Mexico's money landscape, in brief
Currency
Transfers into Mexico land in Mexican peso (MXN), so the exchange rate you lock in and the fees quoted up front are what decide how much actually arrives.
How transfers settle
SPEI is Mexico's instant interbank transfer system, available 24/7 with per-transaction limits set by each bank. STP is an alternative private rail used by some fintechs. That matters for a transfer sent from Mérida: a provider that delivers onto the local rail typically clears faster than a routed correspondent-bank wire.
Recipient details
Mexican accounts use an 18-character CLABE for interbank transfers (bank code, branch, account, check digit); SPEI transfers also accept a phone number or alias registered to the account. Getting these recipient details exactly right is the difference between a same-day delivery and a bounced-back transfer.
Regulation
Payments in Mexico are overseen by the Banco de México / CNBV. Financial technology institutions (ITFs) in Mexico must be registered with the CNBV under the Fintech Law. Check the CNBV registry before holding funds with a provider.
