Overview
YAP is PAY backwards -- and that's what we're here to simplify. Working with RAKBANK, we created a digital banking app that gives everyone financial control. The idea for YAP came to life when a group of like-minded individuals were having dinner and realized how difficult it was to perform a simple online transaction or transfer money digitally -- especially for people who depend on them.
