Overview
- ONPE confirmed the one‑time S/165 compensation for polling‑station members who performed their duties in the Regional and Municipal Elections and launched an online registration site after Sunday’s vote.
- Registered members must validate their identity on ONPE’s platform and select a payment method by Wednesday, Oct. 7 to receive a bank deposit or Yape transfer.
- Bank deposits are limited to soles savings accounts at BCP, BBVA or Scotiabank and require the account number; members who do not register or who stepped in without prior selection must collect the cash at any Banco de la Nación branch.
- The S/165 equals 3% of the 2026 Unidad Impositiva Tributaria (UIT, S/5,500) and ONPE says the sum is a civic compensation that does not create a salary or employment link.
- Members who completed ONPE training keep the right to one paid, non‑compensable day off while citizens summoned but absent face a S/275 fine and the online deadline may delay payment for unbanked or rural voters who must travel to Banco de la Nación.
