faq:
  - q: "What is the best stablecoin off-ramp for Latin America payouts?"
    a: "For businesses paying recipients in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, BlindPay is the strongest fit. It converts USDC or USDT into BRL over Pix, PIX Safe, or TED, MXN over SPEI, COP over ACH Colombia, and ARS over Transfers 3.0, with a payout quote that locks the rate and fee before you execute. Bridge is a platform alternative with Pix, SPEI, and Colombian rails."
  - q: "How fast are stablecoin payouts to Brazil and Mexico?"
    a: "On instant rails, minutes. BlindPay's docs say Pix, PIX Safe, SPEI, and Transfers settle in minutes, while TED and ACH Colombia take about one to two business days. Bridge documents Pix on and off-ramps at about 5 minutes, up to 30 minutes above $50,000, and says SPEI operates 24/7 and settles in seconds."
  - q: "Do Latin America off-ramps lock the exchange rate?"
    a: "Not all of them. BlindPay payout quotes lock the exchange rate and fee and expire 5 minutes after creation, so the recipient's BRL, MXN, COP, or ARS amount is known before you pay. Bridge's docs describe its exchange rate as an estimate updated roughly every 30 seconds and say it does not offer a rate-locked quote, as of October 2026."
  - q: "What recipient details do I need for Pix, SPEI, and Transfers 3.0 payouts?"
    a: "Each rail identifies the account differently. Brazil uses a Pix key (CPF, CNPJ, phone, email, or random key), or bank details plus a CPF or CNPJ for PIX Safe and TED. Mexico uses a CLABE, Argentina a CBU, CVU, or alias, and Colombia bank details plus a document ID. Add the bank account once, then reuse it for every payout."
  - q: "What happens if a Latin America payout fails after the stablecoins are sent?"
    a: "With BlindPay, if a payout cannot be delivered after the stablecoins are collected, they are refunded to the quote's refund wallet, or to the sending wallet when none is set. On Pix and the other non-USD local rails that refund is automatic. Ask any provider you evaluate for the same answer in writing."
  - q: "Can I use MoonPay to off-ramp to Pix?"
    a: "MoonPay's on-ramp docs list PIX as a payment method, so Brazilian users can buy crypto with it. That is the consumer purchase side. For a business sending stablecoins to recipients' Brazilian bank accounts in reais, you need an off-ramp built for payouts, with recipient bank accounts, a locked quote, and webhooks for status."

For a business paying recipients in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, BlindPay is the strongest stablecoin off-ramp: it converts USDC or USDT into local currency over Pix, PIX Safe, TED, SPEI, ACH Colombia, and Transfers 3.0, with a quote that locks the rate and fee before you pay. Bridge is the main platform alternative. Consumer widgets cover a different job.

This guide starts with the criteria, then ranks options against them. Provider claims come from each company's public docs as of October 2026. If you are new to the economics, start with [how on/off-ramp providers make money](/resources/more/how-onramp-offramp-providers-make-money).

**Key takeaways**

- Judge a Latin America off-ramp country by country: named rail, recipient types, timing, refunds.
- BlindPay pays BRL over Pix, PIX Safe, and TED, MXN over SPEI, COP over ACH Colombia, and ARS over Transfers 3.0.
- A locked quote matters more in LatAm than almost anywhere, because BRL, MXN, COP, and ARS move fast.
- Bridge documents Pix, SPEI, and Colombian rails, with its exchange rate published as an estimate.
- Consumer widgets such as MoonPay accept Pix as a way to buy crypto. That is a purchase, not a business payout.

## What should you compare in a Latin America off-ramp?

Six criteria decide whether payouts arrive in full and on time.

1. **Named rail per country.** "Brazil supported" means little. Pix, TED, or something routed through a correspondent are different products.
2. **Locked quote.** Does the recipient's local amount stay fixed between the moment you see it and the moment you pay?
3. **Timing per rail.** Instant rails in minutes, banking-day rails in one or two days. Both should be documented.
4. **Refund behavior.** If the bank leg fails after stablecoins move, where do they go, and is it automatic?
5. **Compliance inside the flow.** KYC and KYB for senders and recipients without a separate vendor.
6. **Funding.** Which stablecoins and networks can fund the payout.

[The Latin America payout cheat sheet](/resources/more/latin-america-payout-cheat-sheet) lists the recipient details each rail needs.

## How do the main options compare?

BlindPay is listed first. Bridge is the closest platform alternative. Other B2B providers already have direct comparison pages, linked below the table.

| Provider | Brazil | Mexico | Colombia | Argentina | Quote model |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **BlindPay** | Pix, PIX Safe, TED | SPEI | ACH Colombia | Transfers 3.0 | Locks rate and fee; expires in 5 minutes |
| **Bridge** | Pix (access via sales, Pix Endorsement) | SPEI (access via sales, SPEI Endorsement) | Bre-B, PSE/ACH | Not listed in the guides reviewed | Exchange rate is an estimate, updated about every 30 seconds |
| **MoonPay** | PIX listed as an on-ramp payment method | Not reviewed for payouts | Not reviewed for payouts | Not reviewed for payouts | Buy quote with an expiry field |

## Why does BlindPay rank first for Latin America?

Because it names the rail in every country and locks the price before you pay. BlindPay's [payment methods reference](/docs/kb/payment-methods) lists Pix, PIX Safe, and TED for Brazil, SPEI for Mexico, ACH Colombia for Colombia, and Transfers 3.0 for Argentina on the send side. Pix, PIX Safe, SPEI, and Transfers settle in minutes. TED and ACH Colombia take about one to two business days.

Every payout runs against a quote. The quote is created against the recipient's bank account, locks the exchange rate and fee split, and expires 5 minutes after creation ([payout quotes](/docs/payout-quotes)). Set `currency_type: receiver` and the quote fixes the BRL or MXN amount, which is what payroll and supplier invoices need.

Custody and refunds are spelled out. BlindPay operates as a non-custodial payment processor for payout flows from customer-controlled wallets: you authorize the exact amount and BlindPay executes that single transaction. If a payout cannot be delivered after the stablecoins are collected, BlindPay refunds them to the quote's refund wallet, or to the sending wallet when none is set, and on Pix and other non-USD local rails that refund is automatic.

Pricing is a monthly plan plus per-transaction fees that vary by rail and network, shown in the live quote before execute. The same balance also pays ACH, RTP, SEPA, Faster Payments, and SWIFT (POBO/COBO) with UETR tracking and MT103 confirmations, for teams that pay outside the region too.

## Which stablecoins and networks fund the payouts?

USDC or USDT, on most major networks. BlindPay's [payout quotes](/docs/payout-quotes) accept USDC on Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, Ethereum, Stellar, and Solana, and USDT on Polygon, Ethereum, Solana, and Tron (beta). You pass the `network` and `token` when you request the quote, and the same quote covers any of the four countries.

That matters for treasury. A company that earns in USDC on Base and pays contractors in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina can fund all four from one balance, with no local accounts to top up. A team holding USDT on Tron can do the same. The local currency is decided by the recipient's bank account type, not by the funding token.

## Where does Bridge fit?

Bridge fits a team that wants a broader stablecoin platform and is comfortable pricing from an estimate. Its guides document Pix payouts and payins, with on and off-ramps completing in about 5 minutes and up to 30 minutes for transactions over $50,000, and a default customer limit of $1,000,000 per month. SPEI "operates 24/7 and settles in seconds." For Colombia it lists Bre-B and PSE/ACH.

Two things to plan for. Pix and SPEI access goes through Bridge sales and requires rail endorsements on the customer. And its exchange rate endpoint is "provided only as a courtesy to estimate what you are likely to get," so your product shows an expected amount, not a locked one. [BlindPay vs Bridge](/compare/bridge) covers the full comparison.

## Where do consumer widgets fit?

They fit users buying crypto, not companies paying out. MoonPay lists PIX among its payment methods, which helps a Brazilian user buy stablecoins inside a wallet. The flow assumes that user logs in and passes MoonPay's KYC. A supplier in São Paulo who just wants reais in a bank account is a different customer.

[MoonPay alternatives for business payouts](/resources/more/moonpay-alternatives-business-payouts) covers when to switch models.

## What does one payout in each country look like?

Illustrative example, with invented rates and amounts and no fees shown. A company pays four contractors, each owed the equivalent of 1,000 USDC.

| Country | Rail | Illustrative rate | Recipient gets | Documented timing (BlindPay) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Brazil | Pix | 5.40 BRL per USDC | R$ 5,400.00 | Minutes |
| Mexico | SPEI | 18.50 MXN per USDC | MX$ 18,500.00 | Minutes |
| Argentina | Transfers 3.0 | 1,350 ARS per USDC | AR$ 1,350,000 | Minutes |
| Colombia | ACH Colombia | 3,900 COP per USDC | COL$ 3,900,000 | About 1 business day |

Each row gets its own quote. If the BRL rate moves while you wait, a new quote reprices that row only. Plan the Colombian payout a day earlier than the others. [Pix vs SPEI](/resources/more/pix-vs-spei) compares the two instant rails in more depth.

## What to do next

Pick the two countries you pay most, add one recipient bank account in each on a BlindPay development instance, and request a payout quote with `currency_type: receiver`. Compare the locked `receiver_amount` with what your current provider delivers. The [payout quotes docs](/docs/payout-quotes) show the request.
