Trying to send money to a friend in Argentina and get this error: We're sorry. We're not able to complete personal payments to account holders in Argentina at this time. I'm only sending $15 usd. How can i get around this?

Hi fatalfox -
Sorry for the difficulty this is causing you. 😞
There wouldn't be any way to 'get around' this as we can't allow personal payments to comply with banking regulations. However, you should be able to send the money as a payment for goods or services. Just keep in mind that there would be a fee charged for your friend to receive it. So plan accordingly. 🙂
Hope this helps!
