Cashaa - The Next Generation Banking Platform for the Next Billion

Abstract

Cashaa is creating a better bank, challenging legacy banking by building an app and products with input from our community of users. Our blockchain based platform enables its community to store, save, spend, receive, borrow and get insured, with a simplified user experience in a legally compliant way. Ultimately, Cashaa aims to become a one-stop-shop for financial needs. Together with Master Card Service Provider we have built the world's first wallet that enables our user to store or transfer money to any card in the world. The sender and the receiver transact in the local currency and needs no awareness of cryptocurrencies or blockchain technology. Money in the Cashaa wallet will move faster and easier than cryptocurrencies, receivers will be able to get the money within 30 minutes in their local currency to any card, bank account or wallet in the world in our network.
