Sòl-DA is a cellphone app created for people “pooling” among themselves as a group of employees of the same company or different institutions where everyone gets a lump sum as a loan and repay over a pre-defined schedule, by-passing an interest-charging bank and therefore becoming essentially an interest-free loan. It is a free download app for android and IOS system.
The purpose of developing this app is to provide tools and information to the Sòl community and empower people who would not otherwise get access to institutional credit. This app will allow those doing this type of financial activity (known within the Haitian community as Sòl) to use cell phone technology to get information in real time and transfer money between the parties involved in the Sòl activity.
1- Provide the Haitian community, at home and abroad, with a state-of-the-art tool to manage the Sòl financial activity sector.
2- Promote the Sòl activity to better transfer it to the next generation.
3- Export the Sòl activity to other communities other than Haitians.
4- Abide by any financial regulations in place where the app is being used, whenever such regulations exist.
