Connect the World is an initiative that brings together wallets and payment providers who seek to offer high-quality on and off ramps for users who wish to access Celo assets. The Celo Foundation is offering a number of rewards for CICO providers who successfully integrate FiatConnect and meet the quality standards of the program. The goal of this program is to develop high-quality on and off ramps to Celo assets in 100+ countries by April 2023.
