Moxian, Inc. Releases New Version App with Built-in UnionPay Payment Modules Targeting at Chinese Third-party Mobile Payments Market and O2O Market
SHENZHEN, China, April 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Moxian, Inc. ("Moxian" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: MOXC), an offline-to-online (O2O) integrated social media platform operator, today announced the launch of a new version of its Moxian User App and Business App (the "New Version App") that features built-in UnionPay payment modules. This follows the Company's strategic partnership with Beijing Chinaums, a subsidiary of China UnionPay ("UnionPay") in December, 2016 as previously announced in the Company's press release on December 5, 2016.
With the seamless integration of Moxian's proprietary virtual currency engine and UnionPay's powerful payment gateway, the New Version App enables all of the customers in the China market and participating merchants to process payments through the integrated UnionPay's payment gateway that supports payments from Alipay, WeChat Pay and UnionPay. This three-in-one UnionPay's payment gateway also ties with Moxian's MO-Coin and MO-Point rewards system which rewards customers who use and process payments on the New Version App and traces the customers' behavior which in turn allows Moxian to provide the participating merchants with complete and detailed analytic data and tools. This detailed analytic data and tools will in all ways enable the participating merchants to study the customers' behavior of its customers and to carry out precise marketing to effectively increase new customers and at the same time retaining old customers.
According to reports by iResearch in China and Forrester Research, the value of Chinese third-party mobile payments more than tripled to US$5.5 trillion in 2016, compared to US$112.0 billion in the U.S. A study completed by HSBC valued the O2O market at USD1.6 trillion per year.
From the trials of New Version App conducted by Moxian in Shenzhen and Beijing, the average gross merchant value ("GMV") for each merchant is estimated to range from US$10,000 to US$100,000 per month. Following the trials, Moxian launches the New Version App in Shenzhen, Beijing and Guangzhou with a target to recruit up to 100,000 merchants into Moxian's platform and to achieve a monthly GMV of US$1.0 billion in the following months.
The average fee which the participating merchants will share with Moxian in return for the use of services on Moxian platform, which includes payment services, customer relation management services and digital sales and precise marketing tools, ranges between 0.5% to 4% per transaction value transacted via the three-in-one UnionPay's payment gateway on the New Version App.
"The implementation of UnionPay into our App is a big game changer in our strategy. Through various methods, we are able to capture both users and merchants by enticing users to spend at merchant stores, which in-turn boost our active users and transaction value to merchants. Merchants are also able to gain a holistic view into user behavior through our platform which could prove to be critical for merchants to carry out promotions in a most cost-effective and efficient way and thus advantageous versus competition," said James Tan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Moxian. "We also look forward to potentially developing similar relationships with other UnionPay subsidiaries and other leading enterprises to accelerate the growth of our merchant and user bases in the future."
