"After reviewing Casinix Exchange business model - it became clear Casinix Exchange solves several problems plaguing the global stored value space.  Casinix Exchange is an enormously forward thinking company that directs tangible economic benefit to retailers and consumers worldwide,"  Dr. Thomas J. Dudley, retired Pepperdine University business school professor and Casinix Exchange board member, said.  The Exchange eliminates worries about lost cards, value expiration, bankrupt merchants or a consumer simply not wanting products or services from an 'originating' merchant. The platform introduces a "pay-for-revenue™" marketing solution for retailers – to capture precise measurable return from retailers ad spend.  Retailers can now bypass "upfront fees" associated with Madison Avenue firms – yet increase relevance with consumers and their social networks.  

Merchants currently sell stored value to customers and receive cash from the transaction.  The approach temporarily serves merchants but does not serve customers best interest.  Merchants may go out of business which, in most cases, customers lose redemption value already paid for.  Customers lose their cards, thus no longer able to redeem value – given value is stored on their card rather than Casinix Exchange central exchange hub.  Customers' value further erodes as 1.5% or more monthly fees accrue.  Often redemption value is loss when card expires or customers simply don't want products or services from originating merchant.

Casinix Exchange solves those problems by introducing centralized origination, redemption, marketing and settlement – in this highly fragmented space.  Merchants are no longer paid up front when stored value is sold; rather Casinix Exchange escrows customer's cash until customer redeem value to purchase merchant's products or services.  Casinix Exchange pays merchants the moment customers redeem stored value, not when customers buy stored value.  The process enables customers to "originate" value through Casinix Exchange with one merchant, yet should the customer change their mind or merchant problems emerge - "redeem" value with millions of Casinix Exchange listed merchants throughout the world.  

The Exchange launched a massive retailer registration effort in 86 countries today.  Commencing Q2 – 2011, as indicated by the count-down timer on the Exchange home page - consumers may purchase or redeem value through the Exchange with active Casinix Exchange UK or USA retailers.  The Exchange continues consumer services roll out as tax, escheatment, regulatory, compliance and cultural issues are resolved in respective country.  The Exchange selectively partners with retailers, trade organizations or investors in foreign markets to ensure connectedness with consumers and generate worldwide viral revenue for the partner.  A limited number of Casinix Exchange Founder Seats are available at a cost of US$1.57 million – that include preferred shares in the Exchange.  Contact Casinix Exchange for more information regarding risks and privileges aligned with Founder Seat control.  HSBC Bank provides global commercial banking services to Casinix Exchange.
