By downloading, installing, or using the Stratum Remit application, creating an account, or using any part of the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Service.

2. About Stratum Remit
Stratum Remit is a money remittance service that enables users in the United States to send money to recipients in supported countries. Stratum Remit is a product of Orokii Inc. (d/b/a Stratum Remit), a licensed money transmitter registered with the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System (NMLS #2116903).
The Service uses stablecoin technology (USDC and USDT) as the transfer mechanism. Users fund their Stratum Remit wallet with stablecoins, and the Service converts those stablecoins to the recipient's local currency for delivery to their bank account or mobile wallet.

“App” means the Stratum Remit mobile application available for download on iOS and Android devices.
“Recipient” means an individual designated by you to receive funds through the Service.
“Stablecoin” means a digital asset pegged to the value of the U.S. dollar, specifically USDC (USD Coin) or USDT (Tether), used to fund transfers through the Service.
“Supported Countries” means the countries to which the Service enables money transfers, as listed on the App and website and updated from time to time.

4. Account Registration
4.1 Eligibility
- (a)Be at least 18 years of age or the age of majority in your jurisdiction;
- (b)Be a resident of the United States;
- (c)Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information;
- (d)Not have been previously suspended or removed from the Service;
- (e)Not be located in, or a resident of, any country subject to U.S. sanctions.
4.2 Identity Verification
Federal and state regulations require us to verify your identity before you can use the Service. You agree to provide such identification documents and information as we may reasonably request, including but not limited to government-issued photo identification, proof of address, and Social Security number.
We offer tiered verification levels that correspond to transaction limits:
- Basic Verification: Transfers up to $2,999 per transaction
- Full Verification: Transfers up to $10,000+ per transaction
We reserve the right to request additional verification at any time to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
4.3 Account Security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You must notify us immediately at support@stratumremit.com if you become aware of any unauthorized access to or use of your account. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
5. How the Service Works
5.1 Funding Your Wallet
To initiate transfers, you must first fund your Stratum Remit Wallet with USDC or USDT. Stablecoins may be sent to your Wallet from an external exchange or wallet (such as Coinbase, Kraken, or Gemini) via supported blockchain networks:
- Stellar (recommended — lowest fees, approximately $0.01)
- Polygon (approximately $0.10 per transaction)
- TRON (approximately $1 per transaction)
- Ethereum (approximately $1–$10 per transaction)
Blockchain network fees are charged by the respective networks, not by Stratum Remit. You are responsible for all network fees incurred when funding your Wallet.
Important: When sending funds via the Stellar network, you must include the memo provided in the App. Failure to include the correct memo may result in the loss of funds, and Stratum Remit cannot guarantee recovery of funds sent without the correct memo.
5.2 Initiating Transfers
- (a)Using the Kora AI Assistant via text or voice commands (e.g., “Send $200 to Mom”);
- (b)Using the manual transfer interface within the App.
When you initiate a transfer, you will be shown the exchange rate, any applicable fees, the amount the Recipient will receive in local currency, and the estimated delivery time. You must confirm the transfer before it is processed.
5.3 Exchange Rates
Stratum Remit applies a margin to the mid-market exchange rate. This margin is typically 1–2% and is the primary way Stratum Remit earns revenue. The exact exchange rate for your transfer will be displayed before you confirm the transaction. Once you confirm, the quoted rate is locked for 30 minutes to allow you to complete the transfer.
5.4 Transfer Fees
Stratum Remit charges zero transfer fees. There are no sending fees, receiving fees, service charges, or processing fees. The exchange rate margin described in Section 5.3 is the only cost applied by Stratum Remit.
Stablecoin purchase fees charged by third-party exchanges (typically 0.5–1.5%) and blockchain network fees are not charged by Stratum Remit and are outside our control.
5.5 Delivery
Most transfers are delivered within minutes. Some corridors may take up to 15 minutes depending on the destination country, Recipient's financial institution, and local payment infrastructure. You will receive real-time tracking updates within the App, and the Recipient will be notified upon delivery.
5.6 Transaction Limits
| Verification Level | Minimum | Maximum per Transaction |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Verification | $10 | $2,999 |
| Full Verification | $10 | $10,000+ |
Stratum Remit may impose additional daily, weekly, or monthly limits to comply with applicable laws and regulations. Current limits are displayed in the App.

6.2 AI Limitations
