Taking care of your loved ones comes first. That’s why we’re committed to getting your money where it matters at Ria Money Transfer. Whether you’re sending money through our app, online, or at a Ria location, we’ll walk you through everything your recipient needs to know about Ria Money Transfer cash pickups.

But first, what is a cash pickup?

If you’re new to sending or receiving money transfers, you may be unaware of what a “cash pickup” is. A cash pickup enables your recipient to collect the money transfer in cash at the selected Ria location. To this day, cash pickups powered by Ria remain the most popular payout method for remittance senders around the world.

So, how does the Ria cash pickup work?

On the sending side, you’ll need to select cash pickup as a delivery method and choose the most convenient Ria location for your recipient. This could be the place closest to their job or their home. Be sure to check the most convenient cash pick-up times according to each location.

In some cases, the money can be picked up at any Ria branch in the country of destination, such as Morocco, India, and Senegal. In the Dominican Republic, Armenia, Hungary, Morocco, Vietnam, and the Philippines, we also have a home delivery service in which the cash is delivered to your recipient’s doorstep within 24 to 48 hours.

On the receiving side, your recipient will need a valid ID and PIN (personal identification number) provided with your transfer. This same number can be used to track your transfer.

Once the transfer is finalized, your Ria Money Transfer cash pickup will be available within minutes!

Are there other options besides cash pickup?

Yes! You can initiate your Ria Money Transfer transfer through our app, website, or a Ria location. Through any of these options, you can select bank or mobile wallet as a delivery method, depending on availability in your country.
