PLIN is a Peruvian instant payment app that lets you send money to anyone using just a mobile phone number. If you have a bank account at BBVA Per\u00fa, Interbank, Scotiabank Per\u00fa, or BCP (through Yape), PLIN is either already available to you or accessible through your bank's mobile app.<\/p>\n\n

For online casino players in Peru, PLIN is one of two major instant payment apps used for casino deposits and withdrawals. The other is Yape, operated by BCP. The two apps serve the same purpose and work in a similar way. Which one you use often depends on which bank you're with.<\/p>\n\n\n

How PLIN Works<\/h2>\n\n

PLIN was launched in 2020 as a joint effort by four of Peru's major banks: BBVA Per\u00fa, Interbank, Scotiabank Per\u00fa, and BCP. The app allows instant money transfers using a registered Peruvian mobile phone number instead of an account number. You don't need to know the recipient's bank or account details. Just their phone number.<\/p>\n\n

To use PLIN, you enable it through your participating bank's mobile app. BBVA Per\u00fa, Interbank, and Scotiabank users access PLIN directly within their existing banking app. BCP customers use Yape, which is BCP's own app and is connected to the PLIN network for interoperability between the platforms.<\/p>\n\n

For casino deposits, the casino provides a phone number associated with their PLIN account. You open your banking app, initiate a PLIN transfer to that number, and confirm in the app. The casino receives the funds instantly and credits your balance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

PLIN vs Yape: What's the Difference?<\/h2>\n\n

PLIN and Yape are the two dominant instant payment apps in Peru, and the comparison comes up constantly for Peruvian casino players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

If you bank with BCP, Yape is your natural starting point because it's BCP's own product. If you bank with BBVA Per\u00fa, Interbank, or Scotiabank Per\u00fa, PLIN is built into your banking app without any separate download. At casinos that support both, either will work. Some casinos list them separately in the cashier; others combine them under a generic \"instant transfer\" option.<\/p>\n\n

How to Deposit at an Online Casino with PLIN<\/h2>\n\n
    \n
  1. \u0412\u043e\u0439\u0434\u0438\u0442\u0435 \u0432 \u0441\u0432\u043e\u0439 \u0430\u043a\u043a\u0430\u0443\u043d\u0442 \u0432 \u043a\u0430\u0437\u0438\u043d\u043e \u0438 \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0439\u0434\u0438\u0442\u0435 \u0432 \u0440\u0430\u0437\u0434\u0435\u043b \"\u041a\u0430\u0441\u0441\u0430\".<\/li>\n
  2. Select PLIN as your deposit method.<\/li>\n
  3. \u0412\u0432\u0435\u0434\u0438\u0442\u0435 \u0441\u0443\u043c\u043c\u0443 \u0434\u0435\u043f\u043e\u0437\u0438\u0442\u0430.<\/li>\n
  4. The casino provides a phone number to send the PLIN transfer to, along with a reference. Note both.<\/li>\n
  5. Open your bank's mobile app and navigate to the PLIN transfer section.<\/li>\n
  6. Enter the casino's phone number as the recipient.<\/li>\n
  7. Enter the exact transfer amount and include the reference in the transfer notes if prompted.<\/li>\n
  8. Confirm the payment. Funds are credited to your casino account instantly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

    Withdrawals via PLIN<\/h2>\n\n

    PLIN supports withdrawals at casinos that have enabled it. The process works in reverse: you provide your registered PLIN mobile number to the casino when requesting a withdrawal, and the casino sends a PLIN transfer to that number. The funds arrive in your bank account instantly once the casino initiates the transfer.<\/p>\n\n

    Casino withdrawal processing times vary. PLIN itself settles instantly, but the casino may have an internal review or processing period before initiating the transfer, typically a few hours to 1 to 2 business days.<\/p>\n\n
