Money without borders. Access without limits.
Receive money from abroad, hold it in digital dollars, and collect it as cash from a shop near you.
01 How it works
Four steps, one app.
From a transfer abroad to cash in your hand. You choose where to stop.
- Receive Money comes from family, a client or an employer, and shows in your balance when it arrives.
- Hold in dollars Your balance is held in digital dollars, not in your local currency. You decide when to use it.
- Send and pay Send part of your balance to someone else, or pay straight from the app.
- Cash out Ask for cash in the app and collect it from a Connector: a local shop in the Shaheen network.
What is a digital dollar?
Note
A digital dollar in your Shaheen Money wallet is a stablecoin: a digital token designed to keep a value of one US dollar. In the United States, the GENIUS Act of July 2025 sets the rules for payment stablecoins: a permitted issuer must back them at least one to one with reserves such as US dollars, insured bank deposits and short-term Treasury bills, publish the make-up of those reserves every month, and have that report examined each month by a registered public accounting firm. A stablecoin is not a bank deposit, is not insured by the FDIC, and is not issued by Shaheen Money. Your balance keeps its dollar value until you use it, instead of following your local currency.
