In addition, the Central Government warns that the real and original application must be confirmed by the developer and people who wish to download the application will be able to download it for free from the digital stores of Android, iOS and Huawei operating systems.

Salvadorans who download Chivo Wallet should take into account the following:

When the user searches for Chivo Wallet in the digital store of their choice, the legend "Gobierno de El Salvador" must be written, next to the image or logo of the application, without punctuation or exclamation marks.

Thus, applications that are promoted as Chivo or with similar names before september 7, are not endorsed by the Government and may expose the person to theft of money, so the population is warned not to be fooled by these strategies of manipulation and misinformation.
