🇨🇴 Colombia Acyvalores Payment Integration Guide

Acyvalores is introduced as a cash collection and top-up agent network channel in Colombia. However, since public information on its nationwide coverage and its operating status as an online checkout method is limited, this page is not a confirmed integration guide but an informational one covering what to verify before considering it.

When to consider Acyvalores payments in Colombia

In Colombia, cash-based payments are best represented by nationwide collection networks like Efecty and Baloto, alongside numerous regional collection and top-up agent networks. Acyvalores is classified in this collection-agent category, but since its collection point scale, regional distribution, and online payment integration status aren't sufficiently confirmed by public sources, a cautious approach is warranted.

Merchants considering a cash collection channel should first anchor their approach with Efecty and Baloto, which have verified coverage, and treat Acyvalores as a possible addition only after confirming its actual collection points and integration terms when a specific region needs reinforcement.

Basic flow of Colombia Acyvalores payments

If it follows the same structure as typical collection-agent payments, a payment code would be issued when the online order is placed, and the order would be confirmed once the consumer pays in cash at a partner agent location and the deposit is verified. However, since verified public information on Acyvalores' actual integration method and confirmation time is limited, availability needs to be confirmed with Hecto Financial before considering adoption.

Hecto Financial's Acyvalores coverage

Whether Acyvalores is supported at all is itself something that needs confirmation. It's recommended to first confirm integration support status and collection coverage through a consultation with Hecto Financial, and then review the terms (settlement cycle, fees, currency options).

※ This section describes the general support process and does not guarantee that integration is possible for any specific merchant. Please confirm the exact scope of support and fees through a consultation.

What to check before applying and integrating

  • Business registration country

    Confirm contract eligibility for businesses registered in Korea

  • Sales channel

    The integration method and priority vary depending on your online sales channel mix — own site, open marketplace, mobile app, etc.

  • Product category

    You must confirm the existence, point coverage, and online integration support of Acyvalores' collection network during the evaluation stage

  • Local regulatory compliance

    Confirm compliance with Colombia's payment and foreign exchange regulations (under the jurisdiction of Banco de la República and the SFC) (see official sources below)

Settlement currency, cycle, and refund terms

If support is confirmed, the settlement structure is the same as for other Colombian methods. Hecto Financial receives the collected funds in COP, converts them, and pays out in whichever currency — USD, KRW, or JPY — is set in the contract. As with other cash collection methods, there is no automatic refund path, so the refund process must be defined separately in the contract.

Colombia Acyvalores payment FAQ

QCan we accept payments through Acyvalores right now?
This page was written on the premise that support and coverage as an online payment channel have not been confirmed. Actual availability needs to be checked through a consultation for the latest support status.
QHow is it different from Efecty and Baloto?
Efecty and Baloto are leading cash collection networks with verified nationwide coverage, while Acyvalores is introduced as a collection and top-up agent network but has limited information on scale and distribution. A verified network is recommended as the core of a cash payment strategy.
QIf it is supported, how does settlement work?
As with other Colombian methods, funds are received in COP, converted, and settled in whichever currency — USD, KRW, or JPY — is selected under the contract.
QWhy is this kind of verification necessary?
Collection agent networks often see frequent changes in partnership scope and operating status by provider, and whether enough collection points are actually available to consumers determines whether adoption succeeds. It's safer to request proof of coverage before contracting.
