3. You will receive a verification code via SMS on your phone. Enter it into the app.  
4. Enter your personal details: ID number and date of birth (email is optional). 
5. Take the photos requested by the app. These are for identity verification. 
6. Then, choose a PIN to protect your account. This will be your password. 
7. And that's it! You can now start using Yolo Pago. 

Yolo Pago is designed to receive international transfers rather than send them. With Ria, friends and family abroad can send money directly to your Yolo Pago wallet. The funds usually arrive within minutes, and once they do, you can use them immediately for purchases, bill payments, or cash withdrawal. 

There is no specific limit for receiving money, but there are limits for individual transactions and accumulated amounts over a period: 

• Transaction limit: In Bolivia, the maximum amount per individual transaction is Bs. 6,885 (around $1,000 USD). 
• Daily limit: On some platforms, the daily transfer and withdrawal limit may be up to $1,000 USD. 
• Accumulated limit: Some platforms set an accumulated limit for deposits and transfers over a certain period—for example, Bs. 5,000.00 and $1,000.00 USD over five consecutive days.  

To send money to someone’s Yolo Pago wallet using Ria, you’ll need: 

• The recipient’s full name (as shown on their ID) 
• Their mobile phone number linked to their Yolo account 

Transfers from Ria Money Transfer to a Yolo Pago digital wallet are typically instant or completed within minutes. However, some factors may cause delays, such as verification processes.

Yes! Yolo Pago users can withdraw cash from their wallet at authorized agents throughout Bolivia. The app will show you the nearest cash-out locations. In most cases, you’ll need to present your ID and confirm the withdrawal via your phone.
