About This Offer

Shelter is a blockchain-powered digital infrastructure that enables governments, humanitarian organizations, and development agencies to securely deliver cash assistance and social protection programs with full transparency and traceability. The platform supports both smartphones and basic feature phones through SMS, allowing vulnerable populations—including those without internet access, bank accounts, or formal identification—to securely receive and use humanitarian assistance. Funds can be programmed with predefined rules to ensure they are spent only for their intended purpose, while every transaction is recorded on blockchain, providing a complete audit trail and strengthening accountability. Shelter can be deployed for humanitarian cash transfers, emergency response, refugee assistance, social protection programs, agricultural subsidies, climate resilience initiatives, and other public benefit programs. The solution includes implementation support, technical assistance, system integration, user training, and ongoing operational support. Shelter is offered under flexible engagement models, including Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), pilot implementations, and enterprise deployments. Pricing depends on the scope, number of beneficiaries, integration requirements, and implementation timeline. Financing options may be available through grants, donor-funded programs, multilateral organizations, and co-funded pilot initiatives. Xcapit actively collaborates with governments, international organizations, NGOs, and development partners to structure financing mechanisms that facilitate adoption and scale.

Limitations

There is no fixed expiration date or limit on the availability of this offer. Implementations are subject to project scoping, deployment timelines, and resource availability. Pilot projects, technical assistance, and training are scheduled based on mutual agreement and implementation capacity.
