To help cash-strapped citizens, Quikr and Nasscom have launched CashNoCash.com, the crowd-sourced site that helps users across India find the nearest ATM, bank or post-office to get insights on cash availability and waiting time in queues for cash exchange or withdrawal.

It also offers users a chance to report this information back to the site there by contributing to real-time updates at each mapped cash point.

“The scale of problem is humongous. The government and financial institutions are doing everything they can. This is our team’s effort to help the cause by using technology and knowledge of the crowd. The support we’ve received is great, Quikr is a forward looking technology company and offers a stimulating and fertile environment for like minded people.” said Manjunath Talwar and Abhijit Khasnis, Co-Founders of Hiree – a Quikr company.
