## The Challenge

> A system for tracking, managing, auditing, and reporting activities involved in humanitarian cash transfers.

## Software Architecture

The ecosystem consists of:

- **Implementing Partners (IPs)** - Request and disburse the cash, keep a record of who received it, how the money is spent, etc.
- **Beneficiaries** - Individuals who receive cash to spend.
- **Merchants** - Provide goods/services in exchange for cash.
