Lynx Global Subsidiary DA5 Announces
Partnership with Globe Telecom's GCash
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 8, 2021) -
Lynx Global Digital Finance
Corporation
(CSE: LYNX) (OTC Pink: CNONF) (FSE: 3CT0)
("Lynx" or the "Company")
is
pleased to declare that its subsidiary
Direct Agent 5 Inc. ("DA5"),
has completed integration of the
GCash ewallet ("GCash") into the DA5 physical location infrastructure and each of its two (2) mobile app
platforms. Based on '
App Annie'
surveys, an authority in ranking digital applications (apps) worldwide,
GCash has become the Philippines number one finance app and stands among the top apps in the
country overall for both Android and iOS platforms.
As told by the Philippines News Agency, February 15, 2021, Mynt, the operator of GCash and a
subsidiary of Globe Telecom Inc., stated "its base of registered users has grown to over
33 million at
the end of 2020
-- 65 percent higher compared to 20 million users recorded at end of 2019. GCash
exceeded its targets in 2020 with transaction values hitting over PHP1 trillion, peaking at a PHP7.5
billion daily gross transaction value, and with more than 6 million transactions in a day. Transactions
include cash-ins, payments, banking, and money transfer, among others."
Christopher Aldaba, President of Asia-Pacific for Lynx Global stated, "The capabilities provided by the
DA5 network fit perfectly to service the needs of GCash.
The 2,350 ever-expanding domestic physical
brick and mortar DA5 branches offer GCash countrywide geographic coverage for its users to access
cash-in/cash-out locations for offline transactions. Both the DA5 mobile app and the recently launched
'Swipe'
app provide GCash with platform solutions to facilitate GCash for online and mobile ewallet
transactions.
With the recent and rapid integration of the DA5 '
rails
' to international physical locations
around the World, GCash can now have its ewallet utilized by Filipinos physical cash-in/cash-out or
digital or mobile ewallet transactions in those international markets where DA5 has integrated its
network infrastructure -
for the first time to my knowledge, our DA5 partnership can assist GCash to go
global
."
"As I explained recently, since joining Lynx Global I have already directly expanded my brand to Vietnam,
Canada, Australia, and Singapore.
Additionally, I announced a recent partnership that gives DA5 the
ability to integrate the DA5 financial rails and the DA5 mobile app into an additional global network of
over 320,000 physical cash-in/cash-out locations.
This partnership with GCash provides substantial
potential mutual benefits. GCash is without a doubt the most widely used ewallet in the Philippines today.
DA5 is aggressively expanding to international markets, and in doing so, our global integrations can
offer GCash the platform to expand its footprint globally - it is a true win-win for GCash and DA5 - we are
without question a pair of truly innovative world-class Philippine companies," shared Raymond Babst,
Founder and CEO of DA5.
According to a report by ResearchandMarkets.com, the mobile wallet market size was valued in excess
of $1 Trillion USD in 2019 and is projected to reach over $7.5 Trillion USD by 2027, growing at a CAGR
of 28.2% from 2020 to 2027.
As reported by Statista on May 12, 2021, in 2020, digital and mobile wallets accounted for roughly 45
percent of global e-commerce payment transactions, making the digital wallet by far the most popular
online payment method worldwide. This share is set to increase to over 50 percent in 2024. Digital and
mobile wallets were globally the leading choice when buying online - for instance, the digital or mobile
wallet was most popular in the Asia Pacific Region, where it accounted for approximately 60 percent of
e-commerce transactions in 2020.
