2018 News Releases

Vancouver, BC - CUV Ventures Corp. (TSX-V: CUV) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a definitive agreement ("DA") with Vesilen Investments for the initial seed funding, for short to medium term loans and factoring platform RevoluFIN, for up to 40 million Euros (approx 63 million CAD). Reveals future plans for RevoluCharge and RevoluVIP.com

RevoluFIN financing platform

The renamed platform is visible in pre-public beta version at www.RevoluFIN.com. CUV Ventures and Vesilen Investments are to launch a proprietary financing platform to facilitate short to medium terms loans and factoring for transactions, both private and international, with an initial capitalization of 40 million Euros (approx 63 million CAD). All seed capital for loans is to be provided by partner Vesilen Investments. The RevoluFIN finance platform intends to provide payment facilities for commercial Letter of Credit (LC) holders, and short term financing requirements. Secondly, the platform will focus upon stimulating the nascent self employed economies around the world, in travel related services, sold through the company’s and partner websites, giving entrepreneurs access to much needed capital, while securitizing loans through pre-booking retentions. Through RevoluFIN, CUV Ventures Corp hopes to assemble numerous deals it has identified over the past 12 months, which could directly impact the company’s revenues, especially in the; Hospitality, Travel & Media sectors. Additionally, the RevoluFIN platform hopes to enable third party financiers to directly finance outstanding secured receivables while obtaining above market interest returns of between 8 and 9.5%. RevoluFIN should appeal to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking for an improved way of working capital financing by selling their outstanding means of payment collection from sales in international markets (typically LC and Secured Drafts) by transferring the credit rights to RevoluFIN and, its financiers. Contrary to traditional invoice finance, RevoluFIN will be fast, flexible and employ transparent contract terms.

Highlights of the Definitive agreement with Vesilen Investments

  • Up to 40 million Euros (63 million Canadian dollars) Financing
  • Annualized interest to seed investor partners 9.5%
  • Approximate annualized commercial loans at 14.5%
  • Risk Committee consisting of 6 members to vote on loan approvals
  • 3 risk committee members from CUV Ventures
  • 3 risk committee members from Vesilen Investments

RevoluFIN potential finance market

The company has identified the initial market to be approximately $3 billion; therefore, the seed capital acquired through this initial definitive agreement is considered to be just the launch proceeds of the platform. The company continues to negotiate similar terms with previously cited; Bhavnani Corp, Al-Fahim and other groups. It also publicly offers capital investors the opportunity to participate, via the RevoluFIN website.

RevoluCHARGE Mobile phone recharges

The company has identified a niche market closely related to the world remittance market. The market is automatic online or app based mobile phone recharges in developing nations, generally enacted by families and friends outside country. This multi-billion dollar market is therefore directly related to Revolupay and should be an integral part of the payment offers from within the app, along with stand-alone future website www.RevoluCHARGE.com and accompanying mobile app. The company is studying various options, including certain entities that provide wholesale white label automated recharges in 248 Countries & 117 currencies, with commissions ranging from 5 to 15% for resellers. CUV Ventures feels that the mobile recharge market is a natural fit for its Revolupay remittance customers.

RevoluVIP Member Only Travel Club

The company plans to launch www.RevoluVIP.com further to it becoming a duly licensed Amadeus GDS (Global Distribution System) travel provider. Amadeus is one of the world’s largest providers of wholesale rates to the travel industry, only accessible by duly certified travel professionals.

The current travel industry we know today, in a retail format, is largely an amalgamation of GDS derived travel offers, exposed on third-part retail websites, and subject to individual mark-ups by the web based travel retailers. To launch RevoluVIP, the company intends to work closely with companies associated with management and insiders to deploy a white-label, members only, travel club across over 800 country specific websites, such as CanadaVIP.com, AmericaVIP and, all other websites within the VIP group (see footer). The club will be for members only; services may only be purchased by members using their Revolupay app, with an annual Travel Club membership fee applicable. The three levels of membership will provide varying degrees of discount, diamond being the highest, with close to net rates applicable. Annual membership under Diamond status is projected to be $200 USD, meaning that in a single trip of just $2000, the membership dues would probably be recouped, leading to heavy member savings on all future trips during the remaining annual term. The company’s target is 1 million members within 2 years.
