Consider the following scenario:
- M needs to transfer money from a bank account in Malaysia to a bank account in Thailand
 
- T needs to transfer money from a bank account in Thailand to a bank account in Malaysia
 
- They both go to a bank/Western Union to make the transfer and get charged service fees and exchange rate costs
 
Consider an alternative scenario:
- M needs to transfer money from a bank account in Malaysia to a bank account in Thailand
 
- T needs to transfer money from a bank account in Thailand to a bank account in Malaysia
 
- M transfers money to T's bank account in Malaysia
 
- T transfers money to M's bank account in Thailand
 
- That would be ideal if the amount transferred match exactly
 
- Enter X who has accounts in Malaysia and Thailand
 
- M transfers money to X's account in Malaysia
 
- T transfers money to X's account in Thailand
 
- X transfers money to M's account in Thailand
 
- X transfers money to T's account in Malaysia
 
- X provides two service:
 
- Escrow
 
- Market matching
 
Essentially, I should be able to transfer money between Thailand and Malaysia cheaply.
