Beneficiaries who prefer to avoid the queues to receive the monthly installment from the Bolsa Família can transfer their benefit amounts through The Caixa Team app. The tool is free and makes it easy to access a digital account in families’ daily lives.
In this way, beneficiaries can receive and send money through Pix, recharge their mobile phones, get insurance, save money, pay bills and vouchers, pay in the device, get loans and even withdraw the installment without the card, through a code generated in the app.
In addition to these functions, a virtual debit card is also issued, with which you can make purchases online, pay for purchases made in the delivery or video and music application, and also transfer money via WhastApp.
The app is compatible with almost all mobile devices. In addition, it is also inclusive and provides accessibility for people with disabilities (PwD).
Where does Bolsa Familia pull off in 2023?
Those who prefer to use physical money can withdraw amounts at the following locations: Caixa branches, banking or advanced service points, self-service terminals, mobile units, lottery units and Caixa Aqui correspondents.
To be able to withdraw money, you must provide an official document with a photo. Bolsa Família transfers are made monthly according to the confirmed payment date in the deposit calendar.
It is not necessary to open a bank account to receive benefits. If the family registration in CadÚnico contains complete information and the correct CPF data for the responsible family, a digital social savings account will be opened automatically, and this is where the monthly payments for benefits are deposited.
This account has no maintenance cost or fees. However, if the data in the registration is insufficient, a simple account will be opened for the payment of the allowance.
