Unlocking Pipeline for Signed Deals With Thousands of Fortune 100 Employees

XTM Inc. (“XTM” or the “Company”) (QB: XTMIF / CSE:PAID / FSE:7XT), a Miami and Toronto-based Fintech creator of disruptive payment innovations is pleased to announce that it has approval of a financing, totaling up to USD $90,000,000 with access to up to $30,000,000 for the initial funding and options to request $20,000,000 and thereafter increments of $25,000,000 as the requirements for Earned Wage Access. Concurrent and before the initial draw of the debt facility, the Company will close an additional $5M USD of convertible debentures as is a condition of the loan funding.

With the recent closing of the Qrails acquisition, the Company has been focused on boarding the backlog of signed deals onto the Qrails AnyDay™ EWA platform. To date, the Company has been using internal dollars to fund the EWA advances. Now with several Fortune 100 clients in or nearing implementation phase, a large debt facility was required to support the imminent growth needs. As the AnyDay™ EWA solution continues to see penetration rates of existing clients increase month over month, it is difficult to determine how many users the full USD $90M debt facility will support however, the Company anticipates it should take us well into 2024.

“We are bullish about our opportunity, with more than 200 million people in the US likely to access their earned wages mid-pay cycle due to personal financial short falls, combined with our access to this market through signed contracts,” said Marilyn Schaffer, CEO, XTM. “Pay day loans are no longer the go-to life-emergency option now, with our fully SAP certified AnyDay™ solution already in action and poised to scale to enable millions of workers access to their earnings in seconds.”
