How to create your CVU/Alias

  3. Tap Get Argentinian CVU.
  4. Review the terms and conditions.

How to find your CVU/Alias later

Updating your Alias

A default Alias is generated automatically when your CVU is created. You can change it:

  • The first change can be made right away.
  • After that, you must wait 24 hours between each change.
  • Alias format: 3 to 20 characters, letters (A to Z, a to z), numbers (0 to 9), and one optional period (.) to separate parts of the name.

Frequently asked questions

Can I delete my CVU/Alias?
No. Once created, your CVU/Alias is permanent. You can update your Alias, but the CVU itself cannot be removed.

I see "CVU unavailable." What does that mean?
If your Airtm account status changes due to a compliance review, access to your CVU/Alias is temporarily suspended. Contact support and we'll help you from there.

I was expecting a deposit but it hasn't arrived.
Deposits are processed automatically once the sender completes the transfer. If funds don't appear within a reasonable time, contact support with the transaction details from the sender's side.

Can I use my CVU/Alias to send money, or only to receive?
Only to receive. Your CVU/Alias is an inbound payment address. To send money, use Airtm's standard withdrawal options.
