Movistar recharge from the US usually means sending credit to a family member's Movistar phone back home, rather than topping up your own line. doctorSIM recharges Movistar in 11 countries, and Colombia is the network sent to most from the US among those covered here.
Countries where you can recharge Movistar
From the US you can recharge Movistar Colombia, the most requested Movistar network on this page. Elsewhere in Latin America there's also Movistar Mexico, Movistar Argentina, Movistar Chile, Movistar Peru and Movistar Ecuador, plus Costa Rica, El Salvador, Uruguay and Venezuela. In Europe, doctorSIM also recharges Movistar Spain.
Sending to the right Movistar country
Movistar Colombia and Movistar Mexico share a name and the same parent company, but they run as separate networks, so the recharge has to go through the page for the country the SIM is actually in, not the US. All you need is the phone number; the recipient doesn't have to do anything to receive it.
