How Venezuela pays

Venezuelans pay with a mix of rails. Pago Móvil, the interbank mobile payment service, is the everyday way to pay in bolívars between people and shops, alongside local debit cards on domestic networks. US dollars are widely used, in cash and through transfers held in accounts abroad, and many prices are quoted in dollars.

A large diaspora across Latin America, the US and Spain pays for goods and services on behalf of family at home with cards issued abroad. For a merchant, the reachable segment is buyers with foreign-issued cards: Orchestrapay offers international cards and express wallets behind one integration, 3DS on card-not-present payments, and sanctions screening and compliance checks before onboarding. We do not process domestic Venezuelan cards.
