Introduction

Welcome to CAV Creation

Community Asset Vouchers (CAVs) are offers for goods or services, published on a public decentralized ledger called Celo. They are similar to loyalty points or gift cards or certificates for actions completed. This guide will help you design and publish a CAV.

Process Overview

  1. About you: Who are you as the Issuer creating and publishing the CAV?
  2. Naming & Purpose: What's your CAV's name and what does it represent?
  3. Valuation & Amount: How many CAVs do you want to create and what's their total worth?
  4. Expiry: Does your CAV expire over time and where are they renewed?
  5. Finalization: Here, you'll sign and publish your CAV on the Celo ledger.

The essence of a CAV is to develop a formal commitment or contractual promise that can be offered and exchanged.


For example, if you create a CAV called COUCH, you could specify that 1 COUCH is redeemable as payment for 1 hour of your coaching. Another CAV called WAVE could be proof of one hour of water cathment services.


Some CAV issuers will sell their CAVs, while others will give them as gifts, certificates, loyalty points, or exchange them in pools. Note that anyone holding your CAV has the right to trade them to someone else or redeem them as payment for your goods or services depending on how you design them in this guide.


The CAV's ultimate aim is community improvement. When planning it, listen to everyone who may be affected by it.
