Pix Loot and Pix Change
According to the Central Bank of Brazil, two months after launch, more than 43,000 people have already used these services. The total number of transactions is R$71,700, including Pix Saque and Pix Troco data.
The numbers also show that 73% of the movements of these values occurred in cities in the interior of the country. Among these, of the 10 municipalities with the most operations, five are in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul: Caxias do Sul, Canoas, Viamão, Gravataí and São Leopoldo.
How do they work?
The user will read a QR Code and make a Pix from his account to the account of the agent providing the service. This, in turn, will deliver the corresponding cash to the user.
Both categories, Pix Saque and Pix Troco, work according to Pix technology. However, in Pix Saque, cash corresponds to the value of the transaction previously carried out. Pix Troco, on the other hand, is the difference between the total value of the Pix and the value of the purchase made.
service points
The list of service points is available by the institutions themselves in the Open Data format, made available by the Central Bank. In addition, it is still possible to find information where the modalities are available through a map.
This map was developed in partnership by the Brazilian Association of Fintechs (AB Fintechs) and Pay Ventures. The same is a free tool available to anyone who wants to use it. To do so, just go to mapapix.com.br and indicate your location.
