Regulated Cannabis Industry Spawns Enterprises Providing a Diverse Array of Critical Support Services
CannabisNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The regulated cannabis industry has experienced phenomenal growth in the past few years as more states legalize the use of marijuana for either medical or recreational use. Currently, 29 states and the District of Columbia have laws regulating the use of cannabis in some form (http://cnw.fm/fV6lj). California, Washington, Oregon, Colorado and Alaska have the broadest laws for medical and recreational use of cannabis. This has impacted a wide range of companies in industry sectors that provide support services to cannabis growers, biotechnical product developers and retailers. Global Payout, Inc. (GOHE) (GOHE Profile) provides customized payment solutions that enable companies to process and manage electronic payments worldwide. Kush Bottles, Inc. (KSHB) offers packaging solutions for medical and recreational products in the cannabis industry. Terra Tech Corp. (TRTC) supplies hydroponic equipment to cannabis growers for indoor cultivation. General Cannabis Corp. (CANN) provides a range of services to the cannabis industry, including cultivation, production and retail aspects of the business. MassRoots, Inc. (MSRT) operates an online technology platform for the medical cannabis community in the United States.
Founded in 2009, Global Payout (GOHE) has become a leading provider of payment solutions for both domestic and international companies operating in diverse markets, including the rapidly developing cannabis industry. Many of these companies have identified the need to process payments through innovative solutions that provide fast and efficient service to customers all over the world. Global Payout enables global access to technology for optimizing financial transactions with an efficiency that the traditional banking sector cannot provide.
As a leader in financial technology (FinTech), the company has developed its web-based platform, called The Global Reserve Platform, that can be customized to meet the front-to-back office processing requirements of domestic, foreign exchange and international payment service providers. Apart from core and traditional banking products, it can process and manage a vast range of other financial products, including online banking, mobile wallets, card management, bill and P2P payments, loans management, international remittances, FOREX and SWIFT/ACH/SEPA payments. The Global Reserve Platform can be customized for enterprises in a wide range of market sectors worldwide to improve workflow, financial management and operational efficiency.
In 2015, Global Payout established its MoneyTrac Technology platform, which offers companies operating in alternative or “high-risk” industries the tools to streamline electronic payment processing, meet compliance regulations and develop an operational structure to facilitate business growth. This technology is perfectly aligned with the rapidly developing cannabis market where startups and entrepreneurs lack the support from the traditional banking sector to move initiatives forward and accelerate growth. Cannabis is still considered an illegal substance on federal level in the United States and as a result banks are not comfortable offering businesses in this industry access to electronic banking for secure payment. MoneyTrac Technology offers these companies an array of services designed to address their specific challenges by providing a secure solution to payment logistical problems. In August 2017, Global Payout’s subsidiary, MoneyTrac Technology, Inc., revealed their intent to incorporate cryptocurrency into their proprietary platform.
On November 30, 2017, it was announced that MoneyTrac would launch a publication for the cannabis industry, called PotSaver Biz, in collaboration with Global Payout’s PotSaver brand, a supplier of medical cannabis. The first release of this publication is scheduled for January 2018, and the company is confident that it will provide another revenue stream through paid listings by the ever-increasing number of enterprises in the cannabis industry. On December 13, 2017, Global Payout announced a collaboration with SinglePoint, Inc. (OTC: SING) to complement its existing payment and financial technology platforms. SinglePoint is a provider of full service mobile technology that will assist Global Payout in maximizing its existing suite of financial solutions.
