Glance Agrees to Licence Its Technology to Fobi Pay for $5 Million Dollars

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glance Technologies Inc. (CSE:GET.CN) (OTCQB:GLNNF) (FKT:GJT) announces that it has agreed to grant Fobi Pay Technologies Inc., a non-exclusive license to use the Glance Pay mobile payment, security, anti-fraud and Glance Coin blockchain technology for a $5 million fee for a one year initial term, renewable annually for $10,000 per year.

"Fobi Pay will offer big data analytics for networks of related businesses. Our value prop is in merging purchase basket and historical data with social media and mobile data to create highly personalized customer journeys," says Rob Anson, CEO of Fobi Pay. "By licensing the Glance technology we will be able to offer a closed loop digital media and mobile strategy for our industry partners."

IDC says that worldwide revenues for big data and business analytics will grow from $130.1 billion in 2016 to more than $203 billion in 2020 and that "Data monetization" will become a major source of revenues, as the world will create 180 zettabytes of data (or 180 trillion gigabytes) in 2025, up from less than 10 zettabytes in 2015.

Fobi Pay is also licensing big data analytics, social wifi and their real time offers engine platform from Fobisuite Technologies Inc. By combining the Glance and Fobisuite technologies, Fobi Pay will develop the technology for servicing a network of merchants localized around a common theme such as shopping centres, professional sports leagues, and tourist associations. Fobi Pay has the potential to capture data from itemized receipts, combine it with any preexisting online shopping histories, match to social media profiles and attribute the purchases to an individual shopper.

Fobi Pay's target clients will potentially be able to access big data analyzed and interpreted by artificial intelligence for retailers in the space and combine with a white label version of Glance Pay to allow their shoppers to process in-location mobile payments. Users of the white label app will potentially have access to Glance's cutting edge blockchain based loyalty rewards program, Glance Coin, as well as receive real-time exclusive and  personalized deals and coupons derived from big data analysis.

Additionally, Fobisuite has agreed to grant Glance a license to use Fobisuite's technology of which allows for the digitization of receipts for data collection and the ability to customize and append receipts with advertisements, deals and coupons for merchant for a fee of $1.5 million.

"Fobisuite's agnostic technology platform will allow us to bypass traditional integrations with POS systems to access real time bill and payment information, increasing the value of our systems for merchants and improving our merchant adoption rate," says Glance CEO Desmond Griffin. "Additionally, this opens up further revenue opportunities from real-time targeted advertising and big data analytics. We believe this is  complementary to our current Glance Pay platform and are excited to begin implementing this technology."

The following are the material terms of the agreement between Fobi Pay, Glance and Fobisuite:

• Glance will license the Glance Pay mobile payment platform technology to Fobi Pay in exchange for 20,000,000 shares of Fobi Pay, at a deemed price per share of $0.25, for an aggregate deemed value of $5,000,000.
