KABN
With my research, I found this project in which I really put my faith: KABN. Very likely you haven’t heard about them, project is made by great team members. Nevertheless, guys have an advantage, many other teams does not: already existing product made on a very perspective field. But these are not all pluses I found in this project. Below you can read the analysis and decide on your own, do you want to send some pennies to the pot.
Introduction
The following review, is a detailed summary and analysis about the KABN Project. This will be helpful for everyone who wants to learn more and get an objective view about the KABN Project.
The KABN Network is an integrated suite of financial services that includes the Pegasus Flyte Visa Card, an approved crypto-linked prepaid Visa card and mobile integrated multi-currency banking wallet; KABN KASH, a robust loyalty and engagement program and the network anchor, KABN ID, a patent pending, Always On, GDPR complaint, blockchain and biometrically based, identity verification and validation platform. KABN ID is free to use service for consumers and provides continuous monitoring and proof of identity online and in conventional marketplaces.
KABN supports internationally recognized documents for Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations. In addition, for issuers of private or early stage assets, KABN provides qualification for investors in the United States and Canada, and source of wealth verification for investors in Europe. To date, KABN has screened individuals in the following countries: Armenia, Australia, Bangladesh, Belarus, Canada, Ecuador, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Latvia, Malaysia, Nigeria, Philippines, Romania, Russian Federation, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, United States of America and Vietnam. Other countries will be added as they come on board. Customers on the KABN network receive ongoing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) monitoring and requests to confirm or update personal information that is expired or out of date. Financial technology startups can outsource this operational burden at no extra charge.
Issuers and financial technology startups operating at a global scale are required to comply with United States banking regulations. Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations involve managing private and sensitive personal customer information and the third-party verification of these documents. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations require screening and monitoring participants against international sanctions, politically exposed persons flags (PEP), and adverse media lists. Issuers and startups must additionally comply with European regulations around data privacy and source of funds. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires all technology services, encompassing financial technology services, to give users the ability to retrieve all personal data and the right-to-be-forgotten. Management has determined that existing compliance and customer onboarding is often manual, time-intensive, and costly. In-house compliance programs are typically inadequate and/or data gathered is incomplete, inaccurate or unverified. Third-party services and compliance experts may be too expensive for issuers that are required to perform compliance in order to raise capital.
For transactions related to international blockchain-based offerings, many issuers are unfamiliar with global regulations outside of their jurisdiction. In some cases, issuers do not comply with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations and have improperly sold tokens into the US market without an exemption to registration. Over the course of 2018 the SEC significantly increased the scope and instances of repercussions, often forcing issuers to return all funds to investors, sometimes resulting in charges and convictions. In today's market, compliance has become central to any business attempting to raise funds.
KABN Ecosystem
Friction Free Global ID: KABN ID powers your Digital Twin with a Friction Free and Always On, no cost 24/7/365 verified ID service for online and other services.
Loyalty & Rewards: The Pegasus Flyte program will also offer a no-cost, robust loyalty and engagement platform called KABN KASH.
Features of the Platform
KABN Card: KABN has been approved to issue a reloadable prepaid Visa card starting in Europe in Q1-Q2 2019 and intends to expand to other jurisdictions. Each consumer customer who is screened and passes the KYC/AML on the KABN platform is eligible to receive a KABN-issued Visa card and corresponding banking wallet. The KABN Card program aims to allow spending crypto in the real world. Presently, it is difficult to convert cryptocurrency into local currency. Exchanges increasingly offer trading pairs with stable coins instead of actual local currency. In many cases, withdrawals take weeks via international wire transfers. There are certainly exchanges that allow same-day withdrawals but these, management has found, are rare and in the minority. In certain cases, transfer fees are only viable for large deposits and withdrawals. With the KABN Card Consumers can immediately convert their crypto currency into fiat.
KABN KASH: KABN’s loyalty program is designed to engage members of the KABN whitelist and capture data in targeted offers and services. Segmented analytics will be used to determine and segment the highest-value, mid-value and low-value customers. The Company will target
messaging to increase frequency of spend and to graduate customer behaviour towards
higher-value membership. Phase one is the roll out of KABN KASH. This program provides KABN customers with the opportunity to transact with their Visa card at e-commerce websites and brick and mortar stores with an added value of an affiliate shopping mall experience. As a card holder shops within our environment, each transaction produces a commission back to KABN.
