About
Bre-B is Colombia's interoperable instant-payment system, built and administered by the central bank, Banco de la República, and launched in the second half of 2025. Users register a 'llave' (key), such as their ID number, mobile number, email, a random alphanumeric code or, for merchants, a commercial code, in their bank or wallet app; anyone at any participating bank or cooperative can then pay that key or scan a Bre-B QR code. Funds arrive in seconds, 24/7, up to COP 12.11 million per transfer in 2026. By 30 June 2026 Bre-B had 108 million registered keys, 35 million users and 1.07 billion accumulated transactions.
