Cash Blast

Digital Money Spraying Solution

Challenge

In response to a new EFCC regulation in Nigeria prohibiting the traditional “spraying” of currency notes at celebrations like weddings and birthdays, a UK-based client sought to create a digital solution to maintain this cherished cultural practice. The goal was to provide an easy-to-use, secure app that would allow party guests to “spray” money digitally to celebrants, adapting the custom to meet regulatory changes.

Our Process

To deliver a solution aligned with local traditions and digital innovation, we followed this six-step process:

  1. Research & Analysis: Conducted extensive research on cultural norms and the impact of the EFCC policy to understand user needs.
  2. UI/UX Design: Developed a user-centric design that replicates the festive experience of spraying money, focusing on ease of use and visual appeal.
  3. Technical Architecture: Designed a secure backend for smooth, peer-to-peer (P2P) digital transactions with wallet integration.
  4. App Development: Built cross-platform functionality, ensuring performance on both iOS and Android devices.
  5. Testing & Optimization: Ran functional and security tests to verify reliability and compliance with local financial regulations.
  6. Launch & Adoption Strategy: Supported post-launch adoption through marketing strategies targeting partygoers and event hosts.
