For enterprises, treasury management requires balancing two competing needs: absolute, battle-tested security and operational agility. Traditional blockchain setups often force a choice between these priorities. Highly secure multisigs can be cumbersome to use, while simplified wallets lack the granular controls that CFOs and Fund Managers require.
Join Pro aimed to bridge this gap for companies that aren’t crypto-native. They needed to offer industry-leading onchain security through Safe (formerly Gnosis Safe), paired with a modern neobank interface rather than a developer-focused tool.
The Solution: Modular Security via Candide
Join Pro leveraged Candide’s account abstraction stack to simplify Safe’s complexity through a seamless dashboard. This architecture enabled three critical achievements.
Invisible blockchain. Most enterprises prefer not managing gas tokens or understanding transaction signing nuances. Using Candide’s gas abstraction, Join Pro allows companies to pay for transactions in stablecoins or through corporate relays, eliminating the friction of holding native gas tokens.
Granular governance with DeFi modules. Built on Safe’s framework via Candide, Join Pro implemented Safe Modules and Plugins to create sophisticated DeFi Manager roles. This enables delegating specific operator permissions to team members for managing assets or yield positions within defined limits, without granting full treasury control.
Atomic batching for complex flows. Standard wallets require four or five separate approvals for operations like moving funds into yield protocols. Candide’s batch operations collapse these into single-click experiences for complex DeFi interactions.
The Extension of the Team Philosophy
Enterprise infrastructure rarely functions as plug-and-play. Join Pro selected Candide as a partner understanding the ecosystem’s underlying architecture.
A pivotal moment occurred when Join Pro faced a Safe transaction service bottleneck. Rather than offering workarounds, Candide’s team functioned as an extension of Join’s engineering department, identifying the issue and submitting a Pull Request directly to upstream Safe infrastructure. This preserved Join Pro’s 100% uptime for mission-critical institutional products.
The Outcome: A New Standard for Onchain Neobanks
Join Pro successfully scaled from a retail product to a robust institutional offering by leveraging Candide’s stack:
- Security is non-negotiable. Utilizing the industry’s most audited smart contract framework in Safe.
- UX is effortless. Removing crypto hurdles like gas management and multi-step signing.
- Ownership is absolute. Built on open standards, preventing proprietary vendor lock-in.
