FundRequest onboards ORCA

ORCA, the first open banking platform connecting crypto and fiat services in one place.

What is ORCA?

ORCA is the first Open Banking platform designed for crypto users. It functions as a customizable, easy to use gateway into the crypto-economy for both advanced and novice crypto enthusiasts. ORCA uses Open Banking, an emerging field to innovate integration of fiat bank accounts with cryptocurrency wallets.

Users will have a dashboard to link multiple bank accounts from different banks or financial institutions into one place. The dashboard will be fully customisable to meet personal needs and desires of each user, while the ORCA AI algorithms will provide personalised help and suggestions to optimise management of personal finances.

What’s more, ORCA users will be able to access and use several crypto-related services currently available on the market through the ORCA App Center. The ORCA App Center will provide a wide range of trusted third-party crypto applications to fulfill all individual needs. Crypto payment cards, trading bots, lending services, insurance and many more additions with the constantly expanding App Center.

2018 is set to be a game-changing year for retail banking. As the PSD2 is being implemented, banks’ monopoly on their customers’ account information and payment services is about to disappear. Therefore we at FundRequest are very happy to support ORCA, the first organisation that will leverage these new EU regulations in an open and transparent way.

— Karel Striegel, CEO FundRequest

ORCA and FundRequest

In order to support ORCA in its mission to be open and transparent, FundRequest will allow the use of ORCA tokens for funding development, bug fixes, security audits, translations and more on the public code of the ORCA project.

The need for developer problem-solving capabilities is a valuable commodity in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space. FundRequest is offering a flexible and lively solution to a headache most crypto projects are likely to face while at the same time supporting their developer community with opportunities to grow. We are thrilled to have access to FundRequest’s ecosystem.

— N. Avidan, CEO of ORCA Alliance

Furthermore, ORCA will be granted free access to the FundRequest API’s to help build the ORCA App Center.

This allows the ORCA project to interact even more with their community especially on the creation of their platform. The added value for FundRequest is to offer our developers a brand new blockchain project, this time a platform that operates in the financial sector.
