Inspiration
We personally experienced that when we travel to another country which uses a different currency, we often have some unused cash with us that we cannot change back to the currency that we want to have. This also makes those money a waste in production since it would most likely not circulate anymore.
What it does
We propose ReCash, a mobile application that connects travellers who want to exchange currencies among themselves.
How I built it
As of the moment, this is build on the Android Platform
Challenges I ran into
- How do we make this exchange secure to address the issue of fake money and give users security that they would not be a victim of being mugged?
- How do we generate revenue in this application?
- How to use the APIs provided.
- Continuous change while taking good notes from mentors and people we have talked to about their stories in the airport.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
- We were able to create a working mockup that shows the flow and the basic components of what our app should do.
What I learned
- Continue to validate your system with people and learn their pain points and concerns.
What's next for ReCash
- We will plan to continue to study the feasibility of this project and to be really to be able to address the issues faced by people who travel.
