In a country where the management of foreign exchange transactions continues to grow significantly, Apóyame, an exclusive Bancamiga service, is presented as an alternative to receive dollars immediately and safely, through an encrypted platform that has the support of a financial institution, explains a statement from the banking institution.
This facility allows many Venezuelans, with the support of a family member or friends abroad, to receive resources from anywhere in the world that allow them to solve an emergency or delicate situation, and at a lower cost than an international transfer.
To receive foreign currency this way you must open a Bancamiga account and from the Internet Banking www.bancamiga.com go to the Global Position and go to the Support me button, create the request and fill in the following fields:
- The account where you will receive the funds
- The name of the person to whom it is addressed
- Your email
- The amount required
The Universal Bank explains that it should be remembered that “you must tell the person who sends you the funds, who does not need to have a Bancamiga account, to check their email to accept and respond to the Support me request.”
One of the advantages of the service is that whoever offers the support only needs to have an international debit or credit card from any bank with which they can make purchases over the Internet and identification (identity card, license or passport).
The payment process in Apóyame is very simple: the recipient only enters the email, locates the email and clicks on the button identified as Press here! Subsequently, you must complete the form, add the card information, upload the photo of your identification (identity card or passport) and process the request.
It only takes a few minutes
In a matter of minutes, the funds in dollars will be credited to the Foreign Currency account of the client requesting support. It’s as easy as making a purchase online. The commission for processing expenses is 7% plus $0.50, which is paid by the person offering the support.
This service launched last year also offers the benefit of allowing the person with a Bancamiga account to charge from Venezuela. If you have an international bank account, you can also transfer to your Foreign Currency account at Bancamiga.
With Apóyame, the client can receive up to 300 dollars every 48 hours, in a safe and fast process, the statement concludes.
If the user has any questions about how to make the Support me request, they can write to the Bancamiga Telegram: +58 414 8822622.
