ZAR
ZAR is a cash-to-stablecoin onramp that lets users in emerging markets convert local currency to digital dollars at partner merchants.

What is ZAR?
ZAR turns corner stores, money changers, and mobile money agents into stablecoin onramps for users in cash-first economies. Customers walk into a participating merchant, scan a QR code, hand over local cash, and receive USD-backed stablecoins in their mobile wallet. The platform supports remittances, global Visa card spending, and local bank withdrawals so users can save in dollars and protect against currency inflation.
