GCAC’s New Efixii Uplift App Removes Middleman from Couponing

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, March 7, 2023 – Global Compliance Applications Corp. (“GCAC” or the “Company”) (CSE: APP, FSE: 2FA, OTCQB: FUAPF) is pleased to announce that it will be launching a new consumer-focused app named Uplift. Upon approval from both Apple and Android app stores, Uplift will be available to retail consumers in North America, Australia, and other select regions in April 2023.

Uplift will replace the current consumer version of Efixii. It will enable brands to generate NFT coupons and send them directly into the ETH wallets of consumers who have downloaded Uplift. Uplift will have a new user interface, the ability to invite a friend, and dynamic product feedback questions based on the products that have been purchased and scanned. Consumers will have the ability to share their NFT coupons with others, driving further downloads of Uplift. For a preview of Uplift, please click here: https://efixii.io/consumer_app/

GCAC’s Efixii is an Ethereum Layer-2 Web3.0 solution that helps companies drive sales, retain customers, and build brand value. It is offered as an affordable SaaS solution, where brands connect directly to consumers through truth-telling about their products on the Efixii blockchain. This story is viewed by a QR code, and consumers can provide their feedback on that same chain through Uplift. Because of the peer-to-peer connection of all supply chain stakeholders, Efixii disintermediates the requirement for traditional coupon clearinghouses, saving both time and money.

Digital couponing has grown significantly in the United States in recent years, as more consumers have embraced mobile devices and online shopping. In 2019, the total value of all coupons distributed in the US was $467 billion. Of that, only $3.6 billion worth of coupons were redeemed, which is also the total amount of savings consumers achieved [1]. This shift was likely accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which prompted many consumers to shift their shopping online. According to a report by Inmar Intelligence, digital coupon redemptions accounted for 33% of all coupon redemptions in the first half of 2021, compared to FSIs, which accounted for 24 percent. Overall digital coupon redemption volume for 2021 YTD saw a 13% YoY increase from 2020, indicating continued and increasingly strong demand for both savings and the convenience of digital coupons [2].

Brad Moore, GCAC CEO, says “Uplift is the kingmaker of Efixii. Under the Citizen Green banner [3], we will start by providing discounted, safe medical cannabis coupons to countless American veterans [4] who do not have access to a federal program like their Canadian brothers. From there, we will expand into other consumer products that can be couponed and add value in their lives and those of family and friends.”
