Killi Expands Total Available Market to 400 Million

New Zealand becomes Killi's Fifth Market; More International Market Expansions Planned

TORONTO, Feb. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ - Freckle Ltd. (TSXV: FRKL) announced today that Killi, a wholly owned consumer-led privacy application, expanded its identity product to New Zealand, bringing Killi's presence to a total of five international markets comprising a total addressable market of over 400 million people¹.

"APAC is a continuing focus for expanding Killi," said CEO Neil Sweeney. "New Zealand was a natural addition to our distribution plan given its proximity to our Australian and Singapore markets.  Adding to our U.S. and Canadian footprints, Killi's total addressable market is now over 400 million people—approximately 5% of the global population—with three further geographical expansions planned for the next quarter and additional countries to be added throughout the rest of 2020."

"We aspire to be the global leader in consumer privacy, making it imperative that we continue to expand Killi to additional markets. We also believe that certain industry catalysts will hasten Killi's adoption. In particular, with recent changes to privacy and cookie depreciation within Google's Chrome browser, the need for 'consented data not dependent on the cookie' - from email, for example - is growing in demand.  Killi sits at the intersection of these two macro trends and is focused on scaling its products both geographically and via new revenue modules to capitalize upon this global opportunity."
