Zoompass Selects UVend Group of Companies as Self Serve Kiosk and Digital Partner


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 27, 2017) - Zoompass Holdings Inc. ("Zoompass" or the "Company") (OTCQB:ZPAS) is pleased to announce the following update on the Company's business and information objectives going forward.

Zoompass is pleased to announce, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, has agreed to an exclusive partnership with Canadian based UVend Group of Companies (UVG) to place UVG Digital Self-Serve Kiosk solutions with mobility cell phones and accessories into key markets and high volume retail locations. The partnership follows Zoompass's strategy of being a unique integrated fintech company by bridging mobility with a global mobile money platform. The company is well positioned to use UVG's tech savvy self-serve solutions within a global reach by leveraging its existing relationships and network within the national retailer, airport and mall channels.

The offering will leverage an "easy to purchase solution" where consumers can use their credit card / debit card through a UVG self-serve digital kiosk to purchase mobility devices and accessories for $250 or less. This will include prepaid SIM cards, gift cards and much more. These solutions are currently being used to increase cost savings while also being effective in reducing shrinkage and labour costs at any location.

"UVG is very excited that Zoompass has selected us as their Self-Serve Digital Kiosk partner. The concept will allow our technology to retail Zoompass and partner devices / accessories in high volume locations and on a global basis," says Paul Neelin, Founder of Burlington, Ontario based UVG.

Zoompass President Steve Roberts echoed this sentiment, "UVend Group of Companies is Canadian based and is definitely the 'best of breed' when it comes to next generation Digital, self-serve kiosks for the resale of devices and accessories. It follows the trend for retailers' needs of reducing staff costs as well as reducing overall theft of mobility devices and products as a whole. We look forward to working with UVG on an international basis in both traditional and non-traditional locations."

Private placements

Zoompass is also pleased to announce that during April it has completed several private placements which have raised approximately C$538,000 in gross proceeds through the issuance of 276,720 non-registered shares in the common stock of the Company.
