Does anyone know if I can do a money transfer at Oxxo?

I highly recommend using Wise instead of Oxxo. This link gives you a discount.

I think the maximum at Oxxo is quite low. Xoom.com and Wise.com are probably much better choices. Xoom charges a very low commission for transfers under $500. However, their rate of exchange is pretty bad. Wise charges a higher commission but gives you a pretty darned good rate of exchange. I have not use Western Union for many years after they blackballed me for reasons I was never made aware of.
I love walking in El Centro and seeing that boarded up Long Distance / Money Exchange building on Hermenegildo Galeana (sp?). Just imagining what Zihua used to be is quite entertaining.

Pangea is a good option to inexpensively transfer money for either in person pick up at Bodega, Ban Coppel or other Zihua locations or a bank to bank transfer.

I used Oxxo once when I needed cash fast from family abroad. They sent it through Ria Money Transfer, I just walked in, showed my ID, and walked out with pesos in like 10 minutes. Way smoother than I expected.
