Programmability is an important feature in modern payments systems. CBDC used to direct social benefits for specific purposes implements this by programmable money. This is supported in the next version of Crunchfish Digital Cash by means of handling multiple balances in the wallet. There are also use cases for multiple balances for commercial payments systems. Programmable payments, often referred to as smart contracts when implemented on a blockchain, enable more complex transactions to be implemented. This is based on conditional settlement when one or more specified conditions have been met.

In parallel to this announced Digital Cash version, Crunchfish applied yesterday for a patent application for programmable payments with the novel aspect of having the settlement conditions specified and verifiable by the payee. This offers a wide range of use cases within payments, enabling automation, transparency, and security in financial transactions and services. Use cases include international money transfers, escrow services, subscription services, micropayments, and peer-to-peer payments. The patent, if granted, is valid for 20 years until June 2044.

“We continue to evolve the Crunchfish Digital Cash solution and we are now adding programmability as well, both in terms of programmable money in the next version of Digital Cash as well as payee-controlled programmable payments as a patent-pending feature.”, says Joachim Samuelsson, CEO at Crunchfish
