I'm looking forward to playing with this. I just noticed the tld is ZA, so even more stoked for you guys. Whats the timeline to hit the US? I noticed you guys partnered with Standard Bank, any early discussions with a US bank? Gee hom gas!

@mitchellgeere We don't have a timeline for the US yet, but we'll keep everyone informed as we go :)

Integrate with Ethereum or another Blockchain maybe?

Very interesting idea. Can't wait to test it.

What problem does it solve? Both my banks have great mobile apps, can't see myself to code one just to make couple of transactions.

Interesting stuff. How do you onboard users though? What are the requirements to create an account?

Cool idea ~ in the ballpark of "why didn't I think of that."

Will physical cards also be available?
Louw Hopley
@jpadilla_ physical cards are the main feature :) (virtual cards and money transfer features also exist)

I've always wanted something like this. I want to give access to services like mint to my transaction history, but do not want to give them full access to my account. I imagine this would allow me to create a token with limited permissions for such situations!

The OfferZen logo on the bottom of the Root homepage should link to OfferZen so I can learn more about the parent company easily.
