UPDATE - Finger Motion Subsidiary, JiuGe, Lands Top-up Cooperation Deal with Large E-commerce Giant Giving Direct Access to its Subscriber Base


HONG KONG, Feb. 26, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FingerMotion, Inc. (OTC Markets: FNGR), a mobile payment and recharge platform company, is pleased to announce the rapid expansion of its top-up initiatives with a cooperation deal through its wholly owned subsidiary JiuGe Information Technology (“JiuGe”) and a large e-commerce company.  After integration is achieved, this deal represents the large e-commerce giant’s first exposure to B2C services on the platform. The primary thrust of the cooperation deal allows JiuGe to offer its mobile recharge and top up services directly to the end consumer or subscribers of China Unicom. China Unicom, the 2nd largest mobile telecom provider in China, had more than 385.5 million mobile subscribers in 2018.

In the past month of beta service, the Finger Motion team has focused on improving the user experience by optimising its backend platform and integrated response services. During this beta period, the Company transacted more than 20,000 orders every day, with a Gross Transaction Value (GTV) of more than 1 million RMB (USD $125,000) daily.  This activity level will see an exponential increase when Finger Motion makes the platform available to all of the large e-commerce giant’s registered users.

“Our monthly GTV is very strong with our current initiatives, but we believe this cooperation agreement with the large e-commerce giant could reshape our trajectory significantly higher over the coming months” said Martin J. Shen, CEO of FingerMotion.  “We have been approached by top tier e-commerce platforms that understand our value added business model, and we believe that they will likely be watching our rollout with this large e-commerce giant with keen interest.  The payment and recharge platform business scales very quickly as we have demonstrated from our beta test.  We believe a successful rollout would strongly position the company for expansion, but our business model has a structural need for capital in order t sustain the exponential growth.  It’s important for shareholders to realize that we are keenly aware that only long term financial partners offering non-dilutive financing fit within our business model.  This is just one of the reasons why we will be seeking to uplist, initially to the OTCQB platform, and thereafter to a senior US exchange, in the coming months.”
