    What is Kova?

    A dollar wallet for your phone. Hold dollars, pay shops, send to anyone, spend with a dollar card and cash out to your bank. It runs on Monad, so payments land in about a second.

    Where are my dollars kept?

    In your own wallet, as AUSD, a dollar stablecoin issued by Agora. Only your phone can move them. Money you put on the dollar card is held by our card partner until you spend it or move it back.

    What does it cost?

    Sending to another Kova wallet is free: Kova pays the network fee. Sending to another network has a delivery fee, and cashing out may include a rate or fee. Every cost is shown before you confirm.

    Where can I cash out?

    Banks and mobile money in 17 currencies, including the US, Canada, the UK, the euro area, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, the UAE, Australia, Singapore and the Philippines.

    What if I lose my phone?

    Your passkey syncs with your Apple or Google account, so a new phone opens the same wallet. You can also restore it with your 24 recovery words.

    Is Kova a bank?

    No. Kova is a self-custody wallet: the dollars stay yours and in your control. Kova never lends them out.
