SEND MONEY TO BRAZIL

Open the MAJORITY app and select Money transfers, then choose Brazil. Or message MAJORITY on WhatsApp with nothing to download. Enter your amount, add your recipient’s name and CPF, and send by Pix to their Pix key, or as a bank transfer to their account. You see the live USD-to-BRL rate, the delivery estimate, and any fee before you confirm.

With a MAJORITY membership ($6.99/month), you send with a $0 transfer fee. Without a membership, sending on WhatsApp costs a flat $1.99 per transfer. Either way, you see the exchange rate and any fee before you confirm. MAJORITY earns money on the foreign exchange rate on all transfers. Additional fees may apply if cash-pickup is selected, or the receiving country imposes additional taxes or fees.

Both work, and the difference is price and setup. With a membership in the app you send to Brazil with a $0 transfer fee, and you get your full MAJORITY account, saved recipients, and your transfer history in one place. On WhatsApp you pay $1.99 per transfer with nothing to download and no ID to upload, so it suits a one-off transfer. In both cases you see the rate and any fee before you confirm.

Yes. You send through MAJORITY, an authorized money transfer service, not a person-to-person payment to a stranger. Transfers are encrypted and handled by licensed partners, and you confirm the amount and the rate before the money is sent. Money transfer services are not FDIC insured.

No SSN required. You open your MAJORITY account with a passport or other approved government-issued ID and proof of US residency, then send money to Brazil. On WhatsApp there’s no ID to upload: you confirm a few personal details and your identity is verified as you send. Additional onboarding questions may apply for customers with no SSN.

Most transfers to Brazil arrive within a few hours, and almost all arrive within a day. Pix transfers usually arrive within a few hours of you confirming. Bank transfers usually arrive within a day. You see the delivery estimate before you confirm.

By Pix, straight to their Pix key, or as a bank transfer to their account. Banks and payment apps that receive transfers include Nubank, Banco Bradesco, Mercado Pago, Banco do Brasil, and Caixa Econômica Federal. Pix is a delivery method run by the Banco Central do Brasil, not a bank, so your family gives you a Pix key rather than an account at Pix. Pix and bank transfer are the two ways money arrives in Brazil today, and it arrives in Brazilian reais. Confirm your recipient’s details in the app before you send, because available options can change.

Their full name as it appears on their ID, and their CPF, the 11-digit Brazilian taxpayer number. For Pix: their Pix key, which can be their CPF, their email address, their phone number, or a random key their bank generates. For a bank transfer: their bank and their account number. The CPF is the one detail to check twice, because it identifies your recipient on both methods.

You get the live USD-to-BRL rate shown in the app or the WhatsApp chat at the moment you send, and you see it before you confirm along with any fee and the exact amount in Brazilian reais your family receives. Rates move during the day, so the number you see at confirmation is the one that applies. MAJORITY earns money on the foreign exchange rate on all transfers.

You see your available limit in the app or in the WhatsApp chat before you send, and it depends on your account, how long you have been with MAJORITY, and the details you have verified. Transfer limits apply and vary per user.
