The Federal Government Announced the Payment of R$ 704 via Pix in December, Benefiting Millions of Brazilians
In December 2024, millions of low-income Brazilian families will have access to a joint PIX payment of R$ 704, combining Bolsa Família and Auxílio Gás.
The amount will be made available through the Caixa Tem app, a tool that facilitates the receipt of social benefits with practical and accessible technology.
How Does the R$ 704 PIX Work?
The so-called R$ 704 PIX is the sum of two social benefits. Auxílio Gás guarantees R$ 104 to cover part of the cost of the gas canister. The remainder corresponds to Bolsa Família, with amounts adjusted according to the economic and family situation of the beneficiaries.

Auxílio Gás is intended for those who demonstrate social vulnerability, following the criteria of the program. The amount of Bolsa Família varies according to the family profile and income declared in CadÚnico.
It is important that registration information is always up to date to avoid blocks or delays in receiving the resources.

The inquiry can be made easily through the Caixa Tem app. Here’s how:
