SurgePays Inc. Approved to Dual List on Upstream

BARTLETT, Tenn., May 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SurgePays, Inc. (Nasdaq: SURG) today announced its approval to dual list its shares on Upstream, the revolutionary trading app for digital securities and NFTs powered by Horizon Fintex (“Horizon”) and MERJ Exchange Limited (“MERJ”). Trading becomes available on Upstream May 8, 2023, at 10:00am ET under the ticker symbol “SURG’’.

The dual listing on Upstream is designed to provide SurgePays the opportunity to access a global, digital-first investor base outside the U.S. that can trade using USDC digital currency along with credit, debit, PayPal, and USD; unlocking liquidity and enhancing price discovery while globalizing the opportunity to invest in SurgePays.

Investors outside the U.S. can get ready to trade by downloading Upstream from their preferred app store at https://upstream.exchange/, creating an account by tapping Sign Up, and completing a simple KYC identity verification by tapping the settings icon on the home screen and tapping KYC.*

Existing non-U.S. shareholders may transfer their shares by opening Upstream, tapping Investor, Manage Securities, Deposit Securities, then entering the ticker symbol “SURG” and the number of shares to deposit, and tapping Submit. Next, enter your brokerage firm name and brokerage account number, and tap Submit. Finally, tap Add E-Signature, sign your name on the screen using your finger, tap Done, and then tap Sign.

After completion of the deposit request on Upstream, shareholders will receive via email an executed deposit form to submit to their current brokerage firm to initiate a withdrawal to the transfer agent. Shares will not be transferred without notifying the current broker and requesting a withdrawal. On listing day, shareholders will receive a push notification once the shares are deposited and available for trading on Upstream.

Details on the SurgePays listing, detailed deposit and trading instructions, and how to claim the free commemorative NFT can be found at ir.surgepays.com. The Upstream market is open 5 days a week 20 hours a day, Monday to Friday: 10:00am to 06:00am UTC+4 (1:00am to 9:00pm EST).

Traders on Upstream’s blockchain-powered platform will experience real-time trading and settlement, and a transparent orderbook which does not permit common market manipulations. On listing day, Upstream participants will be eligible to claim a free digital collectible (NFT) memorializing the dual listing on Upstream. Shareholders may also be entitled to participate in future digital promotions which may be redeemed for products, services, or experiences for added value.

Brian Cox, President and CEO of SurgePays commented, “Building shareholder value is the long-term goal of ours. We believe a dual listing on Upstream will provide interested investors from around the world the opportunity to partner with SurgePays and invest in our business.
