Bolsa Família cards serve as a passport to the monthly benefit provided by the Federal Government. Stay tuned!
Through Caixa Tem, Caixa makes Bolsa Família available to millions of Brazilians who are part of this important social program. To make it easier to use, the state-owned bank provides specialized assistance in specific areas of the country and distributes the card that grants access to the benefit.
This Monday (10), strategically, it was Boa Vista's turn to receive the cards in Roraima. This action is part of the agreement established between Caixa and the Ministry of Social Development, whose purpose is to provide assistance in the states of Roraima and Amazonas.

With the aim of serving Indigenous peoples, Caixa is carrying out the action through a mobile branch. The initiative, which began this Monday, will continue until July 28, seeking to address any questions and demands from the population related to access to the account.
Bolsa Família cards
Bolsa Família beneficiaries, in turn, use the cards to receive the benefit at bank branches, lottery outlets or Caixa Aqui correspondents. With this card in hand, beneficiaries can withdraw the amounts made available each month.
This process democratizes access to the benefit, considering that not all citizens served have access to the internet to use Caixa Tem. However, those who do can manage the benefit amount free of charge.
Benefit debit card
Currently, the card delivered to Brazilians comes with a debit function. During in-person assistance to Indigenous people, Caixa employees register a PIN for the card and guide beneficiaries on its use. It is important to remember that the card can also be used as a Savings account.
