An Egyptian in the UAE initiates a transfer through one of two seamless paths.
Fiat Path
User loads Wallet with cash from their bank account.
Stablecoin Path
User loads Wallet with stablecoin from their digital asset wallet.
Step 2: Remi Core Orchestration
Once funds are deposited, Remi Core executes the transfer workflow through three controlled stages.
-
Compliance Check: The transaction is validated against policy, corridor, and regulatory controls before execution.
-
Transaction Routing: Remi Core routes the payment instruction across the optimal licensed path.
-
Settlement Confirmation: The transfer is finalized and confirmed in real time for downstream payout.
Step 3: Liquidity & Payout Execution
After send instruction, the payout layer distributes value instantly to the recipient through local rails.
Exchange House
Liquidity is sourced through regulated exchange-house partners for final-mile payout.
Local Partner Bank
Licensed local banking partners execute account credit and cashout settlement.
IPN to Recipient
The final payout instruction is delivered through IPN to the selected recipient endpoint.
