How do I send money to the Dominican Republic?

Message MAJORITY on WhatsApp with nothing to download, or open the MAJORITY app and select Money transfers. A guided chat or the app takes you through it: choose the Dominican Republic, enter your amount, add your recipient’s details, and pick bank deposit, cash pickup, or a Billet wallet transfer. You see the live USD-to-DOP rate, the delivery estimate, and any fee before you confirm.

How much does it cost to send money to the Dominican Republic?

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.

Should I send money to the Dominican Republic with WhatsApp or the MAJORITY app?

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

Is it safe to send money to the Dominican Republic on WhatsApp?

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.

Do I need a Social Security Number to send money to the Dominican Republic?

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 the Dominican Republic. 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.

How long does a transfer to the Dominican Republic take?

It depends on the method. Bank deposits usually arrive within a few hours, and most land the same day. Cash pickup takes longer: most transfers are ready within a day. Transfers to a Billet mobile wallet are usually there within the hour. You see the delivery estimate for your chosen method before you confirm.

Where can my family receive the money in the Dominican Republic?

Three ways. A bank deposit to their account at Banreservas, Banco BHD, Banco Popular Dominicano, Asociación Popular de Ahorros y Préstamos (APAP), or Asociación Cibao de Ahorros y Préstamos. Cash pickup at a Caribe Express location. Or a transfer to Billet, the BHD mobile wallet. Bank deposit, cash pickup, and mobile wallet are the three options in the Dominican Republic today. Confirm your recipient’s bank or pickup point in the app before you send, because available options can change.

What do I need from my recipient to send money to the Dominican Republic?

For a bank deposit: their full name as it appears on their ID, their account number at a Dominican bank, and their cédula, the 11-digit national ID number every Dominican adult carries. A passport number is accepted in its place. For cash pickup: their full name and their phone number. They collect cash with a valid government-issued photo ID and the pickup code you share with them. For a Billet wallet transfer: their full name and the phone number registered to the wallet.

What exchange rate do I get for USD to DOP?

You get the live USD-to-DOP 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 Dominican pesos 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.

How much can I send to the Dominican Republic?

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.
