REMCO TOKEN
Upik05Introduction
Since the advent of international remittances, much has changed and much has stayed the same.Although current attention is largely being given to purely digital remittance industry disruptors, for the vast majority of senders a physical agent network is very vital to the overall process. Even with the advent of online money transfers, a remittance company cannot be competitive at scale without a good network of agents. Agents help the remittance service providers by providing a public face to senders and recipients of money in their communities. Agents collect money and submit transaction details using the system provided by the remittance organizations; they initiate money transfers.
VTNGLOBAL INC. proposes to reinvent this process. Agents will still be there but their duties will change from their long-standing role of collecting money and sending the value using the system provided by the remittance organizations. Agents will now activate scratchcards in exchange for cash, which behind-thescenes transfers to the purchaser one or more tokens of predefined value. This value is in “digital good funds” ready for onward-transfer to recipients. These “good funds” are different from other forms of payment, such as credit cards, which are subject to reversals and chargebacks, making them probabilistic rather than guaranteed.
With digital good funds on token(s) controlled by the customer, the transfer process moves online and includes the possibility of splitting the total value between multiple recipients. In early pilot testing this has been a very heavily-used feature, a high percentage of purchasers divided the funds among 3 or more recipients.
Since many agents represent more than one remittance company, brand loyalty is a challenge. Many agents simply point customers in the direction of the remittance company that offers them the biggest commission at that time. This creates a promotional roller-coaster in which commodified-services compete.
RemittanceToken is built for these economics and practices. For the agents, first and foremost, the effort to complete a transaction drops 90%. With RemittanceToken there is no money transmission carried out by the agent at retail; there is simply selling a pre-loaded card. No more elaborate paperwork or checking IDs, cashiers simply take cash and activate the cards.
Vision
REMCO designs and provide practical and transformative technology for money transfer, especially cash transfers with the vision to transform the cash-based side of the industry, reward crucial stakeholders and add consumer convenience, control and affordability.
Choose Remco
The REMCO Token solution is built using Multichain, and it includes a self-service B2B platform that not only allows money transmitters to enjoy the advantages of DLT using their existing cash-in networks, but to expand their networks by riding REMCOs reinvented processes for street corner agents.
PROBLEM
Money transmitters have few and limited options for building and expanding their business on another’s rails.
Slow Speeds
Traditional money transfer is slow for both money transmitters and their customers. New blockchain approaches are slower than many existing centralized systems.
High costs
Many corridors remain very costly, and pricing for small-value transfers is foolish. Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies require miner compensation, are inefficient and can’t scale.
Vanishing commissions
Stakeholders in the cash-based money transfer processes are increasingly frustrated by more work for less pay, leading to less participation and fewer consumer options.
Tough entry
Conventional platforms have entry barriers that are too high for affiliate networks; REMCO addresses this shortcoming.
Unstable operation
A technical failure can paralyze all affiliate networks on a centralized platform, until the cause is detected and rectified.
REMCO PLATFORM
Options for money transmitters to build their business with technology that fits their use cases and addresses their pain points using programmable tokens that can run on the rails of our global platform for remittance.
Scalable
REMCO uses a blockchain on which transactions essentially self-verify, providing the speed needed to ramp up.
Decentralized
REMCO runs on a distributed ledger technology known as a Multichain blockchain.
Lower costs
Our solution does not involve miners to verify transactions, and be paid. Even micropayments can be made affordably!
Security
REMCO Tokens are thought to be quantum-proof, though this is subject to additional scrutiny and study.
Re-engineered Process at Cash Agents
The REMCO Prepaid solution requires less time to sell than present methods, offers bonus commissions and gives tremendous control and value to the customer. Data analytics allow aggregation from multiple networks.

RemittanceToken: Technical Details
The RemittanceToken operates on a private permissioned network using a programmable token to transfer money leveraging on direct API connections with the destination banks and mobile wallets in various jurisdictions. The system allows pre-authorized partners to generate tokens on the network for distribution to end users or their agents. These tokens can be programmed with various denominations and currencies and buyers/senders will use a mobile or online app to initiate the money transfer, thus the sender will perform the actual transfer.
A system diagram is presented in Fig. 1, and a sequence diagram is shown in Fig. 2. The system will route the order to the remittance organization for fulfillment, transparently and in real time. The system further provides both parties real-time knowledge of the token value and usage throughout the life span of the token.
REMCO Token
VTNGlobal has processed over $700,000,000 in the last 2 years and we clearly see the opportunity of process reengineering combined with distributed ledger technology to make a big impact in the industry. We have designed the REMCO Token to have tremendous utility and to be programmable, such as where a remittance partner wishes to offer a promotion.
By both creating the tech platform and offering a B2B self-service option, VTNGLOBAL believes the REMCO Token can have transformational effects, not only for its own businesses but for partners as well.
Through this ICO we will have the necessary funds to finance our project, pay salaries, cover marketing and legal matter expenses and invest in research and development, and offer buyers of REMCO Remittance Tokens a low and discounted price.
