Here in case of BNPL option- repayment can be done through defined EMI. This can be done through available wallet currency or their debit or credit cards. Post installment, users get rewards in form of Credwise tokens.
How we built it
This is achieved through proven tech stack that gives us needed agility, scale and ease of integration in ecosystem. Outsystems as a low code platform to bring experience to users through multiple channels – web, mobile android and ios both. Node.js to get the APIs generated on top of CARDANO blockchain, for the consumption be ecommerce platform or Credwise app on various demoed features. Developed APIs, balance and transfer include underlying CARDANO API based on CARDANO account ID.

Initially it took bit of challenges to bring multiple wallet coins to Credwise as single platform. For Hackathon we could achieve CARDANO, Ethereum and Aurora chains in solution through Credwise. We integrated OutSystems low code platform with Cardano environment to facilitate our API powered transactions, initially we faced integration hurdles but we found ways to swiftly integrate our application.
