Caja Sullana is a regional savings and credit institution that originated in Sullana, in Peru's northern Piura region. However, because Peru's regional Caja sector has seen fluctuations in individual institutions' operating conditions, this method should only be considered for adoption after confirming the institution's current operating status and whether an online collection partnership exists.
Sullana is an inland agricultural and commercial hub city in the Piura region, and local Cajas have long handled household finance for the export agriculture economy centered on bananas, mangoes, and similar crops. Payment habits across Peru are rapidly digitalizing with the fast growth of the Yape and Plin wallets, but reliance on cash remains fairly high in smaller cities in the north. At the same time, Peru's regional Caja sector has seen reports of financial soundness issues at some institutions in recent years, so individual institution channels require a status check beforehand.
This method serves the narrow purpose of reinforcing coverage of cash-paying customers in the Sullana area. If broader coverage of the north is the actual goal, we recommend comparing it against Caja Paita and Norandino in the same region and the nationwide KasNet network, and opening whichever channel has a confirmed partnership first.
Only once both the institution's operations and the collection partnership are confirmed does the flow become: pay in cash at the counter using the reference code issued at the time of the online order, and the order is confirmed once payment is verified. Because this channel requires more items to confirm before integration than other methods, be sure to check the institution's status, collecting branches, and confirmation lead time together during consultation with Hecto Financial.
Integrating through Hecto Financial allows a merchant registered in Korea to explore adopting Caja Sullana payments without a separate local contract in Peru. Actual support availability and terms (settlement cycle, fees, currency options) vary depending on the merchant's industry and transaction volume, so confirmation with the Hecto Financial sales team is required before contracting.

Where adoption is viable, settlement follows the common structure used across Peru: the payment amount collected locally in PEN is converted and paid out in the currency selected under contract among USD, KRW, or JPY, with no settlement offered in Peruvian Sol itself. Rules for refunds and unpaid transactions are also fixed in the contract terms.
