Through the innovative technology of the Uulala platform, users can build a global credit score in addition to sending payments peer to peer internationally, pay their bills, shop online and obtain microcredit offers. All transactions are recorded on the blockchain as an immutable record thereby giving the users the ability to build their credit history wherever they go. Uulala’s credit score can be leveraged by traditional financial institutions as a more definitive factor of creditworthiness by using daily financial activities to build the profile. For the Latino small business owner, to date, Uulala has agreements with more than 100 companies to give their unbanked customers access to technology to improve their finances.
Oscar Garcia, launched his company two years ago when the Latino GDP topped $2 trillion and the unbanked were classified as the #1 source of future banking growth. While traditional banks are slow to iterate, the Uulala team set out to help the underbanked and unbanked market leapfrog into a new financial system supported by blockchain technology. “With blockchain technology, Uulala is able to solve one of the biggest problems for the unbanked: the ability to load cash into their account. Through our peer-to-peer cash loading feature and a smart contract, we’ve created a blockchain solution to easily facilitate this kind of immutable transaction.”
Both LBA and Uulala are creating business development opportunities that strengthen the economic and social foundations of the community with the State of California. The LBA’s mission is focused on building economic wealth and opportunity for Latino businesses and the community. The organization serves as an economic catalyst by attracting and developing new markets as well as facilitating business start-ups and providing education. Since its founding, the LBA-Institute, in conjunction with its corporate alliances, has generated millions of dollars in loans and procurement contracts.
