Today we are shutting down the Bondy app and winding @Haraka_xyz down.
We started Haraka with a mission to bring financial access to people around the world marginalized by the traditional financial system. We advanced that mission over the last two years by giving loans to farmers in rural Ghana, credit scores to shopkeepers in Nairobi, and access to dollar savings accounts to freelancers in Nigeria.
We gave it everything we had, and while we didn't find the path to scale, we're grateful for every person who joined us on this ride. The mission lives on. Thank you.
USD stablecoins. Domiciliary accounts. Neobanks. Crypto wallets. The options to hold dollars have never been bigger.
The gap in 2026 isn't access to USD. It's access that actually works for normal people living normal lives.
Product designer. Brand designer. Marketing designer. Design system architect. The rare person who can do all four at a founding stage and make it look like a team of ten did it. Happy International Women's Day @just_i_m_a. Bondy wouldn't look, feel, or exist the way it does without you. ๐
This International Women's Day we're highlighting the women powering Bondy. Starting with @just_i_m_a, our product designer and the person responsible for literally everything you've ever seen from us. Jack of all trades when it comes to design. Master of all.
Patient when everything is on fire. Creative when the brief is "I don't know, just make it cool." The person who somehow makes 3 rounds of "can we try something else" feel like a collaboration and not a nightmare. The energy you want on your team at 2am before a launch.
What's the point of saving if your savings are shrinking while you sleep? ๐ก
That's what currency devaluation does. You do everything right: budget, save, avoid lifestyle creep and your money still loses value.
The first rule of saving: save in a currency that holds.
7,000+ people ๐ฅณ across Kenya and Nigeria decided to stop losing money to currency drops.
They're saving in USD. Converting on their terms. Keeping more of what they earn.

๐กTwo freelancers. Same client. Same $1,000 payment.
One converts to local currency immediately. The other holds in USD and converts when the rate is right.
End of the month? One has 5-10% more purchasing power. Same work. Same money.
When your local currency moves 5%+ in a week, having the option to hold in dollars and convert on your terms isn't a luxury. It's how you protect your income.
How Bondy works:
1. open USD account โ 2 mins, no cap
2. receive payments from anywhere โ clients, platforms, you name it
3. start earning 10% interest โ automatic, while you sleep
4. money compounds โ passive income go brr
5. withdraw to local bank โ whenever you want
it's giving โจ"why wasn't this always a thing"
We built Bondy because the world changed. Finance didn't.
1B people depend on remittances. Fees are still 6%. So we built new infrastructure.
