PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview of Our Business

Recent Developments

UVIC, Inc., was incorporated in Nevada on August 21, 2013.

On May 8, 2015, UVIC, Inc., filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission Form S-1 to register 7,000,000 shares of our common stock at a per share price of $0.01 on behalf of selling shareholders. The SEC file number of the registration statement is 333-203997. The Form S-1 was declared effective by the SEC on August 7, 2015.

Prior to the transaction described below, UVIC., Inc., had limited operating and development activities.

Effective August 22, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Exchange of Stock (the "Agreement") with Zoompass, Inc., an Ontario, Canada corporation ("Zoompass") that was incorporated under the laws of Ontario on June 8, 2016.   Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 8,050,784 shares of its restricted common stock to Zoompass' shareholders ("Zoompass' shareholders") in exchange for all the shares of Zoompass Inc. owned by the Zoompass Inc.'s Shareholders.  At the Closing Date, Rob Lee, a significant shareholder of the Company agreed to cancel 7,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which shares constituted the control shares of the Company.  Other than this one significant shareholder, shareholders of the Company held 2,670,000 shares. As a result of the Agreement, Zoompass is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  The Company has amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Zoompass Holdings, Inc. and the appropriate forms were filed with FINRA and the SEC to change its name, address and symbol and complete a 3.5-1 forward split, which was consented to by the majority of shareholders on September 7, 2016 and approved in February 2017, for shareholders of record on September 7, 2016.

All share figures have been retroactively stated to reflect the stock split approved by shareholders, unless otherwise indicated.  Additionally, the Company's shareholders consented to an increase of the shares authorized to 500,000,000 and a revision of the par value to $0.0001.

As the former Zoompass shareholders ended up owning the majority of the Company, the transaction does not constitute a business combination and was deemed to be a recapitalization of the Company with Zoompass being the accounting acquirer, accordingly the accounting and disclosure information is that of Zoompass going forward.

Effective March 6, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), Zoompass Holdings, Inc.'s (the "Company") Canadian operating subsidiary, Zoompass, Inc., entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") for the sale of its Prepaid Card Business ("Prepaid Business") to Fintech Holdings North America Inc., or its designee. The aggregate purchase price of the Prepaid Business was C$400,000. The transaction was completed on March 26, 2018.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company implemented a plan to abandon the mobility solution operation. The Company has determined that the mobility solution operation represents a component and a reportable segment of the Company. According to the plan of abandonment, the Company gradually ceased accepting any new business during first quarter of 2018 and settled all the remaining orders and obligations from mobility solution by end of March 2018.

On October 17, 2018, the Company purchased certain business assets that represents a business from Virtublock Global Corp. (“Virtublock”, “VGC”) in return the Company issued 44,911,724 shares to Virtublock and pursuant to the issuance of shares Virtublock ended up owning 45% of total outstanding common shares of the Company.

The Company’s director and officer Mahmoud (Moody) Hashem is the principal shareholder of Virtublock. The purchase price of the assets was set using the book, or carrying value, of the assets, which was paid in shares of common stock of the Company. 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Global Economic Conditions

The unprecedented events in global financial markets in the past several years have had a profound impact on the global economy. Many industries, have been impacted by these market conditions. Market events and conditions, including volatility in the international credit markets and other financial systems and the deterioration of global economic conditions, could impede the Company's access to capital or increase the cost of capital and may adversely affect the Company's operations. The Company is also exposed to liquidity risks in meeting its operating and capital expenditure requirements in instances where the Company's cash position is unable to be maintained or appropriate financing is unavailable. These factors may impact the Company's ability to obtain capital on terms favourable to it or at all. Increased market volatility may impact the Company's operations which could adversely affect the trading price of the Common Shares.

Operating and Capital Requirements

The Company competes for financing and personnel with other financial technology companies. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available, when needed, or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favourable to the Company. The Company may need to make significant expenditures in connection with the development of its platform or other lines of business.  There is no assurance that any such funds will be available for operations and the ability of the Company to raise such capital will depend, in part, upon conditions in the capital markets at the time and its historical business performance. If additional capital is raised by the issuance of shares from the treasury of the Company, shareholders may suffer dilution. Future borrowings by the Company or its subsidiaries may increase the level of financial and interest rate risk to the Company as the Company will be required to service future indebtedness. Further, failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis could cause the Company to reduce, suspend, or terminate its proposed operations.

Dependence on Highly Skilled Personnel

The Company's prospects depend in part on the services of key executives and other highly skilled and experienced personnel focused on managing the Company's interests, in addition to the identification of new opportunities for growth and funding. The loss of these persons or the Company's inability to attract and retain additional highly skilled employees required for the Company's activities may have a material adverse effect on its business or future operations. The Company does not currently maintain "key person" life insurance on any of its key employees.

Negative Operating Cash Flow

The Company has negative operating cash flow and may continue to have negative operating cash flow in future periods. To the extent that the Company has negative operating cash flow, the Company will need to continue to deploy a portion of its cash reserves to fund such negative operating cash flow.

Limited operating history of the Company's new direction; No assurance of profitability; anticipated losses.

The Company has a limited operating history and, accordingly, has a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of our business. Our business must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and problems frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets which involve technology. The in development operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. Accordingly, the likelihood of our success must be considered in the light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the starting and expansion of a business and the relatively competitive environment in which we will operate. Unanticipated delays, expenses and other problems such as setbacks in launch and development, product sourcing manufacturing, and market acceptance are frequently encountered in establishing a new business such as the Company`s. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in addressing such risks, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Because of the Company`s limited operating history, the Company has limited historical financial data on which to base planned operating expenses. Accordingly, our expense levels, which are, to a large extent, variable, will be based in part on our expectations of future revenues. As a result of the variable nature of many of our expenses, we may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected delays in the development and marketing of our products or any subsequent revenue shortfall. Any such delays or shortfalls will have an immediate adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company has not achieved profitability to date. To the extent that net revenue does not grow at anticipated rates or that increases in its operating expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by commensurate increases in net revenue, or that the Company is unable to adjust operating expense levels accordingly, the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected. There can be no assurance that the Company's operating losses will not increase in the future or that the Company will ever achieve or sustain profitability.

Regulatory Risk

Although the Company follows certain laws and regulations and receives the requisite approvals to operate in the lines of business it currently or intends to operate in there is no guarantee that these laws, regulations and approvals will not be challenged or impugned. Further changing regulatory regimes may subject the Company to new laws and regulations.  Changes in the regulatory environment the Company operates in can have a material adverse affect on operations. 

Demand for our products and services may not develop as expected our projected revenues and profits will be affected.

Future profits are influenced by many factors, including economics, and will be predicated on a stable and/or growing market and the purchase and consumption of our products and services.  The Company believes, and our growth expectations assume, that the markets for our suite of products and services will continue to grow, that the Company will increase its  penetration of these markets and that our anticipated revenue from selling into this market will continue to increase. If the Company's expectations as to the size of these markets and its ability to sell our products and services in this market are not correct, our revenue may not materialize and our business will be harmed.

Operating results may fluctuate and may fall below expectations in any fiscal quarter.

Our operating results are difficult to predict and are expected to fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on our past results or future predictions prepared by the Company as an indication of our future performance. If our revenue or operating results fall in any period, the value of our common stock would likely decline.

Factors that may cause our operating results to fluctuate include:

The Company operates in a highly competitive industry and competitors may compete more effectively.

Many of our competitors have longer operating histories and greater resources than us, and could focus their substantial financial resources to develop a competing business model, develop products or services that are more attractive to potential customers than what we offer or convince our potential customers that they should require financing arrangements that would be impractical for smaller companies to offer. Our competitors may also offer products and services at prices below cost and/or devote significant sales forces to competing with us or attempt to recruit our key personnel by increasing compensation, any of which could improve their competitive positions. Any of these competitive factors could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain customers; cause us to lower our prices in order to compete, and reduce our market share and revenue, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. We can provide no assurance that we will continue to effectively compete against our current competitors or additional companies that may enter our markets.

International operations could expose business to additional risks 

The Company expects to generate a portion of sales outside of Canada in the future. Operating internationally is one of our growth strategies, and we expect our revenue and operations outside of North America will expand in the future. These operations will be subject to a variety of risks that we do not face currently:

Our overall success in international markets will depend, in part, on our ability to succeed in differing legal, regulatory, economic, social and political conditions. We may not be successful in developing and implementing policies and strategies that will be effective in managing these risks in each country where we do business. Our failure to manage these risks successfully could harm our international operations, reduce our international sales and increase our costs, thus adversely affecting our business, financial condition and operating results.

The Company relies on outside consultants, service providers and suppliers 

We will rely on the experience of consultants, service providers and suppliers. In the event that one or more of these consultants or terminates its relationship with the Company, or becomes unavailable, suitable replacements will need to be obtained and there is no assurance that such consultants, service providers and suppliers could be obtained under conditions favorable to us.

We rely on strategic relationships to promote our products

The Company relies on strategic partnerships with outside companies and individuals to promote and supply certain of our products and services, thus making the future success of our business particularly contingent on the efforts of other parties. An important part of our strategy is to promote acceptance of our products through with certain service providers who we feel could assist us with our promotion strategies. Our dependence, raises potential risks with respect to the future success of our business. Our success is dependent on the successful completion and commercial deployment of our products and services and on the future commitment of our distributors to our products and technology.

Reliance on our suppliers

The Company relies vendors and suppliers to provide power, as well as high quality products and services on a consistent basis.  The future success of the Company is contingent on the efforts and performance of these suppliers. The Company may have difficulty in locating or using alternative resources should supply problems arise with the current suppliers. An interruption or reduction in the source of supply of or an unanticipated increase in vendor prices, could materially affect our operating results and damage customer relationships as well as our business. 

Future growth could strain resources, and if the Company is unable to manage growth, it may not be able to successfully implement our business plan. 

The Company hopes to experience rapid growth in operations, which will place a significant strain on our management, administrative, operational and financial infrastructure. Our future success will depend in part upon the ability of our executive officers to manage growth effectively. This will require that we hire and train additional personnel to manage our expanding operations. In addition, we must continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. If we fail to successfully manage our growth, we may be unable to execute upon our business plan.

Failure to protect intellectual property, our planned business could be adversely affected. 

Despite efforts to protect and ensure the Company has proprietary rights, parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products, obtain, claim and use information that we regard as proprietary. Unauthorized use of our proprietary technology could harm our business. Litigation to protect our intellectual property rights can be costly and time-consuming to prosecute, and there can be no assurance that we will have the financial or other resources necessary to enforce or defend a patent infringement or proprietary rights violation action. 

 Unforeseen Liabilities from Past Acquisitions

There may be liabilities and claims that the Company has failed to discover or has underestimated in connection with previous acquisitions. In addition, there may be expenditure requirements that the Company has failed to discover or underestimated in connection with these acquisitions, which amounts may be material. Any such liabilities or expenditure requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or future prospects.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain of the directors and officers of the Corporation also serve as directors and/or officers of other companies there exists the possibility for such directors and officers to be in a position of conflict. Any decision made by any of such directors and officers will be made in accordance with their duties and obligations to deal fairly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In addition, each director is required to declare and refrain from voting on any matter in which such director may have a conflict of interest.

If we issue additional shares in the future, it will result in the dilution of our existing stockholders.

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 500,000,000 shares of our common stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Our board of directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire one or more companies or products and to fund our overhead and general operating requirements. The issuance of any such shares will reduce the book value per share and may contribute to a reduction in the market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuance will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current stockholders. Further, such issuance may result in a change of control of our company.

Trading of our stock is restricted by the Securities Exchange Commission's penny stock regulations, which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our common stock. 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock. 

In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our stock.

The price of our common stock may be negatively impacted by factors that are unrelated to our operations.

Although our common stock is currently listed for quotation on the OTC Markets and a market is established and trading has begun, trading through the OTCQB is frequently thin and highly volatile. There is no assurance that a sufficient market will continue in our stock, in which case it could be difficult for stockholders to sell their stock. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of our competitors, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

We do not intend to pay dividends on any investment in the shares of stock of our company. 

We have never paid any cash dividends, and currently do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. Because we do not intend to declare dividends, any gain on an investment in our company will need to come through an increase in the stock's price. This may never happen and investors may lose all of their investment in our company. 

ITEM 1B.  UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.  

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

We maintain our head office at #101-155 Gordon Baker Rd., Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M2H 3N5. 

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company learned that a class action complaint (the “Class Action Complaint”) had been filed against the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.  The Class Action Complaint alleges, inter alia, that defendants violated the federal securities laws by, among other things, failing to disclose that the Company was engaged in an unlawful scheme to promote its stock.  The Company has been served with the Class Action Complaint.  The Company has analyzed the Class Action Complaint and, based on that analysis, has concluded that it is legally deficient and otherwise without merit.  The Company intends to vigorously defend against these claims.

Also during the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company learned that two derivative complaints (the “Derivative Complaints”) on behalf of the Company have been filed against the Company’s Directors and Chief Executive Officer, President, Corporate Secretary, and Chief Financial Officer, and nominally against the Company, in Nevada state and federal court.  The state court action subsequently was removed to federal court.  The Derivative Complaints allege, inter alia, that the Company’s officers and directors directed the Company to undertake an unlawful scheme to promote its stock.  The Company has been served with the Derivative Complaints.  The Company has analyzed them and, based on its analysis, has concluded that the Derivative Complaints are legally deficient and otherwise without merit.  The Company intends to vigorously defend against these claims.   

On August 7, 2018, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey dismissed the Class Action Complaint.  Additionally, subsequent to the year end on August 21, 2018, the Company was served with the Second Amended Complaint in the District of New Jersey.  The Company filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on September 18, 2018.  On January 23, 2019, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey dismissed the Second Amended Complaint with prejudice.  Plaintiff filed a motion for reconsideration of the dismissal order on February 7, 2019.  On May 14, 2019, the Plaintiff’s motion to reconsider was denied. On June 27, 2019, the plaintiffs filed an appeal with United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.

The Company was also served with a third derivative action, which was filed March 23, 2018, against the Company’s Directors and Chief Executive Officer, President, and Corporate Secretary, and nominally against the Company, in Nevada state court.  Subsequently, this case was removed to federal court.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low closing prices of our common stock. These prices reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may not represent actual transactions. 

Approximate Number of Holders of Our Common Stock

As of November 15, 2019, the Company had 93 active stockholders of record and 108,988,461 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding. Because some of our common stock is held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of stockholders represented by these record holders.

Our registrar and transfer agent for our common stock is VStock Transfer. Their address is 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, NY 11598 and their telephone number and facsimile are +1 (646) 536-3179 and +1 (212) 828-8436, respectively.

Dividend Policy

The Company has not declared any dividends since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to operate and expand our business.

Our board of directors has discretion on whether to pay dividends unless the distribution would render us unable to repay our debts as they become due. Even if our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that the board of directors may deem relevant.

Nature of Operations

Zoompass Holdings, Inc. formerly known as UVIC. Inc. ("Zoompass Holdings" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 21, 2013. 

Effective August 22, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Exchange of Stock (the "Agreement") with Zoompass, Inc., an Ontario, Canada corporation ("Zoompass") that was incorporated under the laws of Ontario on June 8, 2016.   Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 8,050,784 shares of its restricted common stock to Zoompass' shareholders ("Zoompass' shareholders") in exchange for all the shares of Zoompass Inc. owned by the Zoompass Inc.'s Shareholders.  At the Closing Date, Rob Lee, a significant shareholder of the Company agreed to cancel 7,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which shares constituted the control shares of the Company.  Other than this one significant shareholder, shareholders of the Company held 2,670,000 shares. As a result of the Agreement, Zoompass is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  The Company has amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Zoompass Holdings, Inc. and the appropriate forms were filed with FINRA and the SEC to change its name, address and symbol and complete a 3.5-1 forward split, which was consented to by the majority of shareholders on September 7, 2016 and approved in February 2017, for shareholders of record on September 7, 2016.

All share figures have been retroactively stated to reflect the stock split approved by shareholders, unless otherwise indicated.  Additionally, the Company's shareholders consented to an increase of the shares authorized to 500,000,000 and a revision of the par value to $0.0001.

As the former Zoompass shareholders ended up owning the majority of the Company, the transaction does not constitute a business combination and was deemed to be a recapitalization of the Company with Zoompass being the accounting acquirer, accordingly the accounting and disclosure information is that of Zoompass going forward.

Effective March 6, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), Zoompass Holdings, Inc.'s (the "Company") Canadian operating subsidiary, Zoompass, Inc., entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") for the sale of its Prepaid Card Business ("Prepaid Business") to Fintech Holdings North America Inc., or its designee. The aggregate purchase price of the Prepaid Business was C$400,000. The transaction was completed on March 26, 2018.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company implemented a plan to abandon the mobility solution operation. The Company has determined that the mobility solution operation represents a component and a reportable segment of the Company. According to the plan of abandonment, the Company gradually ceased accepting any new business during first quarter of 2018 and settled all the remaining orders and obligations from mobility solution by end of March 2018.

On October 17, 2018, the Company purchased certain business assets that represents a business from Virtublock Global Corp. (“Virtublock”, “VGC”) in return the Company issued 44,911,724 shares to Virtublock and pursuant to the issuance of shares Virtublock ended up owning 45% of total outstanding common shares of the Company.

There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or achieving and maintaining profitable operations in the future to enable it to meet its obligations as they come due and consequently continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional financing this year to fund its operations and it is currently working on securing this funding through corporate collaborations, public or private equity offerings or debt financings. Sales of additional equity securities by the Company would result in the dilution of the interests of existing shareholders. There can be no assurance that financing will be available when required.

The Company expects the forgoing, or a combination thereof, to meet the Company's anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months; however, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Financial information in this filing have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which presumes that it will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due. Financial information in this filing do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material. 

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company incurred a net loss of $6,236,176 (2017 - $7,298,520).

The Company may incur additional operating losses for the 2019 fiscal year.

There is no certainty that we will be successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or achieving and maintaining profitable operations in the future to enable us to meet our obligations as they come due and consequently continue as a going concern. The Company may require additional funds to further develop our expanded business plan.  The Company may require additional financing this year to fund our operations and is examining possible sources of funding beyond the existing cash generated from operations.  Sales of additional equity securities would result in the dilution of the interests of existing stockholders. There can be no assurance that financing will be available when required. In the event that the necessary additional financing is not obtained, the Company would reduce its discretionary overhead costs substantially, or otherwise curtail operations.

Financial instruments and risk factors

The Company has exposure to liquidity risk and foreign currency risk.  The Company's risk management objective is to preserve and redeploy the existing treasury as appropriate, ultimately to protect shareholder value.  Risk management strategies, as discussed below, are designed and implemented to ensure the Company's risks and the related exposure are consistent with the business objectives and risk tolerance.

Liquidity Risk: Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due.  The Company manages its liquidity by ensuring that there is sufficient capital to meet short and long-term business requirements, after taking into account cash requirements from operations and the Company's holdings of cash and cash equivalents. The Company also strives to maintain sufficient financial liquidity at all times in order to participate in investment opportunities as they arise, as well as to withstand sudden adverse changes in economic circumstances.

Management forecasts cash flows for its current and subsequent fiscal years to predict future financing requirements.  Future requirements may be met through a combination of credit and access to capital markets.  The Company's cash requirements are dependent on the level of operating activity, a large portion of which is discretionary.  Should management decide to increase its operating activity, more funds than what is currently in place would be required.  It is not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful or sufficient in the future.   At December 31, 2018, the Company had $36,075 in cash and cash equivalents (December 31, 2017 - $78,370).

The following are the maturities, excluding interest payments, reflecting undiscounted future cash disbursements of the Company's financial liabilities based on the period year ended December 31, 2018.

Currency risk: The Company's expenditures are incurred in Canadian and US dollars.  The results of the Company's operations are subject to currency translation risk.  The Company mitigates foreign exchange risk through forecasting its foreign currency denominated expenditures and maintaining an appropriate balance of cash in each currency to meet the expenditures.  As the Company's reporting currency is the US dollar, fluctuations in US dollar will affect the results of the Company. 

Credit risk: Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty's inability to fulfill its payment obligations. As at December 31, 2018, the Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. At December 31, 2018, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held with reputable Canadian chartered banks.  At December 31, 2018, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $192,305 (December 31, 2017 - $41,077) as a result of a review of collectability of the amount outstanding and the duration of time it was outstanding. 

Interest rate risk: Interest rate risk is the risk borne by an interest-bearing asset or liability as a result of fluctuations in interest rates.  Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.  The Company's does not have significant interest rate risk as the promissory note have been settled during the year.

Fair values:  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. 

Related Party Transactions

During 2016, the Company paid an advance on behalf of certain shareholders in the amount of $250,000. These shareholders also serve as directors and officers of the Company. $120,000 was returned by December 31, 2016, and $50,000 was returned during the year ended December 31, 2017.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the period. 

Basis of consolidation: 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Zoompass Holdings, the legal parent company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Zoompass and Paymobile Inc. (“Paymobile”), a company incorporated in Florida, USA, after the elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions.

Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Company, either directly or indirectly, has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. Where the group does not directly hold more than one half of the voting rights, significant judgment is used to determine whether control exists. These significant judgments include assessing whether the group can control the operating policies through the group's ability to appoint the majority of directors to the board. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group until the date on which control ceases.

The accounts of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between the entities are eliminated.

Translation of foreign currencies

The reporting and functional currency of the Company and Paymobile is the US dollar. The Company has determined that the functional currency of Zoompass is the Canadian dollar. (references to which are denoted "C$").

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded at the rates of the exchange prevailing on dates of transactions. At each balance sheet reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at each reporting date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the historical date of the transaction.  The impact from the translation of foreign currency denominated items are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Translation of Zoompass' assets and liabilities is done using the exchange rates at each balance sheet date; revenue and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the reporting period or at the date of the transaction; shareholders' equity is translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from translating the consolidated financial statements into the US Dollar are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency). 

Revenue recognition (effective January 1, 2018)

Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer.

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue.

Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are in included in cost of revenues.

The following is a description of principal activities – separated by reportable segments – from which the Company generates its revenue.

Prepaid cards: The Company’s revenues are primarily generated from financial service fees charged to cardholders and merchants accepting the cards for payment. Revenue for prepaid financial services is generated from multiple sources including transaction fees, cardholder fees, load fees and interchange fees. These fees are recognized on the transaction date. Funds received from customers are held in trust and the corresponding amount of funds available for use are recorded as a liability. Fees charged for card program, website and card design are recognized when services are performed or when the product is transferred to the customer. Other revenue represents gains realized on de-recognition of clients' funds payable. The prepaid card business discontinued in March 2018.

Mobility solution: The Company recognizes revenue in products revenue when a customer takes possession of the device. This usually occurs when the customer signs a contract. For mobile devices, customers usually pay within company specified credit term which is within 12 months. The mobility solution operation discontinued in March 2018.

Cryptocurrency platform: The company offers organizations the cryptocurrencies exchange & wallets platforms as a service in order to facilitate the exchange of different cryptocurrencies to its end users. The revenue is mainly generated from the software customization services fees charged to the organizations and transaction fees charged to the end users when using the exchange platform. The Company, for the year ended December 31, 2018, has not generated revenue from the Cryptocurrency platform.

 The Company accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct – i.e. if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any discounts) is allocated between separate products and services in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately provides prepaid cards related financial services and sells the mobile devices. 

Financial instruments

ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Included in the ASC Topic 820 framework is a three level valuation inputs hierarchy with Level 1 being inputs and transactions that can be effectively fully observed by market participants spanning to Level 3 where estimates are unobservable by market participants outside of the Company and must be estimated using assumptions developed by the Company. The Company discloses the lowest level input significant to each category of asset or liability valued within the scope of ASC Topic 820 and the valuation method as exchange, income or use. The Company uses inputs which are as observable as possible and the methods most applicable to the specific situation of each company or valued item.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, cash in trust and customer deposits, accounts receivables, net of any allowances for doubtful accounts, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, promissory note and client funds approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reflected in "Office and Sundry" expenses on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.  Per ASC Topic 820 framework these are considered Level 2 inputs where inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and out of Level 3 as of the date of the event or change in the circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no such transfers during the year.

Basic and diluted loss per share

Basic and diluted loss per share has been determined by dividing the net loss available to shareholders for the applicable period by the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding, respectively. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is calculated as if all dilutive options had been exercised or vested at the later of the beginning of the reporting period or date of grant, using the treasury stock method.

Loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents, options and warrants are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share when their effect as anti-dilutive.

Segment reporting

ASC 280-10, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Significantly all of the assets of the Company are located in, all revenues are currently earned in Canada and the Company’s research, development and strategical planning operations are carried out and served as an integral part of the Company’s business. The Company’s reportable segments and operating segments include prepaid card operations, mobility solution operations, cryptocurrency platform operations and research, development and strategical planning operations. 

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits held with banks and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of ninety days or less at acquisition date.  For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash in trust and customer deposits are amounts held by the Company at various financial institutions for settlement of clients' funds payable.  Client funds are amounts owing on behalf of clients for prepaid debit cards. 

Equipment

Equipment is stated at historic cost. The Company has the following sub-categories of property and equipment with useful lives and depreciation methods as follows:

The cost of assets sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

The Company follows the ASC Topic 360, which requires that long-lived assets be reviewed annually for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets' carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

In performing the review for recoverability, if future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the use and ultimate disposition of the assets are less than their carrying values, an impairment loss represented by the difference between its fair value and carrying value, is recognized. When properties are classified as held for sale they are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or the expected sales price less costs to sell.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired by the Company in business combinations. Business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method whereby acquired assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition with the excess of the acquisition amount over such fair value being recorded as goodwill and allocated to reporting units ("RU").  RUs are the smallest identifiable group of assets, liabilities and associated goodwill that generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.  Given how the Company is structured and managed, the Company has one RU.  Goodwill arises principally because of the following factors among other things: (1) the going concern value of the Company's capacity to sustain and grow revenues through securing additional contracts and customers,; (2) the undeserved market of consumers looking for financial transactional alternatives; (3) technological and mobile capabilities beyond acquired lines of business to capture buyer specific synergies arising upon a transaction and (4) the requirement to record a deferred tax liability for the difference between the assigned values and the tax bases of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, if any. 

Intangibles

The Company has applied the provisions of ASC topic 350 – Intangibles – goodwill and other, in accounting for its intangible assets. Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized on a straight-line method on the basis over the useful life of the respective intangibles. The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortization:

Trademark – 7.25 years

Acquired payment platform – 5 years

Intellectual property / Technology – 7.25 years

Impairment goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and intangible assets with definite lives

The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC No. 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other ("ASC 350"). ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has decreased below its carrying value. In addition, ASC 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill may be in doubt. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units; assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions or the occurrence of one or more confirming events in future periods could cause the actual results or outcomes to materially differ from such estimates and could also affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment at future reporting dates.

The Company assesses the carrying value of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and intangible assets with definite lives, such as Trademark, Technology platform, customer base and other intangible assets for potential impairment annually as of December 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate such assets might be impaired.

When assessing goodwill for impairment the Company elects to first perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. If we do not perform a qualitative assessment, or if the qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units, is less than its carrying amount, the Company performs a quantitative test. The Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company estimates fair value using the income approach, to estimate the future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the use and ultimate disposition of the assets. 

Income taxes

Deferred tax is recognised using the asset and liability method, on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. However, the deferred tax is not recognised if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred taxes determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred taxation asset is realised or the deferred taxation liability is settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. 

Share-based payment expense

The Company follows the fair value method of accounting for stock awards granted to employees, directors, officers and consultants. Share-based awards to employees are measured at the fair value of the related share-based awards. Share-based payments to others are valued based on the related services rendered or goods received or if this cannot be reliably measured, on the fair value of the instruments issued. Issuances of shares are valued using the fair value of the shares at the time of grant; issuances of warrants and other share-based awards are valued using the Black-Scholes model with assumptions based on historical experience and future expectations. All issuances of share-based payments have been fully-vested, otherwise the Company recognizes such awards over the vesting period based on expectations of the number of awards expected to vest over that period on a straight-line basis.

Business combinations

A business combination is a transaction or other event in which control over one or more businesses is obtained. A business is an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits. A business consists of inputs and processes applied to those inputs that have the ability to create outputs that provide a return to the Company and its shareholders. A business need not include all of the inputs and processes that were used by the acquiree to produce outputs if the business can be integrated with the inputs and processes of the Company to continue to produce outputs. The Company considers several factors to determine whether the set of activities and assets is a business.

Business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method whereby acquired assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition with the excess of the purchase consideration over such fair value being recorded as goodwill and allocated to reporting units (“RUs”). If the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the purchase consideration, the difference is recognized immediately as a gain in the consolidated statement of operations. Acquisition related costs are expensed during the period in which they are incurred, except for the cost of debt or equity instruments issued in relation to the acquisition which is included in the carrying amount of the related instrument. Certain fair values may be estimated at the acquisition date pending confirmation or completion of the valuation process. Where provisional values are used in accounting for a business combination, they are adjusted retrospectively in subsequent periods. However, the measurement period will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. If the assets acquired are not a business, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. 

Assets and disposal groups held for sale and discontinued operations

Assets and disposal groups (assets and liabilities relating to an activity that is to be sold or abandoned) are classified as ‘held for sale’ if their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sales transaction rather than through continuing use. The reclassification takes place when the assets are available for immediate sale and the sale is highly probable. These conditions are usually met as from the date on which agreement to sell is ready for signing or an abandonment plan starts to implement. Assets held for sale and disposal groups are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Assets held for sale are not depreciated or amortized.

Discontinued operations comprise those activities that were disposed of either via sales or abandonment during the period or which were classified as held for sale at the end of the period, and represent a separate major line of business or geographical area that can be clearly distinguished for operational and financial reporting purposes. 

Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The areas where management has made significant judgments include, but are not limited to:

Accounting for acquisitions: The accounting for acquisitions requires judgement to determine if an acquisition meets the definition of a business combination under ASC 805.  Further, management is required to use judgement to determine the fair value of the consideration provided and the net assets and liabilities acquired.

Assessment of Impairment: The Company has certain assets for which a determination of an impairment, if any, requires significant judgement to determine if the carrying amount of any assets are impaired.  Management uses judgement in determining among other things, whether or not an indicator of impairment has occurred, future cash flows, time horizons, and likelihood of recoverability.  The assets where management has assessed the recoverability the carrying amount includes accounts receivable, equipment, intangibles and goodwill.

Deferred taxes: The Company recognizes the deferred tax benefit related to deferred income tax assets to the extent recovery is probable.  Assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets requires management to make significant estimates of future taxable profit and the income tax rate at which the future tax assets will be realized.  To the extent that future cash flows, taxable profit and income tax rates differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize deferred tax assets could be impacted.  In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods from deferred income tax assets.

Share-based payment expense: The calculation of share-based payment expense requires management to use significant judgment in determining the fair value of share-based payment expense. Additionally, the management is required to make certain assumptions in arriving at the fair value of share-based payment expense.

Derivative financial instruments: The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks.

The Company reviews the terms of equity instruments and other financing arrangements, if any, to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. Also, in connection with the issuance of financing instruments, the Company may issue freestanding options or warrants to employees and non-employees in connection with consulting or other services. These options or warrants may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity.

Derivative financial instruments are initially measured at their fair value. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. To the extent that the initial fair values of the freestanding and/or bifurcated derivative instrument liabilities exceed the total proceeds received an immediate charge to income is recognized in order to initially record the derivative instrument liabilities at their fair value.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. If reclassification is required, the fair value of the derivative instrument, as of the determination date, is reclassified. Any previous charges or credits to income for changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are not reversed. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

Changes in accounting policies

Except for the changes above regarding revenue recognition, the Company has consistently applied the accounting policies to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers with a date of the initial application of January 1, 2018. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for revenue recognition as detailed above in revenue recognition.

The Company applied Topic 606 by using modified retrospective approach and the Company assessment the impact on opening deficit as at January 1, 2018 is nil. The accounting policy to recognize revenue prior to January 1, 2018 is describe as below:

Revenue recognition (Policy applicable before January 1, 2018)

 The Company recognizes revenue at the time persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, price is fixed and determinable, the delivery has occurred or the service has been performed and collectability is reasonably assured, particularly with respect to the mobility products sold and mobility products commissions.

 In addition, the Company applies the following specific revenue recognition policies: 

NEWLY ADOPTED AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2018, the FASB issued an accounting pronouncement (FASB ASU 2018-07) to expand the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on our consolidated financial statements, including potential early adoption.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the accounting pronouncement issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) to clarify existing guidance on revenue recognition. This guidance includes the required steps to achieve the core principle that a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this pronouncement on a modified retrospective and such adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position and/or results of operations.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the accounting pronouncement issued by the FASB to clarify how entities should present restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. This guidance requires entities to show changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the combined statement of cash flows. This guidance was adopted on a retrospective basis, and such adoption did not have a material impact on combined financial position and/or results of operations.

In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-11 (“ASU 2017-11”), which addressed accounting for (I) certain financial instruments with down round features and (II) replacement of the indefinite deferral for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain non-public entities and certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests with a scope exception. The main provisions of Part I of ASU 2017-11 “change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS.” Under previous US GAAP, warrants with a down round feature are not being considered indexed to the entity’s own stock, which results in classification of the warrant as a derivative liability. Under ASU 2017-11, the down round feature qualifies for a scope exception from derivative treatment. ASU 2017-11 is effective for public companies as of December 15, 2018 and interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, with adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year. We are currently in the process of evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on our consolidated financial statements, including potential early adoption.

The amendments in this Update require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this Update do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Management does not expect to have a significant impact of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 

In May 2017, an accounting pronouncement was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position and/or results of operations.

On April 1, 2017, the Company adopted the accounting pronouncement issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes within the balance sheet. This pronouncement eliminates the requirement that deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented as current or noncurrent based on the nature of the underlying assets and liabilities. Instead, the pronouncement requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, including valuation allowances, be classified as noncurrent. We adopted this pronouncement on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and/or results of operations. 

In February 2016, an accounting pronouncement was issued by the FASB to replace existing lease accounting guidance. This pronouncement is intended to provide enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. Expenses associated with leases will continue to be recognized in a manner similar to current accounting guidance. This pronouncement is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption is required to be applied on a modified retrospective basis for each prior reporting period presented. Although the Company has not yet quantified the impact that the adoption of this pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial position and/or results of operations, however, the management has begun a process to identify a complete population of the leases. Such process includes reviewing various contracts to identify whether such arrangements convey the right to control the use of an identified asset. The Company continue to evaluate the impact of the new accounting pronouncement, including enhanced disclosure requirements, on our business processes, controls and systems. 

ITEM 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The follow discussion about our market risk disclosures involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Financial instruments and risk factors

Management forecasts cash flows for its current and subsequent fiscal years to predict future financing requirements.  Future requirements may be met through a combination of credit and access to capital markets.  The Company's cash requirements are dependent on the level of operating activity, a large portion of which is discretionary.  Should management decide to increase its operating activity, more funds than what is currently in place would be required.  It is not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful or sufficient in the future.   At December 31, 2018, the Company had $36,075 in cash and cash equivalents (December 31, 2017 - $78,370).

The following are the maturities, excluding interest payments, reflecting undiscounted future cash disbursements of the Company's financial liabilities based on the period year ended December 31, 2018.

Currency risk: The Company's expenditures are incurred in Canadian and US dollars.  The results of the Company's operations are subject to currency translation risk.  The Company mitigates foreign exchange risk through forecasting its foreign currency denominated expenditures and maintaining an appropriate balance of cash in each currency to meet the expenditures.  As the Company's reporting currency is the US dollar, fluctuations in US dollar will affect the results of the Company. 

Credit risk: Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty's inability to fulfill its payment obligations. As at December 31, 2018, the Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. At December 31, 2018, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held with reputable Canadian chartered banks.  At December 31, 2018, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $192,305 (December 31, 2017 - $41,077) as a result of a review of collectability of the amount outstanding and the duration of time it was outstanding.

Interest rate risk: Interest rate risk is the risk borne by an interest-bearing asset or liability as a result of fluctuations in interest rates.  Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.  The Company's does not have significant interest rate risk as the promissory note have been settled during the year.

Fair values:  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. 

ITEM 8  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Consolidated Financial Statements

The financial statements required by this item begin on page F-1 hereof.  

ITEM 9 Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants and Accounting and Financial Disclosure

On November 10, 2016, our board of directors approved the engagement of MNP, LLP ("MNP"), as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm.

On June 19, 2019, our board of directors approved the engagement of SRCO Professional Corporation ("SRCO"), as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2015, and the subsequent interim period prior to the engagement of MNP, the Company has not consulted MNP regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and either a written report was provided to the registrant or oral advice was provided that the new accountant concluded was an important factor considered by the registrant in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(o)(1)(iv)) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v)).  

ITEM 9A Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports it files or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports it files or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures, as well as internal control over financial reporting, may not prevent or detect all inaccurate statements or omissions.

Our management, with the supervision and participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2018, were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls

Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 framework). Based on the Company's assessment, management has concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2018, to provid e reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.  

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, and determined that our controls and procedures were ineffective at the reasonable assurance level. This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

We have assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as discussed above. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of December 31, 2018, were ineffective due to the following: lack of segregation of duties, due to limited administrative and financial personnel and related resources and as only one of our directors is independent.

Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2018, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a materially affect, on our internal control over financial reporting. 

Item 9B. Other Information

None.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers, directors and beneficial owner of more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission statements of ownership and changes in ownership. The same persons are required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

However, the Company is in the process of preparing a code of business conduct and ethics policy during 2017.

Committees of Board of Directors

There are currently no committees of the Board of Directors. Our board of directors is of the view that it is appropriate for us not to have a standing nominating, audit or compensation committee because the current size of our board of directors does not facilitate the establishment of a separate committee. Our board of directors has performed, and will perform adequately, the functions of any specific committee.

Board Oversight of Risk

Our Board of Directors recognizes that, although risk management is a primary responsibility of the Company's management, the Board plays a critical role in oversight of risk. The Board, in order to more specifically carry out this responsibility, has assigned certain task focusing on reviewing different areas including strategic, operational, financial and reporting, compensation, compliance, corporate governance and other risks to the relevant Board Committees as summarized above. Each Committee then reports to the full Board ensuring the Board's full involvement in carrying out its responsibility for risk management. 

ITEM 11.  EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Persons Covered

As of December 31, 2018, there were two Named Executive Officers are set forth below: 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview

The Company's executive compensation program is generally designed to align the interests of executives with the interests of shareholders and to reward executives for achieving the Company's objectives. The executive compensation program is also designed to attract and retain the services of qualified executives. 

The Board of Directors shall determine all compensation packages.

Executive compensation generally consists of base salary or fees, bonuses and long-term incentive equity compensation such as stock grants or additional options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock as well as various health and welfare benefits. The Board has determined that both the base salary or fees and long-term incentive equity compensation should be the principal component of executive compensation. The Board has not adopted a formal bonus plan, and all bonuses are discretionary.

Elements of Compensation

The executive compensation for the Named Executive Officers) for the period ended December 31, 2018, primarily consisted of base salary or fees, long term incentive equity compensation, , and other compensation and benefit programs generally available to other employees,

Base Salary. The Board establishes base salaries or fees for the Company's Named Executive Officers based on the scope of their responsibilities, taking into account competitive market compensation paid by other companies in the Company's peer group for similar positions. Generally, the Board believes that executive base salaries or fees should be in-line with similar responsibilities at comparable companies in line with our compensation philosophy.

Base salaries are reviewed annually, and may be adjusted to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance and experience.

 Bonuses. Bonuses are intended to compensate the Named Executive Officers for achieving the Company's financial performance and other objectives established by the Board each year. The Board currently does not adopt a formal bonus plan and all bonuses are discretionary.

Long-Term Incentive Equity Compensation. The Board believes that stock-based awards promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by providing executive officers with incentives to improve shareholder value and contribute to the success of the Company and by enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best available persons for executive officer positions. The Named Executive Officers were eligible to receive certain number of shares of common stock of the Company. The Company cannot currently determine the number or type of additional awards that may be granted to eligible participants under the long-term incentive equity compensation plan in the future. Such determination will be made from time to time by the Board.

Change-In-Control and Termination Arrangements. The Company is in the process of formalizing Change-In-Control and Termination Arrangements that would be consistent with all officers of the Company.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information concerning all compensation awarded to, earned by or paid during fiscal years 2017 and 2018, to the Named Executive Officers:

Outstanding Equity Awards as of December 31, 2018

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

CONTENTS

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Zoompass Holdings, Inc.:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Zoompass Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018 and related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The consolidated financial statements of Zoompass Holdings, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2017 were audited by another auditor whose report dated June 12, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for revenue recognition in 2018 due to the adoption of ASU 2014 -09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and the related amendments.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and has a net working capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Zoompass Holdings, Inc. formerly known as UVIC. Inc. ("Zoompass Holdings" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 21, 2013. Effective August 22, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Exchange of Stock (the "Agreement") with Zoompass, Inc., an Ontario, Canada corporation ("Zoompass").   Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 8,050,784 shares of its restricted common stock to Zoompass' shareholders ("Zoompass' shareholders") in exchange for all the shares of Zoompass Inc. owned by the Zoompass Inc.'s Shareholders.  At the Closing Date, Rob Lee, a significant shareholder of the Company agreed to cancel 7,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which shares constituted the control shares of the Company.  Other than this one significant shareholder, shareholders of the Company held 2,670,000 shares. As a result of the Agreement, Zoompass is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  The Company has amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Zoompass Holdings, Inc. and the appropriate forms were filed with FINRA and the SEC to change its name, address and symbol and complete a 3.5-1 forward split, which was consented to by the majority of shareholders on September 7, 2016 and approved in February 2017, for shareholders of record on September 7, 2016.

All share figures have been retroactively stated to reflect the stock split approved by shareholders, unless otherwise indicated.  Additionally, the Company's shareholders consented to an increase of the shares authorized to 500,000,000 and a revision of the par value to $0.0001.

As the former Zoompass shareholders ended up owning the majority of the Company, the transaction does not constitute a business combination and was deemed to be a recapitalization of the Company with Zoompass being the accounting acquirer, accordingly the accounting and disclosure information is that of Zoompass going forward.

Effective March 6, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), Zoompass Holdings, Inc.'s (the "Company") Canadian operating subsidiary, Zoompass, Inc., entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") for the sale of its Prepaid Card Business ("Prepaid Business") to Fintech Holdings North America Inc., or its designee. The aggregate purchase price of the Prepaid Business was C$400,000. The transaction was completed on March 26, 2018.

During the first fiscal quarter of 2018, the Company implemented a plan to abandon the mobility solution operation. The Company has determined that the mobility solution operation represents a component and a reportable segment of the Company. According to the plan of abandonment, the Company gradually ceased accepting any new business during first fiscal quarter of 2018 and settled all the remaining orders and obligations from mobility solution by end of March 2018.

On October 17, 2018, the Company purchased certain business assets that represents a business from Virtublock Global Corp. (“Virtublock”, “VGC”) in return the Company issued 44,911,724 shares to Virtublock and pursuant to the issuance of shares Virtublock ended up owning 45% of total outstanding common shares of the Company.

Zoompass Inc., was incorporated under the laws of Ontario on June 8, 2016.  On October 17, 2018, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement with Virtublock, certain net assets were acquired by the Company in exchange for shares of the Company.  The net assets primarily consisted of certain technology IP related to cryptocurrency exchange/wallet, certain strategic partnerships and customer contracts. On March 25, 2019, the name of the company was changed from Zoompass Inc. to Virtublock Canada Inc.

During 2018, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and as of December 31, 2018 had an accumulated deficit. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to continue to execute its operating plan and to obtain additional debt or equity financing. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the necessary debt or equity financing will be available, or will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations. Should the Company be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of recorded asset amounts that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

ZOOMPASS HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in US dollars) 

There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or achieving and maintaining profitable operations in the future to enable it to meet its obligations as they come due and consequently continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional financing in the future to fund its operations and it is currently working on securing this funding through corporate collaborations, public or private equity offerings or debt financings. Sales of additional equity securities by the Company would result in the dilution of the interests of existing shareholders. There can be no assurance that financing will be available when required.

 The Company expects the forgoing, or a combination thereof, to meet the Company's anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months; however, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which presumes that it will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and consolidated statement of balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the period. 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the discontinued operations in current year. See note 4.

Basis of consolidation: 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Zoompass Holdings, the legal parent company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Zoompass and Paymobile Inc. (“Paymobile”), a company incorporated in Florida, USA, after the elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions.

Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Company, either directly or indirectly, has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. Where the group does not directly hold more than one half of the voting rights, significant judgment is used to determine whether control exists. These significant judgments include assessing whether the group can control the operating policies through the group's ability to appoint the majority of directors to the board. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group until the date on which control ceases.

The accounts of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between the entities are eliminated.

Translation of foreign currencies

The reporting and functional currency of the Company and Paymobile is the US dollar. The Company has determined that the functional currency of Zoompass is the Canadian dollar. (references to which are denoted "C$").

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded at the rates of the exchange prevailing on dates of transactions. At each balance sheet reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at each reporting date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the historical date of the transaction.  The impact from the translation of foreign currency denominated items are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Translation of Zoompass' assets and liabilities is done using the exchange rates at each balance sheet date; revenue and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the reporting period or at the date of the transaction; shareholders' equity is translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from translating the consolidated financial statements into the US Dollar are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency).

Revenue recognition (effective January 1, 2018)

Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer.

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue.

Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are in included in cost of revenues.

The following is a description of principal activities – separated by reportable segments – from which the Company generates its revenue.

Prepaid cards: The Company’s revenues are primarily generated from financial service fees charged to cardholders and merchants accepting the cards for payment. Revenue for prepaid financial services is generated from multiple sources including transaction fees, cardholder fees, load fees and interchange fees. These fees are recognized on the transaction date. Funds received from customers are held in trust and the corresponding amount of funds available for use are recorded as a liability. Fees charged for card program, website and card design are recognized when services are performed or when the product is transferred to the customer. Other revenue represents gains realized on de-recognition of clients' funds payable. The prepaid card business operation discontinued at end of March 2018. (note 4)

Mobility solution: The Company recognizes revenue in products revenue when a customer takes possession of the device. This usually occurs when the customer signs a contract. For mobile devices, customers usually pay within company specified credit term which is within 12 months. The mobility solution business operation discontinued at end of March 2018. (note 4)

Cryptocurrency platform: The company offers organizations the cryptocurrencies exchange & wallets platforms as a service in order to facilitate the exchange of different cryptocurrencies to its end users. The revenue is mainly generated from the software customization services fees charged to the organizations and transaction fees charged to the end users when using the exchange platform. The Company, for the year ended December 31, 2018, has not generated revenue from the Cryptocurrency platform.

The Company accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct – i.e. if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any discounts) is allocated between separate products and services in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately provides prepaid cards related financial services and sells the mobile devices.
