Livestock as collateral to access credit

We tokenize identified, verified head of cattle —with an ear tag or RFID, health record and location— inside a trust to back a loan; the token is released when the loan is repaid.

The problem

Without an accepted guarantee, credit does not reach the producer.

How it works

  1. 01

    Identify and verify

    Ear tag or RFID, health record and location.

  2. 02

    Tokenize in a trust

    Each verified head is backed inside the trust.

  3. 03

    Back the credit

    The token acts as collateral for the loan.

  4. 04

    Release the token

    When the loan is repaid, the token is released.

An ear tag is the animal's ear identification.
