uBUCK is the world’s ONLY stable digital token that is backed dollar-for-dollar by the US dollar when it comes to PIN Voucher sales. This completely eliminates the typical volatility concerns that come with most digital currencies.

uBUCK can be instantly converted into US dollars, unlike traditional exchanges or money transfer businesses and comes with access to traditional payment methods through the proprietary uBUCK Visa, which is connected to the uBUCK Pay digital wallet —allowing users to pay bills, and withdraw money from ATMs wherever Visa is accepted around the globe.

uBUCK is a perfect vehicle for the crowds of people that will be looking to cash their bitcoin into cash right away, rather than selling on an exchange, which can be costly and time consuming.

Among the crowds of people dying for a better payment solution are esports gamers. Through a strategic partnership with Enthusiast Gaming (the largest publicly traded video game media and esports company in North America with 200 million monthly unique users), esports enthusiasts will have access to uBUCK’s leading digital wallet and payments platform as a commission-free and highly-secure alternative to traditional payment methods.

Now with three major deals in place,, a partnership with one of the largest loyalty rewards platform already with millions of users, and one of the largest esports gaming communities in the world, uBUCK is primed to capture a major market share in a very short amount of time.

But Wait, There’s More … uBuck is Also Targeting the Massive-Sized “Underbanked” and “Unbanked” Markets!

While the use of digital wallets and electronic payments has been exponentially on the rise around the world there has still remained a large segment of people who use mobile banking services very little or not at all – these are the “underbanked” and “unbanked.”

LiteLink Technologies Inc.’s (CSE:LLT) (OTC:LLNKFuBuck platform aims to give these markets fast, easy access to free transfers.

Let’s take a closer look at what is going on around the world.

First, we can see that society is quickly moving toward a cashless economy through statistics like these:

  • In China, 583.4 million people[1] are already using mobile payment transactions.
  • Leading P2P digital payment company Venmo is expected to have 22.9 million US users by year’s end and Zelle is expected to have 27.4 million.

Now at the same time that mobile payments are becoming more common, there are still hundreds of millions of people around the world who are not using mobile banking to send money and pay bills (the “underbanked” and “unbanked”).  In the US, this represents 25.2% of the population.  That’s a staggering 32.6 million out of 129.3 million households!

According to a study by PYMNTS.com, “More than two in five of these underbanked households already use mobile banking to access their accounts. But only a quarter use a bank’s mobile website or mobile app to pay bills, and only about one in eight use a bank’s mobile website or mobile app to send money to other people. Using mobile bill pay or mobile person-to-person payments instead of cash or non-bank money orders increases safety and convenience, deepens the connection between households and their banks, and increases the opportunity for households to derive value from the banking relationship,” the study explained.

Now with the groundbreaking speed, security and cost-effectiveness of uBuck, the underbanked and unbanked will have even more incentive to embrace mobile payments.

Tested for international markets and easy, secure, and FREE transfers, uBUCK is truly offering a unique and appealing user experience that could potentially explode very soon.

In the first half of the year, the company attracted three major deals that potentially gives the platform access to millions of new users, 2019 could be a very lucrative year for uBUCK and its developers, LiteLink Technologies Inc. (CSE:LLT) (OTC:LLNKF).

Investors are already expressing a ton of interest in the uBUCK platform and its development as well, leading the company to conduct a non-brokered private placement of up to 8 million preferred shares for aggregate gross proceeds up to US$4 million.

The first tranche has already garnered $400,000 in gross proceeds and an additional US$1.1 million initial investment is expected by June 30, 2020.

The private placement, which is non-dilutive for LiteLink Technologies Inc. (CSE:LLT) (OTC:LLNKF) shareholders, gives uBUCK a pre-money valuation of US$25 million.

Honing in on the UnBanked & UnderBanked Population in Los Angeles

SPARE’s CEO D’ontra Hughes made his claim to fame in April when he presented his company on Shark Tank and received a US$500,000 investment from billionaire investor Mark Cuban.

Over the last two and a half years, SPARE has signed on 2,5000 merchants across Los Angeles and now, thanks to a strategic alliance, these locations will be available for uBUCK customers to seamlessly convert their uBUCK into cash.

It makes sense why this market is an ideal target for digital payments services like uBUCK. Los Angeles is one of the highest unbanked populations of any metropolis, with more than half a million residents lacking access to a bank or credit union.

This strategic alliance with SPARE provides uBUCK customers with more options for converting their funds, widens the services available for a population that often pays exorbitant fees for basic financial services and falls in-line with uBUCK’s goal of serving unbanked and underbanked across North America and beyond.

Positioned to QUICKLY Capture the UnBanked & UnderBanked Market

Digital payments is a BIG business.  With approximately 27.4 million users, Zelle processed over $199 Billion worth of payments, but these giants (see table below) do not serve the unbanked population.  The lower income sector must rely on companies like Western Union to transfer funds to friends and family around the globe with and pay ridiculously high transfer fees with slow processing times.

Recently, uBUCK announced a strategic partnership with US prepaid platform, PreWay. Prior to the deal, all uBUCK users had to purchase vouchers digitally within the app. Now, through this agreement with PreWayuBUCK gains access to over 7,000 convenience stores across the United States, where users can physically buy vouchers and redeem them to uBUCK in the app via a PIN number.

This new option is a revolutionary game changer for uBUCK—officially opening up the “unbanked” and “underbanked” in the United States to use the platform as a bank account and/or credit card with one simple purchase.

Should this step be repeatable in other international markets, the potential for welcoming in the underbanked could be enormous.  Around the world, the proportion of the public unbanked or underbanked—lacking bank account—is surprisingly high.

According to World Bank[1], this population is globally significant (approximately 1.7 billion people).

Remittance transfer alone from the US to Mexico hit a record high of more than US $33 billion sent in 2018[2]—to a country with an estimated 42 million lacking bank accounts[3].

India is both the second-largest population in the world, and the second largest unbanked population in the world[4]. However, it is the largest receiving country in terms of remittances, having received over US$78.6 billion in 2018.[5]

By catering to this incredibly large base of unbanked populations, and to their generous transfer senders, the uBUCK option provides significant revenue potential for LiteLink Technologies Inc. (CSE:LLT) (OTC:LLNKF).

uBUCK Inks Loyalty Rewards Partner to Gain Access to Millions of Users Immediately

Almost immediately after the PreWay announcement, uBUCK announced an LOI with leading customer loyalty and data management company Datable Technology Corp. Under the terms of deal, uBUCK will integrate Datable’s loyalty and rewards program, PLATFORM3 into its digital payments platform, allowing uBUCK Pay account holders to earn rewards for purchases and payments made within the uBUCK Pay digital wallet or on their uBUCK Visa.

In turn, Datable will also be integrating uBUCK as a cash card Prepaid Credit Card offering within their client’s portals giving uBUCK access to millions of potential users.

Together, each party will be sharing their customers, which is a significant addition for uBUCK because of Datable’s relationships with major brands that include Universal StudiosGeneral Mills, and Unilever.

“We believe that Datable is the #1 Rewards platform on the market.  They continue to sign up well-known brands and we’re excited to be a part of their cash card offerings,” says James Youn, CEO of uBUCK. Mr. Youn also commented, “The uBUCK Pay platform will see immediate growth.  Datable’s referrals will allow uBUCK to potentially gain access to millions of new users.”

“Datable provides consumers of Fortune 500 brands with access to over 300 digital gift cards from leading retailers including Starbucks, Walmart, and Target. The partnership with uBUCK provides Datable with a unique and flexible cash card offering that our brand customers are looking to provide to consumers as rewards for engagement,” says Robert Craig, CEO of Datable Technology.

There are even more reasons that uBUCK from LiteLink Technologies Inc. (CSE:LLT) (OTC:LLNKFis set to potentially disrupt the entire digital payments and e-wallets sector, through its unique fast, secure, and accessible platform.

 uBUCK has the potential to financially enfranchise hundreds of millions who are currently left unserved or underserved by banking options. Usable for FREE transfers around the world, uBUCK tokens allow for users to use proprietary debit cards to withdraw cash and pay bills.

“It has the potential to really disrupt traditional banking when it comes to global money transfer options, and simultaneously empower the vulnerable global population usually ignored by traditional banking options”

Transfers with uBUCK Pay are FREE and SECURE

uBUCK from developers LiteLink Technologies Inc. (CSE:LLT) (OTC:LLNKFis advantaged by its FREE and SECURE transfers. In comparison, the two largest international transferring houses (Western Union and PayPal) have very high fees.

To transfer uBUCK tokens is not only free, but instantaneous—no matter the distance. Whereas for a receiver of funds through Western Union or PayPal, transfers can take hours to days for funds to be released.

Not all free transfers are secure, either, as two of the major transfer platforms have gained notoriety for scams and hacks. Problems continue to arise for popular platforms, such as Zelle[7] and Venmo[8].

Due to its decentralized architecture, and a distributed ledger (using world record fastest blockchain platform, Waves), uBUCK is nearly impossible to hack. In order to hack the system, the malevolent party would have to hack each and every device (“node”) that contains the ledger.

The uBUCK Pay platform offers multi-factor authentication, biometric and device verification, SSL encryption and Visa SecureCode. The system ensures that no one but the user has access to the wallet, even with the user’s device and one of the user’s passwords.

 This arrangement ensures the highest level of security of its kind, unparalleled in other banking options in the market—both traditional and e-wallets.

Once customers become aware of this option that’s among the safest available, this could be a tipping point for users of other services to switch to uBUCK.
