How USDC Works in Argentina
Bitwage converts your USD funding into USDC, routes it on-chain to the contractor's wallet address, and generates an immutable transaction receipt. The contractor can hold USDC or convert to ARS via a local exchange.
Compliance & Security
Argentina requires contractors to declare foreign income and register with AFIP (tax authority). Bitwage handles OFAC screening on every outbound payment.
Argentina has strict official currency controls (cepo cambiario). USDC payments bypass the official exchange rate and give contractors access to a dollar-pegged store of value at the parallel market rate.
