Kiva Protocol
Kiva Protocol
Kiva will sunset operations of Kiva Protocol, effective June 30, 2022. To learn more, read the announcement on our blog.
Kiva Protocol was designed to break this cycle with a decentralized digital identity platform empowering financially underserved individuals to verify informal and formal past financial history. With just a thumbprint, users could be able to record their financial transactions, transfer that information between institutions, and gain access to formal bank accounts.
Selected as the best solution to “ensure the inclusivity of ID systems for vulnerable groups” worldwide.

Designed to be deployed at national scale, and implemented in conjunction with modernized regulatory frameworks, Protocol launched in 2018 to enable countries to advance financial inclusion goals and empower entire financial ecosystems – individuals, government agencies, informal market actors, and formal financial institutions.
Working with partners at the Bank of Sierra Leone, the National Civil Registration Authority, and UN Capital Development Fund, Kiva launched the first country-level implementation of Kiva Protocol in Sierra Leone in 2019.
