  The benefits of using such a digital solution must be published and made more aware to public in general!! Helps in avoiding the card payments rails and the interchange fees thereby. But with any solution, i presume will have it own challenges to overcome!!!
Programmable money startup Pave Bank moves out of stealth

  I think Programmable banking is the future of banking, blend that capability with the rapid developments in AI and you can soon see the end of banks having to provide PSD2/Open Banking type API specifications, simply because integrators can simply program that capability directly into the bank core....There are so many benefits to this over the rather dated approach of APIs and tokens used for granting third party access. Pave also shows that, any form of digital money is programmable, including FIAT. It's not just about programming the asset, its about programming how it is held, and what you want to do with it, including access - thats a programmable personal bank. Massive congratulations to the team, its a fantastic advancement in finance....
