How to top up WOM and Entel Chile with crypto
WOM and Entel are two of Chile's main mobile carriers. WOM and Entel are both available on the Chile mobile top-up page on Cryptorefills using USDT, USDC, SOL, BTC on Lightning, or any of the other supported coins. Enter the Chilean number in international format, select the denomination and carrier, pay with crypto, and the credit is applied to the number within minutes. A delivery email is the only requirement.
How to enter a Chilean mobile number correctly
Chilean mobile numbers follow the format +56 followed by a 9 and then eight digits. The domestic format typically shows a leading zero before the 9 (e.g. 09 XXXX XXXX), which must be removed when using international format. The correct format for Cryptorefills is +56 9XXXXXXXX with no spaces or hyphens.
Both WOM and Entel numbers follow the same format. The carrier is identified by the prefix digits after the 9, though number portability in Chile means the prefix alone is not always reliable, if you are unsure whether a number is on WOM or Entel. Confirm with the recipient before placing the order.
WOM or Entel, which to choose
WOM entered the Chilean market in 2015 as a mobile carrier and built market share on competitive prepaid rates and data-heavy plans. It is the dominant choice among younger and more price-sensitive users. Entel is the longest-established carrier with the widest geographic coverage, particularly outside major urban centres. If the recipient travels frequently in rural areas or southern Chile, Entel's coverage advantage matters. For urban Santiago users, the difference is minimal.
The top-up process on Cryptorefills is the same for both. Select the carrier that matches the recipient's active SIM.
Which crypto to use for Chilean top-ups
For top-ups under $20, USDT on Tron and BTC on Lightning are the most cost-effective options, both carry transaction fees below $0.01. USDC on Solana is a practical alternative for Solana wallet holders. For amounts above $50, the fee difference between networks becomes less significant and any supported coin works well.
Step-by-step: top up WOM or Entel Chile with crypto
Step 1. Go to the Chile mobile top-up page on Cryptorefills and select WOM or Entel from the carrier list.
Step 2. Enter the recipient's number in international format: +56 followed by 9 and the eight subscriber digits, with no leading zero.
Step 3. Select the denomination.
Step 4. Choose your coin and network. Copy the exact payment amount shown, rounding or approximating the figure will cause the order to remain pending until the payment window expires.
Step 5. Send the payment. The top-up is applied to the number within minutes of on-chain confirmation. An email confirmation is sent to the address provided at checkout.
What happens if the top-up does not arrive
If the credit has not appeared within 30 minutes of on-chain payment confirmation, contact Cryptorefills support with the transaction hash and order number. If you are unsure how to find the transaction hash, it is in the transaction history of the wallet used to send the payment.
The mobile top-up number guide covers the international number format for all LATAM carriers and the most common errors to avoid when entering a number for the first time.
Frequently asked questions
Can I top up a Chilean WOM or Entel number from outside Chile?
Yes. Cryptorefills processes international top-ups. Enter the number in international format (+56 followed by 9 and the subscriber digits, no leading zero), select the correct carrier, and the top-up is applied regardless of where you are located when you place the order.
How do I know if a number is on WOM or Entel?
Number portability in Chile means the number prefix is not always a reliable indicator of the current carrier. The most reliable method is to ask the recipient which carrier their SIM is currently registered with. Sending a WOM top-up to an Entel number, or vice versa, will result in the credit going to the wrong carrier account.
Which coin is cheapest for a small Chilean top-up?
USDT on Tron and BTC on Lightning both carry fees below $0.01 per transaction, making them the most cost-effective for small amounts. USDC on Solana is also low-cost. Ethereum mainnet is not recommended for top-up amounts under $30 due to gas fees.
How long does the top-up take to arrive?
Most top-ups are applied to the number within minutes of payment confirmation. Tron and Solana confirm in under a minute; BTC on Lightning is near-instant. If the credit has not arrived within 30 minutes, contact Cryptorefills support with the transaction hash and order number.
Can I top up other Chilean carriers on Cryptorefills?
The Chile catalog page shows all available carriers for your location.
What if I select the wrong carrier?
If the top-up is sent to the correct number but the wrong carrier is selected, the credit may be applied to a different carrier account than intended or the transaction may fail. Contact Cryptorefills support immediately with the order number. Whether the credit can be recovered depends on how the carrier processed the transaction.
