May 21, 2019 – Toronto, Ontario – Newt Corporation (“Newt” or the “Company”) is
pleased to announce the signing of Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and
Revenue Sharing Agreement (RSA) with 10VIA SA de CV (commercially known as “10
VIA”) last week in Mexico City, Mexico.
As per the terms of the MOU, Newt’s signing of a Technology Integration and Revenue
Sharing Agreement will integrate dynamics of the systems of both companies to provide
Newt’s platform with a full functionality of vendors existing in 10 VIA’s bill payment
system. The two parties have agreed to initially engage in a revenue sharing agreement and
to cooperate on additional opportunities arising in the future. Newt believes that the future
collaboration between two entities will fulfill each other’s gaps in the business and will
enable Newt’s platform to make a leap forward in the payment transfer and prepaid market.
Sergio Maya, CEO of 10 VIA, mentioned: “The successful integration of 10VIA’s Bill
Payment system with Newt is an exciting opportunity to attract customers from a different
market and expand our transactional volume. We have been operating successfully in the
Mexican Market for the last few years, and our system is flawless. 10VIA handles
transactions in the areas of Mobile Money, Mobile payments, Ticketing and Coupons,
digital wallets, electronic wallets, QR code integration, integrated card payment methods,
and reconciliation systems. In the future, 10Via system intends to provide connections to
governmental and municipal tax payment systems, in order to allow the users to directly
pay their personal or business tax bills to local municipalities.”
Steven Hoffmann, CEO of Newt Corporation, said: “The implementation of 10VIA’s
Bill Payment System will be a win-win strategy for both Newt and 10VIA. This horizontal
integration will create instant functionality on Newt’s Platform and will provide Bill
Payment function to more than 500 utility service providers in Mexico, including gas,
electricity, telephone, mobile phone, and the planned addition of the governmental and
municipal tax payment systems in the future.”
