AppTech Executes Agreement to Expand Launch of Mobile-to-Mobile Payment System to Mexico and Brazil Enabling Cross-Border Remittance

AppTech Payments Corp. (“AppTech”) (NASDAQ: APCX), a leading specialty payments company, today announced the amendment of its Strategic Partnership Agreement with InstaCash, Inc. (“InstaCash”). The amendment will extend InstaCash’s mobile-to-mobile payment system license to Brazil and Mexico.

“The extension of our agreement with InstaCash further reinforces AppTech’s differentiated Fintech platform, as we continue to scale globally,” said Luke D’Angelo, Chief Executive Officer of AppTech.

InstaCash, Inc. is a peer-to-peer instant payment app similar to Venmo, Zelle, and Cash App but will offer cross-border remittance, lower transfer fees and more advanced security protocols. The payment system will facilitate consumer-to-consumer or person-to-person (“P2P”) transactions. Customers will be able to send instant payments by mobile phone to friends and family while traditional methods such as Western Union allow customers to pay in-store.

AppTech will develop mobile and web-based applications for the contactless payment system, which will feature digital banking services and debit card solutions. AppTech will also provide user support services and maintains an equity stake in InstaCash. Please visit instacash.cash to receive launch alerts.
