Who each suits
Daviplata
Who it suits
- Expats in Colombia who want a local account and a remittance wallet in the same app.
- Small businesses that pay and receive through consumer and business transfer routes.
- Readers who want free ATM access and no monthly charge, since the account fee is COP 0.
Who should look elsewhere
- Plazo ES, if you are paid in euros: its monthly fee is €0, and the 2 currencies Daviplata holds may not match your income.
- PayPal Colombia, if a wallet is enough: its monthly fee is $0, while Daviplata adds a bank account and free ATM withdrawals.
- Skrill, if you hold more currencies than the 2 Daviplata covers; its monthly fee is €0, so currency range is the only reason to move.

Questions about each
Daviplata
What does it cost to keep a Daviplata account?+
The monthly fee is COP 0, so keeping the account open costs nothing. Consumer transfers are free on the same schedule. Charges appear on the business side: transfers made through Portal Empresarial and Pyme carry a fee per transfer plus IVA, which is the line to read if you pay suppliers through the app.
Does Daviplata charge for currency conversion?+
The currency conversion fee is 0%, the lowest of the 312 brands compared on that measure. It matters most for expats who receive or hold money in another currency. The account covers 2 currencies, so pairs outside that list need another route.
Imagin
What interest does the Imagin savings account pay?+
The headline rate is 0% and the rate type is variable. That places it 458 across 473 brands ranked on headline rate, so the balance is there for convenience rather than growth.
Is my money protected at Imagin?+
Deposits are covered under EU DGS up to EUR 100,000, the EU guarantee scheme. The provider is listed with Banco de España under licence 2100, so the balance sits inside a supervised scheme in Spain.
