Whom are we calling the “Poor”?

Extreme poverty is a global challenge. The World Bank forecasts that 702 million people were living in extreme poverty in 2015. Of these, about 347 million people lived in Sub-Saharan Africa (35.2% of the population) and 231 million lived in South Asia (13.5% of the population).

UNICEF estimates half the world’s children (or 1.1 billion) live in poverty. Another estimate places the true scale of poverty much higher than the World Bank, with an estimated 4.3 billion people (59 percent of the world’s population) living with less than $5 a day and unable to meet basic needs adequately.

Whatever these numbers are … bottom line, they are extremely LARGE!

Three quarters of the world’s poor do not have a bank account. This is not only because they are poor, but the cost, travel distance and amount of paper work involved in opening an account is overwhelming for them! In addition, it is also because banks are not interested in them for economic reasons. Because, according to the American Banking Association, it costs banks between US$250 and US$300 per year to open and maintain a bank account.
So imagine that about 25% of adults in the world earning less than $2 a day having sufficient funds to justify the banks’ decisions to open accounts for them? The problem of these billions of unbanked people is a vicious circle! Who is going to step up and provide them with a solution that could lift them from poverty?
It is the hope that an inexpensive Prepaid Card Platform and System can, using volume as a justification method, help lift the poor to a higher standard!
How do we do this?
Reduction in Money Transfer Costs – According to the World Bank the average transaction fee paid by the poor to transfer funds from one country to another is about 9%. So, if an Overseas Foreign Worker (OFW) wants to send US$100 from Malaysia to Bangladesh, it would cost the OFW $9.00. When the funds arrive in Bangladesh, there is no guarantee that the Recipient would not be charged some more (for Foreign Exchange) when the cash is delivered to the Recipient’s hands. In most Western Banks, there is a Service Charge of $30.00 plus a percentage (about 3%) of the funds transferred.
Technologies – Most poor people do not own a Smartphone. But these days it is getting common to see more and more poor using them. Inexpensive phones are opening new opportunities to the poor too. In fact, according to the Pew Research Center, the poor are more reliant on smartphones. Most of them use a Pay As You Go (Prepaid) plan.
The OneCard Platform could be integrated to corresponding Mobile Wallets that belong to the poor subscribers’ messaging system. With these phones and mobile wallets, the poor can use them to buy goods and services (often read by wi-fi Point of Sale Terminals; or online Merchants).
We reiterate – our focus would be to enable the poor, including the 2.0 billion unbanked people of the world.

Our aim is to improve the quality of life by building the world’s capacity to support its inhabitants by first having the ability to have a financial account by way of owning a WCB OneCard Prepaid Card that would, in turn, provide them a way to buy goods and services, earn rewards, and redeem points for rewards – even online.
