Execute & Settle
Bitwage locks the FX rate, converts, and routes via Bank Transfer. You get a settlement confirmation for every payment.
Compliance Notes
Peru requires foreign income declaration with SUNAT (Superintendencia Nacional de Aduanas y de Administración Tributaria). Bitwage screens all payments against OFAC lists.
FX Considerations
The PEN is a relatively stable currency. Bitwage locks the USD/PEN rate at execution to protect against intraday volatility.
