<Callout icon="⚠️" theme="warn">
  **Important Security Rule for Chile:**

  For security reasons, most Chilean banks enforce a **24-hour waiting period** after the first successful transfer to a new recipient. A second transfer to the same recipient can only be initiated after this period has elapsed. Subsequent transfers do not have this waiting time
</Callout>

<Callout theme="default">
  **Deprecated Authentication Methods:**

  Note that methods like **DigiCard** (Banco de Chile) and **MultiPass** (BCI) are being phased out by the banks. Most customers now use **DigiPass/Mi Pass** or **BciPass**. Always guide your payers to use their bank's primary, up-to-date authentication app.
