  • BCP

  • Interbank

  • Jet Perú

  • Perú Express

Yes. Ria supports transfers directly to mobile wallets in Peru through:

Can my recipient withdraw funds at an ATM in Peru?

Can I wire money to Peru?

Ria Money Transfer makes it easy to send money to Peru without needing a traditional bank wire. You can send online, through the Ria app, or in person at a Ria location — often at a lower cost and with more delivery options than a bank wire.

Delivery times depend on the method you choose and when you send:

  • Cash pickup: Funds can be available for collection as quickly as minutes, depending on processing.

  • Mobile wallet and ATM: Transfers to Yape or Interbank ATM withdrawal can also reach recipients quickly once processed.

  • Bank deposit: Typically takes longer than cash pickup, especially if currency conversion or compliance checks are involved.

Several factors can affect speed:

  • Time of day: Transfers sent on weekends or after banking hours may experience delays.

  • Payment method: Debit card payments tend to process faster than bank account (ACH) transfers.

  • Delivery method: Cash pickup and mobile wallet are generally faster than bank deposit.

Delivery times are estimates and may vary based on provider processing times, recipient method, and other factors. For the most up-to-date estimate, the Ria app and website display expected delivery times at checkout before you confirm your transfer.
