Transfermóvil, one of the quintessential applications in Cuba for making payments and other banking operations, arrives this month with two great news, the first, that on February 10 it celebrated its seven years of creation and development in constant growth, and this Friday the 18th, which just reached the figure of 3 million registered users.
Said platform, a product of the Telecommunications Company of Cuba SA (Etecsa), reaches this figure once again as “leader of electronic commerce” on the island, according to the company on its official website. “On average, every 1 second, 22 operations are carried out by Transfermóvil and around 55 million operations are handled per month,” they added.
Tania Velázquez, Executive President of Etecsa, published on her Twitter account last Friday afternoon, «We are already 3 million users in #Transfermóvil. Our thanks to the work team for their commitment to the development of electronic commerce and the digital transformation of the country.”

Among the benefits it offers, «Transfermóvil today, not only represents the contribution of our company to electronic commerce and the country’s socioeconomic development and computerization policies; It also constitutes an electronic payment tool that has gained special significance since the start of the pandemic, due to its contribution to physical distancing,” Etecsa said in its official note.
As we had previously reported on our portal, the application is committed to facilitating various actions from the comfort of a mobile device and without the need for face-to-face activities, which means saving time. Thus, if before it was already a privilege to check card balances, make transfers and pay utility bills, now it is to be able to buy fuel coupons and stamps to pay taxes.
