DolarApp
Latin America's global financial app
DolarApp lets people in LatAm (currently Mexico, Argentina and Colombia) dollarize their everyday finances. Users can go from peso to dollar USDc (and back) in seconds, save in USDc, send and receive payments in the United States without the hassle, top up their accounts with crypto and pay with an international Mastercard at the best rates. DolarApp was started by 3 ex Revolut guys: Fernando and Alvaro led the 2 largest P&Ls in Revolut (Crypto and Subscriptions), and worked in LatAm as consultants for BCG; Zach led the Crypto and Remittances products at Revolut, and started an identity verification startup using crypto years ago.

Alvaro Correa
Company Launches
Hello all! We are Zach, Alvaro and Fernando and we are proud to officially launch DolarApp - your international USDc account for Mexico, where you can
- Get your Mexican account in Dollar USDc and save with 3% APY
- Have your own US bank account details (ACH and Routing Number) and get paid without hassle
- Receive 4% cashback when you pay with your card locally and internationally - without hidden fees
Why did we build DolarApp?
The three of us have spent a lot of time in Latin America and made great friends there. Friends who, simply because of where they were born, see their financial freedom limited: hyperinflation, bans on saving in USD, nightmares trying to move money in/out of their country and crazy fees when paying with a card when traveling.
After spending a couple of years at Revolut, we learned that Fintech as we know it today is constrained by traditional financial systems, partners, and regulatory frameworks. We realized we could end those constraints by offering people in LatAm a better account for their everyday finances built on USDc, with focus on simplicity and away from typical crypto jargon and complexity.
