DFIN has multiple programs designed to bank and lower banking and payment fees for native Americans and their business. This includes local digital currency and nationwide digital currency for all Americans.

Unlike typical payment and banking systems, the Paymency network gives power to the Tribal Nation, often useing a Casino that will function like a bank and merchant payment network.

Imagine a Sovereign Financial System used by all Americans but based upon Tribal Sovereignty. The Tribe or Tribes would issue a nationwide Stable Value Currency that will be available to all. The new network would not use current payment networks like Visa and would have minimal interface with banks.
