At Xend Finance, our mission is to help individuals, credit unions and cooperatives around the world save in stable currencies and earn better returns. Our new partnership with DefiDollar would move us a step towards achieving this mission.

This collaboration would increase the stable currency options for our users and provide a higher yield on savings. Aside from BUSD currently available on the platform, Xend Finance users will be able to save in other stable currencies like USDC, USDT, and DUSD and get returns of up to 25% on their savings.

This is a big step to enable a simple savings account for Binance Smart Chain users and traditional credits unions.

Serving the underserved economies with DefiDollar

This new savings account provided by DefiDollar provides APYs of up to 25% which will be ideal for Xend Finance’s target users from unstable economies and financially underserved regions like Africa, Asia and other regions of the world.

This partnership will also allow Xend Finance to use DefiDollar’s stablecoin index, DUSD, to add support for different stable coins and help Xend Finance to diversify its offering.

Xend Finance users can save in BUSD right now, while support for other stablecoins would be added soon.
