Payouts to Chile

Pay Chilean pesos from USDT or USDC

Chile's corridor is a trade corridor: wine, fruit, salmon and copper exporters, and the engineering and mining service firms around Santiago and Antofagasta, all invoicing in pesos. XEROF pays CLP to a Chilean bank account from a USDT or USDC balance, business to business, business to consumer and consumer to business.

How a payout to Chile works

Beneficiary KYC applies above CLP 7,000,000 and is completed before release. Payments are addressed with the beneficiary's RUT.

Paying Chile from Zug: timing and practicalities

Santiago is four to five hours behind Zug. Chilean peso payments confirmed in the Swiss morning are credited the same Chilean banking day; those confirmed later credit the next. Chilean banks close on national holidays and on the days around Fiestas Patrias in September.

Every Chilean account is tied to a RUT, which the receiving bank matches to the holder, and beneficiary KYC applies above CLP 7,000,000. Exporters of wine and fruit invoice in dollars and are paid in pesos at the rate on the confirmation.

What XEROF needs before the first payment

  • Beneficiary name, bank, account type and account number, with RUT.
  • The invoice or contract the payment settles.
  • Beneficiary KYC documentation above CLP 7,000,000.

Common questions

What is the RUT and why is it required?
The Rol Único Tributario, Chile's tax identifier for people and companies. Chilean banks match it to the account holder, so every payout in this corridor carries it.
What is the maximum for a CLP payout to Chile?
No fixed maximum; beneficiary KYC above CLP 7,000,000, set by the receiving market.

Chile: limits set by the receiving market, availability subject to screening and partner requirements, indicative and not an offer. See the coverage table.
