Legal Cannabis Sales Proving to Stay Popular

NEW YORK, August 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

According to a report by Arcview Market Research, sales of legal cannabis products are projected to top $20.2 billion by 2021 in North American alone at a compound annual growth rate of 25%. The report mentions Canada as it moves towards implementing legislation to legalize cannabis for recreational use. Arcview's editor-in-chief, Tom Adams stated according to Forbes, "The only consumer industry categories I've seen reach $5 billion in annual spending and then post anything like 25% compound annual growth in the next five years are cable television (19%) in the 1990's and the broadband Internet (29%) in the 2000's." Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE), SinglePoint, Inc. (OTC: SING), CV Sciences, Inc. (OTC: CVSI), Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: MJNA), Greengro Technologies Inc. (OTC: GRNH).

The report points out how economically beneficial retail cannabis sales were in states that legalized the products for medical and recreational use. "Sales taxes in state-sanctioned cannabis markets totaled more than $500 million in 2016 in Colorado, Washington, and Oregon alone, and $836 million since adult-use sales began in 2014. Nearly 1.9 million North Americans are legally using cannabis to manage conditions as severe as polymorphic seizures and as common as chronic pain, while millions more are consuming it legally in adult-use states with little or no negative impact," according to the report.

Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE) recently announced that its majority owned subsidiary, MoneyTrac Technology, Inc. ("MTRAC"), has completed an agreement with H Smart Inc. (a division of Marijuana Company of America, "MCOA"), a developer and distributor of innovative wellness and Cannabidiol ("CBD") products, for the use of MTRAC's financial technology platform. The technology available in MTRAC's platform, via software developed and provided by Virtu Network Solutions, will be utilized by H Smart for payment of commissions to H Smart's affiliates. GOHE projects that these load payments and bank account transfers will generate substantial revenue to MTRAC that will be realized this fiscal quarter.

H Smart will provide MTRAC with a pivotal opportunity to enter into the emerging CBD market, which according to information provided by the Hemp Business Journal, is estimated to grow to a $2.1 billion market in consumer sales by 2020, representing a 700% increase from 2016. MoneyTrac COO, Vanessa Luna says, "This agreement with H Smart is another example of MoneyTrac's ongoing commitment of identifying businesses in alternative market sectors that can benefit immensely from the financial technology solutions our platform is equipped with. We are very excited to be given the opportunity to integrate our technologies into this rapidly-growing CBD market, and look forward to becoming a valuable resource to H Smart as they work to expand their market reach within the Wellness Industry."

Robert Hymers, CEO of H Smart says, "H Smart's core mission is to provide educated consumers with access to the highest quality CBD technologies and products. The financial technology solutions that MoneyTrac will deliver will help create the most efficient transaction process for our affiliates who will be at the forefront of marketing our innovative wellness and CBD products to consumers."

The Company expects for MTRAC to continue identifying and extending their technology platform to the many businesses currently operating in alternative market sectors, all while growing revenues and building value for its shareholders.
