$WEYL According to Export.gov, more than 85 percent of Taiwanese citizens are connected to the Internet and more than 70 percent access the Internet using a smartphone device, making it one of the most connected consumer bases in the world. Further, a significant portion of the population is now shopping on mobile devices. In Taiwan, 48 percent of all online transactions are mobile-based, and this number is expected to reach 61 percent by 2022.

“Given these favorable market dynamics, we are excited to partner with the esteemed Joseph Kay and his Now Mastery organization to launch CreateApp in Taiwan,” commented Weyland CEO, Brent Suen. “We expect even a small penetration of their large following to result in a significant contribution to our recurring revenue stream by the end of the first quarter.”

Weyland’s recent acquisition of Minneapolis-based Push Interactive is also expected to provide lead-generation tools for Taiwanese SMBs to increase their online sales.
