The problem
How can an MSB licensed in one state only, legally on-board transactions from other states?
How can an MSB that has corresponding agreements with let us say two beneficiary countries expand into other countries?
How can they get more business?
How can they get access to a unified platform?

The problem
How can they allow other businesses to benefit from their license without being subjected to any regulatory approval?
How can they continue to operate without exposing themselves to risk?
Who will put together the alliance and how will it work?

How it works
Step 1
Affiliate Agreement
Sign affiliate agreement with each:
● Platform (Domain)● Other MSBs in the
network
Step 2
Define Licensing
For each platform, enter the state(s) for which you are licensed for.
Step 3
Define Pricing
Display your pricing for each client transaction that may be sent your way.

How it works
Step 4
Define Corridors
Let others in your network know which corridors you have an agreement with for onward termination.
Step 5
Pass-Thru Pricing
For transactions picked up by others in the network and passed onto you, provide pricing for such transactions.
Step 6
Domain Goes Live
Platform provider goes live. Your pricing will determine if transaction come your way or not (as there can be multiple providers competing for the same business)

Flow of funds is strictly between licensed entities. All of whom have
a signed correspondent agreement with each other.

The most important takeaway is that Affiliates never touch the
money.
