Send money from Argentina to Brazil
Share a funded Link. Your recipient claims digital dollars in Peanut, verifies and can pay supported Pix merchant QR codes.
Fund a Peanut Link and share it with your recipient in Brazil. They open the Link and claim digital dollars into Peanut. After the required verification, they can use that balance for supported Pix merchant QR payments.
One side of the Link must complete identity verification. The recipient does not need an existing Peanut account before opening it. A Link delivers digital dollars into Peanut; it does not claim directly to Pix.
Funding the sender’s balance
Local ARS deposits require Argentine residence, a CUIT/CUIL/DNI and an eligible account. If that route is not available to you, check Peanut for a supported currency/network deposit; a passport alone does not unlock ARS bank funding.
The sender’s location alone does not establish eligibility for a funding method. Check the options available to the account before sending. A deposit from a wallet or exchange must use the exact supported currency and network, with at least the minimum shown for that address. Peanut covers supported deposit processing; the sending service may charge its own fee.

Recipient claims into Peanut
The recipient opens the Link and claims the full amount. One side completes identity verification; later QR spending has its own verification requirement.
What the recipient can do
After claiming into Peanut, the recipient completes the required verification and can pay supported Pix merchant QR codes. Passport-based QR verification does not require a Brazilian bank account or CPF.
A local BRL bank withdrawal is separate: it requires Brazilian residence, CPF and the user’s own eligible account. It is not the same as sending to another person’s Pix key.
A separate option: pay a Pix key
An eligible sender can also pay a Brazilian recipient’s Pix key. In Peanut, choose Send → Send to friends → Bank → Brazil → Pix, enter the key and review the amount and quote. This uses the QR-payment capability and its limits. The recipient receives the Pix payment without claiming a Peanut Link; it is separate from a first-party BRL bank withdrawal.
Costs and timing
Creating a Link and claiming into Peanut have no Peanut fee. Funding costs depend on the sender’s method. Currency-conversion costs are included in the applicable quote. For a later QR payment, the recipient sees the local BRL amount and total dollar cost before confirmation.
A claim into Peanut can be instant after the Link is funded. Sender funding, identity review and any later bank or network transfer take separate time. If the recipient later withdraws to a wallet, the selected network has its own minimum and quote; Ethereum, Tron and Solana have delivery costs.
FAQ
Does the Link pay a local bank account?
The flow on this page claims digital dollars into Peanut. Direct Link claims to Mercado Pago or Pix are not supported. Eligible SEPA or ACH bank claims are separate options under their own route conditions.
Who needs identity verification?
One side must verify for the Link. The recipient must also meet the verification requirements for later QR spending; claiming a Link does not automatically unlock every payment method.
Does the recipient need a local bank account for QR payments?
No. An eligible recipient can verify for supported merchant QR payments using a passport. Local ARS or BRL bank deposits and withdrawals have additional residence, tax-ID and own-account requirements.
Is the whole transfer instant and free?
The funded in-Peanut claim can be immediate with no Peanut claim fee. Funding, conversion and later external transfers have their own costs and timing.
