FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MOBETIZE CORP. PARTNERS WITH G&F FINANCIAL GROUP TO

LAUNCH MOBILE LENDING APP

Fintech solution provides consumer loan decision within two hours

Vancouver, British Columbia, September 29, 2016 -- Mobetize Corp. (OTCQB:MPAY) Mobetize Corp., an

emerging mobile financial services (MFS) technology company is pleased to announce that it has entered

into a partnership agreement with G&F Financial Group (“G&F”), one of the ten largest credit unions in

British Columbia; to jointly develop and market a digitized lending platform.

This innovative software solution built on the core Mobetize Fintech platform will enable G&F to instantly

meet Know Your Client (KYC) and Anti Money Laundering (AML) compliance in addition to underwriting

and computing complex algorithms for auto adjudicating the personal bank lending process initiated from

any PC or mobile device.

The uniqueness of this agreement with G&F lies in the ability of our solution to ensure that loan assets

remain on G&F’s balance sheet while enabling full visibility in the management of customer data and

back office processes. G&F in partnership with Mobetize will be able to offer an effective solution that is

unlike other solutions currently available in the Canadian Fintech marketplace.

The agreement provides that Mobetize will own any new intellectual property rights that stem from the

partnership and plans to market this solution to Direct and Platform lenders throughout North America to

capture the immediate opportunity for growth in the online lending marketplace.

The co-developed lending solution is scalable and implements dynamic algorithms in a cloud-based

environment that enables financial institution’s (FI) to quickly launch their own online lending strategies.

Key benefits for FI’s include:

 An omnichannel and simple user experience for fast loan decisions and funding

 Digitized back office processes and interoperability

 Ability to lead innovation with rapid launch and configurable KYC and adjudication rules

 Leverage new lending business models with configuration for insurance add-ons

 Easily respond to and address security and regulatory requirements

“We are thrilled to partner with G&F Financial Group which have over 75 years of experience in the lending

industry and is once again proving it is an industry leader through leveraging financial technology to

innovate, digitize and deliver leading omnichannel banking experiences” stated Ajay Hans, CEO.

About Online Marketplace Lending

Online marketplace lending has emerged as an industry offering faster credit for consumers and small

businesses. Companies in this industry have developed two primary business models: (1) Direct lenders

that originate loans to hold in their own portfolios, commonly referred to as balance sheet lenders and (2)

Platform lenders that partner with an issuing depository institution to originate loans and then purchase the

loans for sale to investors as whole loans or by issuing securities such as member-dependent notes. Market

analysts have identified a $1.0 trillion addressable market for online marketplace lenders (excluding

mortgages), and estimated loan origination volumes could reach $90.0 billion by 2020*.
