# Use Cases

Squads is a powerful primitive that enables a variety of use-cases related to self-custody and account abstraction. Here are few of the major use-cases for Squads' tools:

### **Configurable App Vaults**

Use Squads to custody funds associated with your app, and allow various stakeholders to have control over the flow of these funds. An example of this would be a crowdfunding app, where funds raised are custodied in Squads, with the fundraiser admins and members of the app team as members.

### **Custom User Interfaces**

Use the Squads v4 SDK to create a custom UI, built to your liking for your Squad. This allows for a bespoke smart account experience, and less dependency on Squads' official services. For reference, check out our [public UI](https://github.com/Squads-Protocol/squads-v4-public-ui).

### Squads Blinks

Build custom Solana actions and blockchain links (blinks) associated with a Squad that are shareable on a variety of websites like X.
