Pix Withdrawal and Pix Change
2.5 Pix Withdrawal and Pix Change
In view of the limited conditions for providing withdrawals in Brazil, either
due to the existence of municipalities with a low presence of financial
institutions or the asymmetries in the geographical distribution of withdrawal
points coupled with the restriction on the provision of withdrawals by digital
institutions, in November 2021 Pix Withdrawal and Pix Change functionalities
were launched, with the aim of: increasing the capillarity of service points;
promoting competition in the provision of the financial system withdrawal
services; increasing convenience for users and democratizing access to the
withdrawal service for Brazilians.
Pix Withdrawal allows users who have an account at any institution
participating in Pix to make a Pix transfer directly from their account to the
account of a withdrawal agent, which can be a commercial establishment,
a bank correspondent or shared ATMs; or to the account of institutions.
participating in Pix, through the use of their proprietary ATMs. Then, the
withdrawal agent or Pix participant handles the funds requested by the user
in an amount corresponding to the Pix transfer made.
Pix Change consists of a transaction in which the user with an account at any Pix
participant, when making a purchase at a withdrawal agent, makes a Pix transfer
for that agent's account in an amount equivalent to the sum of the purchase
value and the value of the amount the user wishes to receive back in cash, as a
change. The value delivered to the user will be the difference between the total
value of the Pix and the value of the purchase made at the establishment.
In order to serve a wide range of users profiles, the conception of Pix Withdrawal
and Pix Change was guided by the ease of implementation and the flexibility
offered to withdrawal agents, who can define, for example, the days and times
for providing the service and the maximum amount available for withdrawal, in
addition to other possibilities for customizing the availability of the withdrawal
service, which may vary according to the particularities of each agent.
