How to Get Paid in Colombia with Pandablue: Bre-B, Banks and Payout Times

In Colombia you can get paid with Pandablue in two ways: to your Pandablue Wallet or straight to your bank account, always in pesos. You can get paid to the Wallet from Stripchat, LiveJasmin, Chaturbate and Coomeet. To your bank account, from every platform where Pandablue is a payout method. You can receive through Bre-B, Nequi, Daviplata or bank transfer, without opening a US dollar account.

Why does it pay to understand how your money reaches you?

Colombia is one of the countries with the most webcam models in the world. That means plenty of competition to get paid fast and cheaply, and plenty of middlemen who aren't always clear about their costs. Before choosing who to get paid with, it's worth knowing how long each option takes, what it costs and which currency you receive.

What is Bre-B and why does it matter to you?

Bre-B is the instant payment system created by Colombia's central bank, Banco de la República. It connects banks, digital wallets and cooperatives in a single network, so you can send or receive money between different institutions in seconds, at any time and on any day, including weekends and holidays.

It works with keys. Instead of sharing an account number, you share an easy-to-remember detail linked to your account:

• Your ID number (cédula).
• Your mobile number.
• Your email address.
• An alphanumeric code generated by your bank.

Bre-B is already active in Pandablue's infrastructure. For you, that means payments with real-time confirmation: available money no longer waits for the next business day to reach your bank.

How do I create my Bre-B key?

You create the key from your bank or digital wallet app, and it takes a couple of minutes.

1. Open your bank or wallet app. Most banks and wallets in Colombia, such as Nequi and Daviplata, are already connected to Bre-B.
2. Find the Bre-B or keys section. It is usually in the transfers menu or in your profile.
3. Choose which detail to use as your key: your ID number (cédula), your mobile, your email or the alphanumeric code your bank generates.
4. Confirm the registration by following your app's security steps.
5. Register that key on Pandablue as the place where you want to receive your payouts.

• Each key is linked to a single account, and that account must be in your name.
• If you don't want to share your ID or mobile number, use the alphanumeric code: the account is still in your name, but the key doesn't show your details.

What are my options for getting paid in Colombia?

• Pandablue Wallet: The payment lands in your Wallet. From there you withdraw it to your bank, send it to other Pandas or pay with your Panda Card. Best if you work on Stripchat, LiveJasmin, Chaturbate or Coomeet and want to decide when to move your money. Download the app →
• Direct bank account: The payment reaches your Colombian account when the platform releases it. You can receive through Bre-B, Nequi, Daviplata or bank transfer. Best if you work on any platform where Pandablue is a payout method, or you'd rather not manage a balance. Create your account →
• Through your studio: The studio receives the payment and distributes it to each model from its dashboard. Best if you work with a studio. See how to pay your models →

How long does it take to get paid?

Two times add up: how long the platform takes to release your payment and how long Pandablue takes to get it to you. The first depends on each platform. The second, on the option you choose.

• Stripchat (cutoff on Sunday, pays on Tuesday). To the Wallet: instantly. To your bank account: instantly via Bre-B; depending on your bank, up to 3 days.
• LiveJasmin (every two weeks, two cutoffs a month). To the Wallet: instantly, through the payout link sent to your email. To your bank account: instantly via Bre-B once the platform releases it; depending on your bank, up to 3 days.
• Chaturbate (1st to 15th and 16th to end of month). To the Wallet: 2 to 3 days after the cutoff closes, 50 USD minimum. To your bank account: Chaturbate takes up to 2 days to send the payment, then it arrives instantly via Bre-B or within up to 3 days, depending on your bank.

With Bre-B the payment arrives instantly. If your bank is slow to show it, it can take up to 3 days. We compare the two most used platforms in Chaturbate vs Stripchat: payout timing and method.

How much does it cost to get paid?

With Pandablue or any other processor, there are three costs you should always check:

• The processor's fee. Pandablue's is the same whether you get paid to the Wallet or to your bank account.
• The exchange rate. Platforms pay in dollars or euros and you receive pesos. The difference between the rate you get and the official daily rate (TRM) is also a cost, even if it doesn't show up as a fee.
• What it costs to move your money. Receiving in the Wallet is free. You only pay a fixed fee when you move the money: withdrawing it to your bank, sending it to another Panda or paying with the Panda Card.

Pandablue acts as the intermediary between the platform and you, with no hidden costs.

What should I keep in mind about taxes?

What you earn on platforms is income and, depending on how much you receive in the year, you may have to file an income tax return. Keeping your payments organized in one place makes that much easier. If you have questions about your case, ask an accountant. In January we'll publish a guide with the tax basics for content creators.
