# Products (/docs/products)

**Bring your business to your customers**

Monime's products put your service where people in Sierra Leone already manage their money, with payments built in. Dash Dots run inside the Dash app. USSD Flows work on any phone, even without internet.

## Dash Dots

**Dash Dots** are mini apps that run inside Dash, Monime's app for sending and receiving money. Customers open your dot from Dash's Dots tab, with nothing new to download, and pay from a linked account, by card or with mobile money. You build the experience, and the payments come with it.

## USSD Flows

**USSD Flows** are menus that customers reach by dialling your short code, on any phone, including basic phones with no internet.
