IQST - iQSTEL Plans Reg CF Fundraising Where Investors Receive Visa Prepaid Debit Card As Investment Incentive

NEW YORK, Nov. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- iQSTEL, Inc. (OTC: IQST)("iQSTEL"), an international telecommunication and fintech service provider, recently announced a new Visa Prepaid Debit Card Service (PDCS) expected to generate estimated revenue over five years of $45 million to $128 million with an approximate EBITDA margin of 30% to 40%.

IQST has entered into an agreement with Payment Virtual Mobile Solutions, LLC (PayVMS) to build a PDCS.  The new PDCS will be constructed under a new corporation named Global Money One, Inc. (www.globalmoneyone.com). iQSTEL will own 75% of Global Money One, Inc. with PayVMS owning the other 25%.

Global Money One, Inc. is a Delaware corporation.  IQST plans to make 24% of Global Money One available for sale in conjunction with a fund-raising initiative to finance the launch of the PDCS.  IQST further plans to utilize Regulation Crowd Funding (Reg CF) as the foundation of its strategic approach to fund-raising to finance the PDCS.

PDCS is expected to enable customers to make purchases in stores and online, withdraw cash at ATMs or receive cash back when using it to make a purchase, recharge prepaid mobile phone service (domestic and international), and send money domestically or internationally. PDCS is expected to also facilitate the deposit of funds into bank accounts, rewards and digital gift cards.  In addition, PDCS customers are expected to be able to execute bill payments and remote deposit capture (RDC) by mobile phone.

IQST Reg CF strategy has two objectives. One is to raise funds for the PDCS business, the other is to simultaneously develop an initial customer base by giving individuals that participate in the Reg CF investment a Global Money One Pre-Paid Visa card.  Stay tuned to learn more as IQST's solidifies plans.
