The project involves developing a comprehensive FinTech application using Node.js and various FinTech APIs. The application will provide users with functionalities to create and manage invoices, generate virtual cards, create virtual accounts, and facilitate payments in different currencies. Users will have access to a dashboard to track their balances, manage transactions, create invoices, handle wallets, and set up notifications.
The platform will also allow for currency conversion, withdrawal of funds, and viewing of account statements. This project will be a full-featured FinTech solution that caters to both business and personal financial needs.
