewards still apply.

Not long ago, sending money abroad meant standing in line, filling out forms, and hoping your recipient could collect the cash before the office closed. For decades, this may have been the reality of traditional money transfers: long waits, limited hours, and high fees.
Today, digital-first services like Paysend may have changed that story completely. Money now moves in real-time*, anytime and around the world. This evolution isn’t just about technology; it’s about breaking barriers and addressing the main pain points in cross-border money transfer.
*We’ll send your money in real-time, but it could take up to 3 business days depending on your recipient’s bank processing time.
Sending money to Turkey involves more than simply choosing the lowest fee or the most attractive exchange rate. With fluctuations in the Turkish lira (TRY), strict banking requirements such as IBAN accuracy, and different payout preferences across recipients, an option that may work well for some senders is one that focuses on consistent delivery and transparency, depending on the provider, payout method, and local conditions.
For many senders, especially those supporting family or managing regular payments, the key is balancing speed, currency choice, and payout method. During periods such as Ramadan or Kurban Bayramı, when bank processing may slow down, these decisions become even more important.
