Cashaa – Unique Wallet Bringing Crypto Advantages to the Regular Users

Individuals send and receive money around the world almost every second, making it an extremely important industry in the financial sector.

A huge part of global payments is made by transferring money to family or friends across the world especially by individuals who work overseas. This type of payment is known as remittances and is estimated to be a $600 billion dollar industry.

The big problem with sending large amounts of money across countries is that it is extremely expensive and time-consuming. To put it in perspective, remittances usually cost 6% of the total money sent and can go up to 12% in some cases.

An individual sending $1,000 to his family in Africa may potentially pay up to $120 to do so, an amount that is ludicrous in today’s modern world. This situation is happening every day and alternative options like Western Union or PayPal are not solving the problem well either.

Introducing Cashaa

This is the problem Cashaa is solving right now.

How does remittances in Cashaa work?

Cashaa also links cryptocurrency markets and the foreign exchange by matching fiat senders and cryptocurrency traders. By doing this, Cashaa allows individuals to send money all over the world for fees as low as $1.

Traditionally, remittances work based on the currency you’re sending in and the currency of the payment’s destination.

For example, money sent from the UK to India happens by trading GBP to INR which gets expensive once you factor in all the fees associated with the transaction.

Cashaa is also bringing more liquidity to the crypto trading market very uniquely and intelligently. Going with the GBP to INR remittance above, the platform matches your payment request by first finding a cryptocurrency trader who wants to sell bitcoins in exchange for GBP.

Then, the system will find another trader who wants to buy bitcoins with INR which completes the conversion cycle. Finally, the already converted INR will be sent to the receiver almost instantly with very, very low fees attached to the transaction.


This is an ideal situation for both consumers and traders as consumers are satisfied because there will always be demand from cryptocurrency traders for their money which leads to low transfer fees. In case a trading pool does not have enough liquidity, the system is connected to the payment processing network which settles the transaction.

Meanwhile, traders have access to a global market with unparalleled liquidity and trading opportunities for them. Like consumers, traders will also have constant demand as remittances happen every day regardless of the economic situation.
