In case you didn’t know, the Kasta app’s invite-only rollout was recently announced. This provides an opportunity for those who’ve signed up on the waitlist to access the app early, enjoy its initial features, and be part of the live testing period before the official launch.

If you haven’t signed up on the waitlist but are keen to also use the app early, you can still join the waitlist here and be part of the next batch of users who’ll receive an email invite from Kasta. But in the meantime, shall we talk about the initial features available on the app?

Sending and Receiving Crypto

Early access Kasta users can execute cross-border transactions. They can quickly send and receive the first four cryptocurrencies available on the app (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, and KASTA) to another user using just a QR code or mobile number. Sending and receiving the same cryptocurrency is free of charge.

Deposits and Withdrawals

Crypto deposits and withdrawals through an external wallet are also available on the first version of Kasta. You just need to copy your Kasta wallet address and go to the deposit or withdraw page of your external wallet to quickly add or withdraw a specific token.

Easy Swap Engine

This is one of the best features available in the Kasta app as it provides more crypto payment options, dismissing tribalism or crypto polarization. Aside from allowing you to convert currencies on your own (e.g., swap Bitcoin to Ethereum), you can also use Easy Swap Engine to receive payments in your preferred currency for minimal conversion fees.

If another user wants to send you Bitcoin but you want to receive it in Tether, you can enable the Easy Swap Engine and set it up to automatically convert all payments you will receive in Bitcoin into Tether. The conversion fees will be charged in the source currency, which in the previous example is Bitcoin.

More Exciting Things Coming Up

The Kasta Team is continuously working on adding more features, along with more currencies, to the Kasta app. Some of the things you can look forward to in the future are the referral program, locking-up and staking features, fiat on-ramp and off-ramp services, and the Kasta debit card.
