New service! Send money for cash pickup

Cash pickup transfers are transfers made online by the sender of funds and are picked up as cash by the recipient in another country. In order to make a transfer, the sender only needs to know the full name and date of birth of the recipient – making it extra simple and convenient.

This service doesn't even require the recipient to have a bank account, as the money is simply picked up from dedicated cash withdrawal locations by them providing their passport and cash pickup code.

That is why these types of transfers are suitable for a number of occasions:

• Sending money to the elderly, who might not know how to use online banking;
• Sending money as a surprise, since you don’t need to ask for a person’s IBAN;
• Sending money to those who might not have a bank account or don’t know how to use it;
• Sending money to someone who is travelling in Ukraine, since an international passport is accepted for cash pickup;
• Sending money urgently and not losing it all on high fees;
• Sending money back home to your family, etc.

Sending and receiving money for cash pickup is easy even for those who don’t usually do money transfers.

First, the sender (who must be a Paysera client) fills out a transfer form by entering the recipient's name, surname, and date of birth. All of this is done via bank.paysera.com Then the sender makes a transfer in euro and within 10 minutes receives an automatically generated cash pickup code. The sender shares the cash pickup code with the recipient. Finally, the recipient goes to one of the cash pic-up locations, shows their ID, internal or international passport, provides the cash pick-up code, and is issued money.
