Starting from its inception, WeBank has adopted fully distributed technologies to build the first distributed core banking system in China . Because of its similarity to the natural beehive, WeBank calls this set of financial-grade distributed technologies Openhive.
While serving hundreds of millions of individual customers and MSMEs, Openhive enables WeBank to be flexible and scalable to support over 1 billion daily peak transactions. Its record time from new product ideation to live launch is 10 days. The Openhive-based core banking system also leads to affordable equipment and maintenance costs, no branch operation costs and low labor costs.

Its annual IT operation and maintenance cost per account is only 0.3 US dollars /year, roughly one-tenth of the industry average. With the cost-effective banking system, WeBank is able to navigate the innovative path of sustainable inclusive finance.
Besides the successful case of WeBank, the Openhive solution has been adopted by top digital banks in Southeast Asia . Openhive enables them to build distributed core banking systems that could support sustainable inclusive finance to their longtail unbanked and underbanked market.
