SPEND is Cardstack's neutral pricing unit designed for Card Pay.

We have created SPEND to operate as a globalized pricing unit that functions as a tool of measurement and sensemaking just like any other currency. https://medium.com/cardstack/introducing-spend-d76372368d0#e276

Card Pay provides fast, cheap and easy payments. It remedies the problem of high transactional fees by operating on layer 2. If you haven't already, catch these demos by Chris Tse on Card Pay's payment and withdrawal workflows. https://medium.com/cardstack/card-pay-fast-cheap-easy-7ca236ed59b3

What we need is a non-sovereign, non-pegged currency that’s not priced in USD or EUR. There have been a handful of attempts to achieve this, but none have entirely succeeded. Achieving stable currency is key to generating financial inclusion. https://medium.com/cardstack/introducing-spend-d76372368d0#ef70
An NFT priced at 1 ETH in September 2020 (was ~$350) would now be asking $4000 today. This volatility excites only the most freewheeling of speculators, not the world at large. https://medium.com/cardstack/introducing-spend-d76372368d0#72da
SPEND is backed by DAI, so it allows for decentralized exchange rates to occur.

What is the goal of SPEND?

Your wallet may be filled with various currencies that fluctuate, but when you want to make purchases or trades, you can rely on SPEND as a pricing unit to ensure neutrality.
