CashOnLedger and Lindner Tractors Announce A Strategic Partnership
Cologne — October 1, 2020 — CashOnLedger Technologies GmbH and Lindner Traktorenwerk GmbH announce they have entered into a partnership, combining the CashOnLedger’s expertise in the field of blockchain and programmable currencies and Lindner’s experience in the manufacturing and rental of machinery.
We are excited to announce the partnership between CashOnLedger and Lindner Traktoren. Through this partnership, our aim is to increase the efficiency of Pay-Per-Use rental models using a robust blockchain-based solution. CashOnLedger specializes in technical solutions for programmable currencies, using blockchain technology, while optimizing business processes. Lindner Traktoren is a renowned manufacturing firm, producing tractors and transporters, with over 70 years of expertise.
Blockchain technology offers a variety of unique properties that can improve aspects of existing business processes. Currently, many business models, including the vehicle rentals, rely on highly inefficient and costly manual processes. The aim of our partnership is to maximize the efficiency of transactions between the parties as well as gathering of data for inventory optimization.
CashOnLedger provides a regulatory compliant solution for programmable money, which digitizes the payment claim and links it to traditional payment networks (e.g. SEPA) to ensure the mutlibank capability. This automation & digitization increases the efficiency by cutting down process costs. Having a fast transaction process and lower costs have other implications that would lead to a shorter cash conversion cycle and the release of tied-up capital
“We want to integrate IoT machines into the economic cycle through financial transactions”, says Serkan Katilmis, the co-founder and CEO of CashOnLedger. The partnership will aim to achieve a more dynamic pay-per-use rental model by integrating the vehicles into the blockchain network. The automated rental and billing processes can be achieved by utilizing Smart Contracts. The solution also allows for a more precise cashflow forecast since all the transactions between the parties are occurring on the blockchain network.
“For us this collaboration is the technological basis for automating our rental processes. We are able to reduce our processing efforts, to maximize the efficiency and to create transparency for our customers”, says David Lindner, Head of Export and Marketing of Lindner.
As the global economies are realizing the potential of programmable currencies and are increasing their efforts to study the potential implications, this project can be an important example of how digital currencies improve our existing financial markets.
