RevoluGROUP’s Strategy for The World Remittance Market
As previously announced to shareholders, the fully functional proprietary bank licensed RevoluPAY App has the ability to deliver e-wallet funds to any SEPA or Swift affiliated bank account in 73: Pan-European, Eastern European countries plus, certain nations in the Middle East. RevoluPAY app-to-bank transfer inflows into these countries has been operating successfully for some time. The company then began focusing upon the most ubiquitous worldwide remittance flows, which involve physical cash collection using RevoluPAY, particularly applicable for unbanked remittance beneficiaries or world travelers. On June 29th, 2018, shareholders were informed that RevoluPAY S.L. had signed an NDA with a Top 40 World Banking Institution for remittance cash collections in 16 Central/South American and Caribbean countries. Said Bank successfully completed the compliance visit at RevoluPAY headquarters in Barcelona on the 4th of November. The company is now awaiting final approval from the Bank to sign the final bilateral agreement that has been in the possession of both parties for quite some time. Likewise, the company has steadfastly pursued additional negotiations to engender RevoluPAY cash collection with other internationally licensed entities, signing MOUs with potential cash delivery partners in: Peru, Ecuador, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Mexico. Additionally, three more MOUs today for Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay. A similar objective is being pursued with today’s new Bank MOU which, if ongoing negotiations are fruitful, could add full banking services to RevoluPAY in Ecuador. From the aforementioned MOUs, the company has signed a Definitive agreement for Costa Rica on August 28th 2019 with EZPAY and, remains confident that the other pending MOUs will likewise now convert into Definitive Agreements at an increased cadence. Should the company’s strategies succeed, RevoluPAY remittance beneficiaries in most of Central/South America and the Caribbean will be able to visit thousands of locations to collect cash. For those worldwide nations not yet covered for local partner cash collection, the company will initiate inflows via the RevoluPAY Visa Card and, simultaneously seek local partners. The RevoluPAY Visa Card is currently being tested by management and beta testers around the world and, thus far, has functioned flawlessly in ATMs and Merchants accepting Visa. The final launch and, worldwide delivery of the proprietary Visa Card to RevoluPAY app users is now imminent. Concerning the major bulk of Asia, the company previously announced an NDA with a large Chinese payment conglomerate with whom it anticipates making final headway in early 2020. Management wishes to express to shareholders that while the remittance aspect of the company’s business would appear to have been somewhat relegated, this is far from the truth. Management has meticulously worked and, will continue to strive, to ensure that RevoluPAY app users, wherever they may be, have access to immediate cash at the lowest possible cost, allied to a myriad of in-app options to transfer funds electronically from app to bank accounts of their choosing or, to their linked RevoluPAY Visa Card.
