In 2023, MoneyGram started searching for an app development company with deep expertise in [Stellar blockchain](https://cheesecakelabs.com/blog/stellar-network/) who could help them create a non-custodial wallet from scratch.

That&apos;s where we came in! The Cheesecake Labs team was uniquely positioned to tackle this challenge thanks to our status as a preferred integration partner for the Stellar network.

MoneyGram wanted to develop an app that would directly connect senders and receivers while expanding MoneyGram&apos;s reach into new markets where their MGO app had no existing presence.

The goal was to create an intuitive and secure app for users who weren&apos;t tech- or crypto-savvy, which would make it easier than ever for users to send funds to their loved ones.

We kicked off with an intensive [product definition phase](https://cheesecakelabs.com/blog/building-app-phase-1-product-definition/), where our technical leadership worked on-site in Dallas alongside MoneyGram executives and [Stellar Development Foundation (SDF)](https://stellar.org/foundation) leaders.

This allowed us to deeply understand MoneyGram&apos;s existing infrastructure and define the necessary integrations and key [MVP](https://cheesecakelabs.com/blog/mvp-meaning/) features.
