### Introduction

From growing up in Nigeria to completing University in Canada to working in San Francisco, and now building a Start in Toronto, Canada, I’ve seen firsthand how the right payment solutions can transform businesses and personal transactions. In this blog post, we will dive into a comparative analysis of three major players in the payment space: Interac, Zelle, and Cash App. Each platform offers unique advantages, but for Canadian users and businesses looking to expand or streamline their payment processes especially locally, understanding these differences is key.

### Interac: Canada’s Homegrown Solution

Interac stands out as a distinctly Canadian solution, deeply integrated into the financial ecosystem of the country. It allows users to send money directly between bank accounts without intermediary steps, making it highly trusted for both personal and business transactions. Here’s what Chimoney brings to the table with Interac API offers:

1. **Instant Payment Acceptance**: Businesses can receive payments up to $10,000 instantly, significantly speeding up cash flow.
2. **Bulk Payout Capabilities:** Ideal for paying out gig workers or distributing prizes, Interac enables mass payouts directly to recipients' bank accounts via email. Check out our blog post to learn how to send Interac Bulk Payouts via API.
3. **Payment Requests:** Simplify billing by requesting payments directly via email with instant payment through Interac, ensuring timely receivables. In addition to the Interac Request Money Feature, you can also use Chimoney’s Payment Request Feature which allows you to request Money and gives the payer the option to pay with Interac, Card, Bank transfer, and other options.

### Zelle: The American Connection

Originally designed to compete with the likes of PayPal and Venmo, Zelle is embraced primarily by U.S. banks, offering seamless transactions without fees. While it facilitates instant transfers among U.S. bank accounts, its integration in Canada is limited, as it requires U.S. bank partnerships.

### Cash App: Flexibility in Payments

Cash App has revolutionized the peer-to-peer payment landscape by allowing users not only to send and receive money but also to invest in stocks and cryptocurrencies. Although popular in the U.S., its functionality in Canada is constrained by regulatory and financial infrastructure differences.

### Analysis of Payment Options

### The Power of Instant Confirmation

Imagine a Canadian online platform, "Maple Goods," which used to wait days to confirm payments from international buyers—slowing down both their operations and delivery times. After integrating Chimoney's Payment Infrastructure, Maple Goods now confirms payments up to $10k instantly. Their buyers pay with their local currency with Card or Bank Transfers, powered by Chimoney, and Chimoney disburses the funds locally to Maple Goods via Interac the same day. This shift not only improves their operational efficiency but also enhances customer satisfaction by speeding up order processing times.

### Use Cases of Interac

Interac’s flexibility and integration into the Canadian financial ecosystem make it a versatile tool for various transactions. Here’s how Chimoney Infrastructure with Interac support and Infrastructure can enable these use cases:

The world is rapidly becoming a global village, not just in terms of digital connectivity but also in finance and payments. At Chimoney, we envision a future where financial barriers are non-existent; a world where everyone, regardless of their location, can manage and move money effortlessly. We want money to move like [Chi](https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/chi#:~:text=to%20represent%20speech-,Definitions%20of%20chi,of%3A%20energy%2C%20vim%2C%20vitality). Our [Multi-currency Wallet](https://chimoney.io/multi-currency-wallets) infrastructure is an exciting step toward this vision.

### What is a Multi-Currency Wallet?

A multi-currency wallet allows businesses and individuals to hold, manage, and transact in multiple currencies from a single account. This is particularly vital in a globalized economy where dealing with multiple currencies is the norm, not the exception. Chimoney’s multi-currency wallet is designed to cater to this need, providing seamless transactions across borders without the hassle of currency conversion fees and delays.

### The Need for Multi-Currency Wallets

Imagine you are the founder of a shiny new AI data tagging platform. Your platform employs hundreds of freelancers from across the globe, from the bustling markets of Lagos to the tech-savvy cities of India. Each freelancer wants the flexibility of using their earnings to pay their bills in their local currency, but managing these multiple currency demands can quickly become a logistical nightmare for you.

This is where Chimoney's Multi-Currency wallets come into play. They allow your users to hold balances in multiple currencies, make transfers, and even cash out in their local currency without the hassle of currency conversion or high transfer fees.

### How Chimoney's Multi-Currency Wallets Work

1. **Wallet Creation:** Onboard Users by creating a wallet using the [_multicurrency-wallets/create_](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/post_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-create) endpoint. Here, they can choose which currencies they want to hold—USD, CAD, NGN, or any of the multiple currencies we support.
2. **Accessing Wallet Information:** Whenever a user needs to check their balance or recent transactions, they click a button on your Platform which calls the Chimoney [_multicurrency-wallets/get_](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/get_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-get) endpoint. A comprehensive list of all user wallets is available through the [_multicurrency-wallets/list_](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/get_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-list).
3. **Transferring Funds:** Perhaps the most critical aspect of our wallets is the ability to transfer funds. Before executing a transfer, users can get a quote. This is enabled by the [_multicurrency-wallets/transfer/quote_](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/post_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-transfer-quote) endpoint, which provides details on transaction fees and exchange rates. Once they are satisfied, they can proceed with the transfer through the [_multicurrency-wallets/transfer_](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/post_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-transfer).

### A Journey Through a Fictitious AI Data Tagging Platform

Let’s take a journey through our hypothetical AI data tagging platform. Alex, a data specialist from the United States, and Alicia, a Data Analysts from Nigeria, both work on your platform. With Chimoney's Multi-Currency Wallet, Alex can receive his earnings in CAD and Alicia in NGN. When Alex needs to pay Alicia for her services, he can transfer funds directly from his CAD balance to Alicia’s NGN balance, seamlessly and instantly, with all currency conversions handled efficiently by Chimoney’s backend.

This functionality not only simplifies the payroll process but also enhances the user experience by providing a flexible, reliable financial tool right at their fingertips.

### Why This Matters

In a world that’s rapidly embracing remote work and global collaborations, the ability to manage and transfer money internationally without friction is invaluable. Chimoney’s Multi-Currency Wallet infrastructure is more than just a financial tool; it’s a bridge connecting global talents and opportunities.

### Conclusion

The demand for borderless financial transactions keeps increasing as the global economy becomes increasingly interconnected. More companies are increasingly hiring internationally to access a wider pool of talent, extend runway or hire one or two exceptional talents. With this, Multi-currency wallets have proved to be indispensable, offering businesses a flexibility in managing cross-border transactions and currency conversions.

Whether it's disbursing salaries to employees across different countries, settling invoices with international suppliers, or receiving payments from clients worldwide, these wallets provide users with the versatility they need to conduct transactions in their preferred currency.

The Chimoney Multi-Currency Wallets Infrastructure and API is specifically designed to facilitate the creation and management of multicurrency wallets, as well as seamless fund cross-currency global transfers between the wallets and other recipient channels, such as email and phone numbers.

In this article we’ll focus on only two endpoints:

- **Create a New Multi-Currency Wallet endpoint:** This initiates the creation of a new multi-currency wallet for a user or Business.
- **Transfer from a multicurrency wallet to another wallet, an email, or a phone number endpoint:** This allows for fund transfers between multi-currency wallets or to an email or phone number.

## Real-World Scenario: Global Payroll Management
We’ll implement a sample integration for an Organization with a remote team or community members distributed globally. The company needs a streamlined way to pay employees in their local currencies, ensuring timely, compliant and transparent transactions. Integrating Chimoney's multi-currency wallets offers the following benefits:

- **Employees:** Workers and Community members receive their salaries in their preferred currencies, eliminating the need to manage foreign exchange or hidden fees. This creates a positive experience and reduces confusion regarding pay.

Chimoney handles currency conversions efficiently, tax and compliance. The consolidated payment flow minimizes administrative overhead and ensures a streamlined reconciliation process for Finance teams.

## Pre-requisites
- Node.js and npm (or yarn) installed
- A Chimoney developer account. [Get Sandbox Access](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/sandbox-environment)
- Familiarity with Javascript development and HTTP requests

Before diving into the integration process, developers need to sign up for a [Chimoney developer account and obtain their API keys](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/sandbox-environment), which we'll use to set the Authorization header in our API requests.

## Integration Steps
To make HTTPS requests to the Chimoney API, we'll use the axios library. Install it using npm or yarn:

```
npm install axios
```

Or use `fetch`.

## Creating a New Multi-Currency Wallet

The [`/v0.2/multicurrency-wallets/create`](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/post_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-create) endpoint allows you to [create new multi-currency wallets ](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/post_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-create)for the employees and community members. Here's an example of a Node.js function that creates a wallet for an employee:

```javascript
const axios = require('axios');

async function createWallet(userData) {
  const url = 'https://api.chimoney.io/v0.2/multicurrency-wallets/create';
  const apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY'; // Replace with your Chimoney API key

  const data = {
    name: "Jane Doe",
    email: "jane.doe@company.org"
  };

  const headers = {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'x-api-key': `${apiKey}`,
  };

  try {
    const response = await axios.post(url, data, { headers });
    if (response.status === 200) {
      console.log('Wallet created successfully!');
      console.log('Wallet ID:', response.data.id);
      return response.data.id;
    } else {
      console.error('Error creating wallet:', response.data.error);
      throw new Error(response.data.error);
    }
  } catch (error) {
    throw error;
  }
}
```

This function takes user data (name, email, etc.) as input and returns the newly created wallet ID upon successful creation. Remember to replace `YOUR_API_KEY` with your actual Chimoney API key.

## Transferring Funds Between Wallets

The [`/v0.2/multicurrency-wallets/transfer`](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/post_v0-2-multicurrency-wallets-transfer) endpoint enables you to [automate international payroll](https://chimoney.io/developers-api/) payments to employee wallets. Here's an example function for [processing remote employee payments](https://chimoney.io/developers-api/) and payments to international community members:

```javascript
async function processPayroll(employeeWalletId, amount, originCurrency, destinationCurrency) {
  const url = 'https://api.chimoney.io/v0.2/multicurrency-wallets/transfer';
  const headers = {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'x-api-key': `${apiKey}`,
  };

  const senderWalletId = 'YOUR_COMPANY_WALLET_ID'; // Replace with your organization's wallet ID

  const data = {
    amountToSend: amount,
    originCurrency: originCurrency,
    receiver: employeeWalletId, // Use the employee's wallet ID as the receiver
    destinationCurrency: destinationCurrency,
  };

  try {
    const response = await axios.post(url, data, { headers });
    if (response.status === 200) {
      console.log('Payroll payment successful!');
      console.log('Transaction details:', response.data);
      // Handle successful payment, e.g., update payroll records
    } else {
      console.error('Error processing payroll payment:', response.data.error);
      // Handle payment error, e.g., log details, notify administrator
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error sending payroll transfer request:', error);
    // Handle network errors or API issues
  }
}

// Example usage (assuming you have employee dat)
const employeeData = {
  name: 'Jane Doe',
  email: 'jane.doe@company.org',
};

createEmployeeWallet(employeeData)
  .then(employeeWalletId => {
    processPayroll(employeeWalletId, 1000, 'USD', 'EUR'); // Pay €1000 equivalent in USD
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error('An error occurred:', error);
  });
```
The function sends payroll payments from the organization's wallet to employee wallets. It constructs a request to Chimoney's API endpoint `/v0.2/multicurrency-wallets/transfer`, including necessary headers and data. Upon successful payment, transaction details are logged, otherwise, error messages are logged for failed transactions. You can adjust the sender's wallet ID (senderWalletId) to the specific organization's wallet ID.

The employee or community member is notified and they can cash out their Payment to their Bank Account, Wallet, or other local options.

This guide is tailored for developers, featuring step-by-step instructions on how to integrate Chimoney's API using Node.js and Python. Let's dive into how you can harness the power of Chimoney's Global Payouts API to enhance your payment infrastructure.

### Prerequisites

- Chimoney account with API access. [Get Sandbox Access here](https://chimoney.readme.io/reference/sandbox-environment).
- Node.js or Python environment set up
- API keys for authentication

### Node.js Example

Install the `axios` package to make HTTP requests:

```bash
npm install axios
```
Or use `fetch`.

Create a `payout.js` file and use the following code snippet to call the Global Payouts API:

```javascript
const axios = require('axios');

const payload = {
  chimoneys: [{
    email: "test@gmail.com",
    currency: "USD", 
    amount: 10
  }]
};

axios.post('https://api.chimoney.io/v0.2/payouts/chimoney', payload, {
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'x-api-key': 'Your_API_Key'
  }
})
.then(response => console.log(response.data))
.catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));
```

Replace `"Your_API_Key"` with your actual API key and modify the payload as needed.

### Python Example

Install the `requests` package if you haven't already:

```bash
pip install requests
```

Create a `payout.py` file and use the following code snippet to interact with the Global Payouts API:

```python
import requests
import json

url = "https://api.chimoney.io/v0.2/payouts/chimoney"
payload = {
  "chimoneys": [{
    "email": "test@gmail.com",
    "currency": "USD"
    "amount": 10
  }]
}
headers = {
  'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  'x-api-key': 'Your_API_Key'
}

response = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)

print(response.text)
```

Ensure you replace `"Your_API_Key"` with your actual API key and adjust the payload according to your needs.
