How can you pay up to 10 % when banks pay 1–2 %?

Traditional banks lend out your money, keep most of the interest, and pay you a small slice — often less than inflation.
Beans connects you directly with borrowers who want fast access to digital euros and dollars (like EURC or USDC). These digital currencies can be used in higher-yield markets — such as trading or lending — where returns are often higher than in traditional finance.
Because borrowers are willing to pay more for that access, you earn a share of their rate.

‍

Is Beans safe?

Beans is a fully non-custodial platform, giving you complete control over your funds without reliance on a centralized entity like a bank. Users retain full custody of their assets through private keys, ensuring maximum security, privacy, and financial independence.

In case of lost account access, recovery is securely managed through a two-factor authentication (2FA) process using email and a PIN. Beans also utilizes advanced encryption and decentralized security protocols to protect your assets from unauthorized access or cyber threats.

Is Beans non-custodial?

Yes, in Beans you have full control and ownership over your assets and you are in full control over your own keys. We have abstracted away all the complexity, giving you a bank experience with blockchain technology. Our goal is that even our moms can use beans. This approach enhances security, privacy, and decentralization, allowing users to have complete control over their funds during international money transfers.

How do MoneyGram deposits work?

MoneyGram deposits wirh Beans work in two steps:

1. Create a Deposit Ticket:
- Use the Beans app to generate a ticket with a unique ID.
- Specify the deposit amount and select the MoneyGram agency you'll use.

2. Cash Delivery:
- Visit the chosen MoneyGram agency.
- Pay the amount specified in your deposit ticket.

The deposit is completed once you've paid the cash at the agency matching your deposit ticket details.

Where do I find my reference number for MoneyGram withdrawal?

To find your reference number for a MoneyGram withdrawal, follow these steps:

1. Open the Beans app and navigate to the main screen.
2. Tap on the Withdraw option.
3. Select History at the bottom left of the screen.
4. Locate and tap on the withdrawal you made.
5. Your reference number will be displayed within the withdrawal details.
6. Make sure to keep this number handy, as it is required when collecting your money from a MoneyGram location.

Why are the bank transfers not always immediate?

Bank transfers are not always immediate due to various factors in the banking system. While many people expect instant transactions, the reality is more complex. Transfers are only immediate if both the sender's and receiver's banks participate in the SEPA Instant system, a European Union initiative for instant payments. If either bank doesn't use this system, transfers can take up to four business days to process. Even digital banks like Wise and Revolut, known for their modern approach, don't always provide consistent instant transfers. This delay is a common feature of the current banking infrastructure and varies depending on the institutions involved in the transaction.

What should I do if my ID validation was unsuccessful?

We're sorry to hear that your ID validation was unsuccessful. To resolve this, please contact the provider responsible for handling the validation process in your country: Anclap, MyKobo, Banxa, or Kado. They manage this step and can assist you with any issues.

Before reaching out, ensure that:
- Your ID is clear and not expired
- The photo and details are fully visible
- Your selfie (if required) matches the ID

If you still experience issues after contacting the provider, feel free to reach out to our support team for further guidance.

‍

Are there any fees associated with buying cryptocurrencies?

Beans does not charge additional fees for exchanging between currencies. The only potential costs are minimal partner fees for deposits or withdrawals. However, if you already have funds in your wallet, you can exchange and buy cryptocurrencies without any extra fees, making transactions seamless and cost-effective.

‍

How can I share my Money Request?

You can share your Money Request via a QR code or a link. Simply copy the link or show the QR code to the person from whom you’re requesting money.

Where does the yield come from?

Borrowers—such as professional trading desks and crypto-native funds—pay to borrow digital euros and dollars. They use these funds in high-yield digital markets, which often offer higher returns than traditional finance.
Because they need fast access and are willing to pay a premium, you earn a share of that rate.

‍

How much money can I send?

With Beans, there are no limits on the amount of money you can send, giving you complete freedom to transfer funds as needed. For larger transactions, we recommend breaking them into smaller amounts to take advantage of better rates on the decentralized marketplace.

While sending money is unlimited, deposits and withdrawals may be subject to certain restrictions, as they involve third-party services.

Is there a maximum MoneyGram limit?

Yes, MoneyGram has maximum limits on transfers. The exact limit can vary depending on factors like the sending/receiving countries, payment method, and your account status. For specific details, it's best to check MoneyGram's website or contact their customer service directly.

‍

Do I have an IBAN using Beans?

Beans does not provide a personal IBAN. Instead, your account is identified by a unique username, which is used for transfers within the Beans system.

To deposit funds from a bank into your Beans account, you will need to use the IBAN of Beans' local partner, MyKobo. You send money to MyKobo's IBAN, and they credit your Beans account with the transferred amount, minus a small 0.5% fee. This allows you to fund your Beans account seamlessly, even without having your own IBAN in the system.

Is there a maximum MoneyGram limit?

Yes, MoneyGram imposes maximum limits on transfers, but these limits can vary depending on several factors. The country you’re sending money from and the destination both play a role in determining the maximum amount you can transfer. Some regions may have stricter regulations, while others allow for larger transactions.

The payment method you choose also affects the limit. If you’re using a bank transfer, you may be able to send a higher amount compared to using a debit or credit card, or even cash. Additionally, your account status matters. A verified user with a history of successful transactions might have access to higher limits than someone who is new to the platform or hasn’t completed identity verification.

Since these factors can change depending on your specific transaction, it’s always best to check MoneyGram’s website or reach out to their customer support for the most accurate and up-to-date information on transfer limits.

‍

How do I send money from a specific country?

To send money from one country to another using Beans, follow these steps:
1. Download the Beans app and create an account.
2. Deposit money into your Beans account using a bank transfer or credit/debit card.
3. Ensure your recipient in another country also downloads Beans and sets up their account in their local currency.
4. Send money to their Beans username instantly. Or ask the receiver to send a money request from the Beans App.
5. The recipient can withdraw the funds to their bank account in their local currency.

Beans offers peer-to-peer transfers with competitive exchange rates and no added fees for sending money. However, small fees may apply for deposits and withdrawals, depending on the method used. It’s recommended to start with a small amount to familiarize yourself with the process.

How can I withdraw my cryptocurrency earnings?

Ensure the transaction is completed within 24 hours at your chosen location. If the agent has difficulties, they can contact MoneyGram for assistance. Remember, this process is treated as a regular transaction where you're both the sender and receiver.

‍

Do I have a CBU using Beans?

With Beans, you don't have a traditional CBU (Clave Bancaria Uniforme). Instead, your Beans account is identified by a unique username, which functions similarly to a CBU alias within the Beans system. This username is used for internal transfers between Beans users but cannot be used for external transfers from Argentinian banks or apps like Mercado Pago. To deposit funds into your Beans account from an Argentinian source, you'll need to use the CBU of Beans' local partner, Anclap. They receive the money on your behalf and then credit it to your Beans account, minus a small fee.

‍

Are there any fees?

While Beans cannot eliminate the fees imposed by third-party services for deposits and withdrawals, the platform itself does not charge any additional fees or markups. This ensures that even after factoring in external fees, your friends and family receive more money compared to other similar services. With Beans, you benefit from direct, fee-free transfers between users and competitive exchange rates.

‍

What's the minimum deposit?

With Beans, there’s no minimum deposit holding you back. Whether you’re depositing a little or a lot, you have full control over your funds. However, it’s always a good idea to check the deposit fee beforehand to ensure you’re maximizing the value of your money.

Can I receive payments directly from external sources, into my Beans account without using partners like Anclap?

No, receiving payments directly from external sources, such as a client’s bank account or payroll, into your Beans account without using partners like Anclap is not possible. For example, to deposit funds from an Argentinian source, you must use the CBU of Beans' local partner, Anclap. They receive the funds on your behalf and credit them to your Beans account after deducting a small processing fee.

To see the available deposit options and the correct partner for your transaction, simply select your preferred deposit method and currency in the Beans app. The app will display the supported options and guide you through the process. This ensures you always use the right partner for seamless deposits.

‍

How secure is it to store cryptocurrencies in Beans?

Beans is a fully non-custodial platform, meaning your funds are never controlled by a centralized entity like a bank. You have full ownership and control of your assets through private keys, ensuring maximum security, privacy, and financial independence. Your funds remain accessible only to you, giving you complete autonomy over your money.

‍

Is the Money Request feature secure?

Yes, the Money Request feature is designed with security as a top priority. It uses encrypted links and QR codes, ensuring that only the intended recipient can respond to your request. Your transactions are safe with Beans!

How often are earnings paid?

Earnings are calculated and credited daily (≈24-hour compounding). You can track growth in real time.

‍

Does MoneyGram apply extra fees on your transfers?

Yes, MoneyGram applies extra fees when transferring money through the Beans app. Because MoneyGram is a third party, we can’t eliminate their fees.

‍

These are the fees regulated by MoneyGram:

‍

Between 1 USDC and 99 USDC, the fee in USD is $2.

Example: If you transfer 50 USDC, the fee is $2.

‍

Between 100 USDC and 999 USDC, the fee in USD is $2 + 1% of the transaction.

Example: If you transfer 120 USDC, the fee is $2 + (1% of 120 = 1.20) $1.20 = $2.20

‍

Between 1000 USDC or higher, the fee in USD is $10 + 0.5% of the transaction.

Example: If you transfer 2500 USDC, the fee is $10 + (0.5% of 2500 = 12.50) $12.50 = $22.50.

‍

Why does the exchange rate change?

The exchange rate in Beans fluctuates based on the liquidity of the system for a specific currency pair and transaction amount at any given moment. It’s not simply a matter of multiplying the exchange rate by the amount being converted. This dynamic pricing means that, in some cases, converting smaller amounts may yield a more favorable exchange rate.

To ensure transparency, Beans always displays the exact amount the recipient will receive before confirming a transaction. This allows you to make informed decisions and optimize your exchanges for the best possible value.

‍

My deposit is still pending. What should I do?

If your deposit is still pending, don’t worry! There are a few things you can check to ensure everything is on track.

First, verify your payment details. Double-check that the exact amount stated on your deposit ticket was transferred and that you included the unique reference code in the payment details. Missing or incorrect information could delay processing. Next, consider bank processing times. Depending on your bank, transfers can take 1–3 business days to complete, so a short delay may be normal. If this is your first deposit, your account may still be undergoing verification, which can sometimes extend the processing time.

If everything appears correct but your deposit remains pending after 3 business days, please reach out to our customer support team via Beans Help & Support. To speed up the process, have the following details ready: the amount transferred, the date and time of the transaction, and your reference code or a screenshot of the transaction. Our team is here to help ensure your funds are processed smoothly!

‍

Does MoneyGram apply extra fees on your withdrawal?

Yes, MoneyGram applies additional fees when withdrawing money through Beans via MoneyGram. Since MoneyGram is a third-party service, these fees are set by them and are beyond our control.

Here’s how the fees are structured by MoneyGram:

Between 1 USDC and 99 USDC: A flat fee of $2.
Example: If you transfer 50 USDC, the fee is $2.

Between 100 USDC and 999 USDC: A fee of $2 + 1% of the transaction.
Example: If you transfer 120 USDC, the fee is $2 + (1% of 120 = $1.20) = $3.20.

1000 USDC or higher: A fee of $10 + 0.5% of the transaction.
Example: If you transfer 2500 USDC, the fee is $10 + (0.5% of 2500 = $12.50) = $22.50.

We recommend reviewing these fees before making a transfer to ensure transparency and avoid surprises. For more information, feel free to reach out to our support team!

‍

Can I link my Beans username to external payment platforms to streamline transactions?

You cannot link your Beans username to external payment platforms like Mercado Pago or PayPal. Your Beans account is identified by a unique username, which is used for internal transfers between Beans users only. For external transfers, you need to use the CBU or IBAN of Beans' local partners, such as Anclap or Mykobo, who will then credit your Beans account after receiving the funds.

‍

Where can I get help with cryptocurrency transactions?

For assistance with cryptocurrency transactions in the Beans app, visit our Help & Support page or reach out to our customer service team for personalized support. Our team is ready to help with any questions or issues you may have.

‍

Are there any fees for using the Money Request feature?

The Money Request feature is free to use. However, standard deposit or withdrawal fees may apply depending on how the sender or receiver completes the transaction, such as withdrawing funds or making a deposit before sending.

What currencies can I deposit?

You can currently open Earn balances in euros (EUR) and dollars (USD).
If your bank account is in another currency, you can deposit in your local currency (if supported), then convert to EUR or USD in the app before moving funds into Earn.

More currency options are coming soon.

‍

How can you offer such high yields?

Beans leverages digital currencies and blockchain technology to eliminate inefficiencies in cross-border payments, lending, and borrowing. By removing intermediaries, transactions become faster, more cost-effective, and more accessible to users worldwide.

The yield on offered assets is provided by Ultra-Capital, ensuring competitive returns on stored funds. With Beans, you can seamlessly send and receive money, exchange currencies, and earn up to 10% on your balance.

Is KYC required?

Beans is a front-end software solution. Beans is not subject to supervision by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) and the Dutch Central Bank (DNB). We are not a bank nor a payment service provider within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Wft). Consequently, the deposit guarantee scheme does not apply to the services offered through the Beans platform. We do not provide any exchange services between virtual currencies and fiat currencies nor any custodial wallet services. This means that we are not a crypto service provider within the meaning of the Dutch Anti-Money Laundering Act (Wwft). Accordingly, we are not registered as a crypto service provider with DNB.

‍

How quickly will I receive the requested funds?

Can I withdraw anytime?

Yes. You can deposit or withdraw from your earn balance anytime, 24 / 7, with no minimum balance or upper limit on how much you can earn.

‍

Do I need a referral code?

No, a referral code is not required to sign up for the Beans app. You can easily create an account by following the standard registration process. However, using a referral code may unlock special benefits, such as bonuses, depending on the current promotions.

If you don’t have a referral code, no problem—you can still register and start using the app without any restrictions.

How do withdrawals work?

Just tap “Withdraw” in the app and confirm the transaction. Your funds are sent back to your wallet within seconds.
We cover the blockchain transaction fees, so you keep 100 % of the earnings you’ve made.

‍

Are there any fees or hidden costs?

No. There are no fees to deposit, withdraw, or earn.
The rate you see is net of any platform costs. Blockchain fees are sponsored by us.

‍

Do I need crypto knowledge?

Not at all. Beans Earn works just like a regular finance app.
You tap to move money in and out, and watch your balance grow — powered by blockchain, but without needing to understand it.

‍

Do I remain in self-custody?

Yes. Your money stays in a wallet that only you control. Beans cannot access, move, or freeze your funds — ever.

‍

Is my money safe?

Your money doesn’t go to Beans—we can’t touch it. Instead, it’s held in a secure automated system (called a smart contract) that follows strict rules and runs without human intervention.

Extra cushion: Every borrower deposits more than they borrow. If they can’t repay, that extra amount is sold to protect your balance.
Independent audits: The system was reviewed twice by leading security experts before launch.
Backup fund: A reserve pool helps cover rare shortfalls, adding another safety layer.

‍

What if a borrower doesn’t pay back?

Every borrower locks up more value than they borrow.
If they can’t repay, their collateral is automatically sold to cover the loan. A reserve fund provides an additional layer of protection.

‍

Can I lose money with Beans Earn?

Can I lose money with Beans Earn?
Beans Earn isn’t a traditional savings account, so there’s always some level of risk. That said, your money is protected in several ways:
• Borrowers must lock up more than they borrow
• The system is audited by independent experts
• A reserve fund is in place for added protection

We’ve built strong safeguards—but as with any investment, returns aren’t guaranteed. Only deposit what feels right for you.

‍

How safe are the smart contracts?

Beans Earn uses smart contracts from Blend Capital, a lending protocol built on the Stellar blockchain. These contracts are integrated and managed via Defindex, a strategy layer that automates how funds are deployed.

To protect users:

The core contracts have been audited twice by top security firms.
A bug bounty program is in place to catch new issues before they can cause harm.
All upgrades follow a time-locked process with full transparency on GitHub.

While no system is risk-free, the platform relies on tested infrastructure, industry-standard

‍

Is KYC required?

Not for using Earn.
However, if you fund your account through a bank transfer or cash deposit, you’ll need to complete a quick identity check.
If you deposit using cryptocurrency, no KYC is required.

‍

Where is the company regulated?

Beans Earn is a non-custodial interface offered by Beans BV in the Netherlands. We never hold users’ assets or private keys and therefore do not provide “custody of crypto-assets on behalf of third parties” as defined in EU MiCA Article 3.

‍

What happens if Beans Earn disappears tomorrow?

Your money is never held by Beans.
It stays in smart contracts that live on the blockchain — so even if the Beans app went offline, you could still access your funds using your keys.

‍

How can I track my performance?

To see what you earned so far you can navigate to your earn balance and click on the APY icon showing the actual rate. Clicking here will pop-up your total rewards from day 1.

‍

What risks should I know about?

While Beans Earn is built with strong protections, no investment is risk-free.
Risks include changes in market conditions, price drops in the assets used as collateral, or technical issues in the system. Beans Earn mitigates these, but they’re not eliminated. Never deposit more than you can afford to lose. Beans Earn is not a savings account, and it’s not government-insured.
