In countries with high-inflation economies, non-custodial digital wallets offer a more stable alternative to traditional financial systems — and Vesseo’s “digital dollars” solution is growing fast.
By converting local currency into the “digital dollar” USDC stablecoin, Vesseo users can safeguard the value of their money. And because of the app’s non-custodial nature, users’ funds are never shared with third parties.
We worked with Vesseo to scale their Stellar-based wallet, taking their vision of “financial inclusion” to more users all across the world.
With a focus on intuitive user experience, meaningful integrations, security, and control, our collaboration means it’s now easier than ever for users to regain stability across their finances.
Vesseo was ready to take their successful platform to the next level.
Levelling up required greater scalability in the backend, empowering more users in more countries to send, store, and receive funds with total control. They wanted the user experience to be more intuitive and reassuring, designed to work for people with a range of familiarity and confidence with blockchain and cryptocurrency.
Technically, adjustments had to be made to support the business expansion in markets like Argentina, Brazil, and the US. A more seamless integration with anchors was also required, facilitating easier fiat-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat conversions.
As an official Sellar integration partner, Cheesecake Labs and Vesseo were the ideal fit. Our team had all the hands-on experience required to scale the platform while optimizing user experience and furthering their mission of global financial inclusion.
We worked closely with the Vesseo team to optimize the platform and help them achieve their goal of global financial inclusion.
Golang deployed: The backend was enhanced using Golang. Now, it’s ready to handle higher transaction volumes and an increase in user numbers.
Improving the mobile app: React Native was chosen for Vesseo's mobile app, ensuring high performance and accessibility for iOS and Android users.
An inclusive user interface: We revamped Vesseo's user interface for simplicity and accessibility, which are crucial improvements for their financial inclusion goals.
Improved efficiency and uptime: We introduced DevOps practices, ensuring continuous integration and deployment, and boosting operational efficiency and uptime.
MoneyGram integration: Vesseo now integrates with the leading cross-border payments platform, MoneyGram. Users can move cash in and out of USDC at over 100,000 locations worldwide, expanding Vesseo's reach and offering a bridge between the digital and traditional financial ecosystems for users who may not have access to bank accounts.
Stellar SEP30: We implemented Stellar’s SEP-30 protocol to simplify wallet recovery processes without requiring seed phrases, offering greater security and usability.
