Notes

Banco de la Republica marked the first anniversary of Bre-B transfers on 6 October 2026, which places the start of live transfers at 6 October 2025 rather than September 2025 as the record previously stated. Key registration opened before that date, which explains the earlier launch month. The central bank reports that 37 percent of operations use QR codes and 62 percent are for less than 50,000 pesos, with daily activity peaking between 6pm and 7pm. Published daily transaction rates and the one-year total are not consistent with each other and are flagged for review.
