Executive summary
Opportunity
Payment wallets are one of the fastest growing industries within the fintech ecosystem. The global mobile wallet market was valued at USD 7.42 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 28.3% from 2023 to 2030.
Problem statement
Most mobile payment wallets currently penetrating the market are based on the tradfi infrastructure: electronic money institution (EMI) licence + deep integration with VISA/MasterCard networks. This makes entering the market complex, expensive and time-consuming.
Proposed solution
Instead of building a wallet by acquiring an EMI licence and integrating with tradfi payment systems, we use existing crypto building blocks, including stablecoins, a crypto payment processor, and fiat on/off ramps. By connecting these building blocks, a brand-new mobile payment wallet can be shipped in a very short time.
Competitors
We are currently aware of only three projects doing this: airtm.com and Decaf in the US, littio.co in LatAm and stables.money in Australia. Each of them has its drawbacks, and only Airtm and Decaf have fiat on/off ramp capability in the EU. None of them operate in the Polkadot ecosystem.
Electrocoin&rsquo;s solution
Electrocoin is a crypto/fiat on/off ramp from Zagreb, Croatia. We have existed for over 10 years, with a team of 30 people, and this year we processed &euro;60M. We have the building blocks available:
<ul>
<li>mobile crypto wallet app - in development, currently seeking a grant</li>
<li>an EUR stablecoin with EMI licence - currently 3 existing: EURC, EUROe and EURe</li>
<li>crypto/bank on/off ramp - our own Electrocoin Trade (<a href="https://electrocoin.eu/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://electrocoin.eu/en</a>) with 40,000 users </li>
<li>crypto/cash on/off ramp - our partner network (<a href="https://electrocoin.eu/en/cash-locations">https://electrocoin.eu/en/cash-locations</a>)</li>
<li>crypto payment processor - our own PayCek (<a href="https://paycek.io">https://paycek.io</a>) with 3,500 locations </li>
<li>physical card - currently integrating with HolyHeld&rsquo;s onchain debit card (MasterCard)</li>
</ul>
Key features
<ul>
<li>Instant Onboarding: Users can send and receive funds before completing KYC, streamlining the user experience.</li>
<li>Seamless Payments: Users can make payments at over 3,500 points of sale, as well as peer-to-peer transactions, with minimal fees.</li>
<li>Fiat and Cash Connectivity: KWIT integrates with Electrocoin's existing infrastructure, providing easy bank transfers, card top-ups, and cash withdrawals.</li>
</ul>
Product launch strategy
Electrocoin has existing relationships with all the biggest mobile payment wallet user bases in Croatia: shops (retail chains, web shops), cash locations (kiosks, petrol stations), gambling industry (casinos, bookmakers). From day one, wallet can be used on more than 3,500 points of sale to buy virtually anything in Croatia. Electrocoin on its own has 40,000 existing brokerage users and 500 merchants with 3,500 locations.
Benefits for Polkadot ecosystem
<ul>
<li>Real-world Adoption: KWIT will drive the use of Polkadot for everyday payments, increasing transaction volume and network activity.</li>
<li>Technological Showcase: KWIT demonstrates the power and versatility of the Polkadot blockchain for real-world applications.</li>
<li>EUR Stablecoin Integration: KWIT will facilitate the introduction of a compliant EUR stablecoin to the Polkadot ecosystem.</li>
<li>Brand Awareness: KWIT's marketing campaign will highlight its "powered by Polkadot" status, increasing visibility and recognition.</li>
</ul>

`amount` of `asset_kind` in the native asset. The amount of `asset_kind` is converted
for assertion using the [`Config::BalanceConverter`].

## Details

- `amount`: The amount to be transferred from the treasury to the `beneficiary`.
- `beneficiary`: The beneficiary of the spend.
- `valid_from`: The block number from which the spend can be claimed. It can refer to
  the past if the resulting spend has not yet expired according to the
  [`Config::PayoutPeriod`]. If `None`, the spend can be claimed immediately after
  approval.

## Events
