#Tech News: NXT-ID (NASDAQ: $NXTD) COO and Fit Pay President, Michael Orlando to be a Featured Speaker at Secure Technology Alliance's IoT Payments 2017 Conference

Industry event for financial executives, device providers and retail industry executives to examine the evolving intersection of payments and IoT

MELBOURNE, Florida - October 3, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ:NXTD) and president of Fit Pay, Inc. will be a Plenary Featured Speaker at the IoT Payments 2017, an industry event hosted by the Secure Technology Alliance that explores the evolving world of Internet of Things (IoT) payments.
IoT Payments 2017, which takes place October 10-11, 2017 at the Hyatt Regency in Austin, Texas, will bring together experts from both the IoT and payments communities to discuss the most important developments, innovations and efforts driving secure, seamless IoT payments. The event is organized by the Secure Technology Alliance (formerly the Smart Card Alliance), a not-for-profit, multi-industry association working to stimulate the understanding, adoption and widespread application of secure solutions, including smart cards, embedded chip technology, and related hardware and software. Orlando's featured presentation, entitled 'Connected Commerce: The Internet of Payments', will cover IoT payments business models, use cases and adoption trends.
Orlando is COO of NXT-ID and president of Fit Pay, Inc. With 22 years of payment industry experience, he has held leadership positions in several successful companies, including Cybersource, where he played a primary role in its $2B acquisition by Visa. In 2014, Orlando Co-founded Fit Pay, which provides an end-to-end contactless payment solution for IoT devices. In May 2017, Fit Pay combined businesses with NXT-ID, and is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the IoT and security technology company.
The FitPay Payment PlatformTM is a proprietary technology platform that delivers payment, credential management, authentication and other secure services to the IoT ecosystem. The platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders' account information with a unique digital identifier (a "token"), to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. FitPay leverages Embedded Secure Element (eSE) chip technology within devices to offer a payment solution that is very power and memory efficient and does not need to refresh a token once it is issued. This frees devices from needing to be tethered to a host device or connected to the Internet to transact payments, creating a superior user experience. FitPay's end-to-end payment solution allows IoT and wearable device manufacturers to add payment and authentication capabilities to their products with very little start-up time, no investment in software development and access to the leading credit card networks.

With extensive experience in access control, biometric and behavior-metric identity verification, security and privacy, encryption and data protection, payments, miniaturization and sensor technologies, NXT-ID develops and markets groundbreaking solutions for payment and IoT applications.

#Tech News: Gopher Protocol (OTCQB: $GOPH) Engages Large Media to Manage its Guardian Orb Indiegogo campaign

ATLANTA, GA - October 2, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher" or the "Company"), a development-stage company which specializes in the creation of Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies and distribution, engages Large Media to launch the Guardian Orb Indiegogo and marketing campaign. As announced on August 28, 2017, the Company launched a Beta Awareness Campaign for The GUARDIAN ORB Proprietary Pet Tracking Device on the Indiegogo platform at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/guardian-orb-the-most-advanced-gps-pet-tracker-dog/coming_soon. Large Media will take over the beta campaign as well as the related conversion to an actual campaign.
Gopher's engagement with Large Media followed several months of due diligence and interviews. Gopher Protocol was introduced to Large Media through Indiegogo. The Company is also in negotiation with Indiegogo on the terms of a strategic campaign agreement, which in essence, if executed and if qualified will provide for promotions by Indiegogo of the Company's campaign.
Large Media's Partner and COO, Audrey Binkowski, will be heading up the team. "As dog fanatics and experienced crowdfunding marketers, teaming up with GOPHER Protocol to launch the Guardian Orb's Indiegogo campaign was a natural fit. We recognize that in an ideal world, no pet would ever slip out the back door and run off or get stolen from someone's yard. But, we also understand that no matter how cautious pet owners are, sometimes the unthinkable happens. The peace of mind that comes from knowing your best friend will come home is something you can't put a price on. We are thrilled to be able to bring this invaluable device to pet parents everywhere," said Audrey.
About Large Media
Large Media is a thriving, Catskill Mountains-based marketing firm that utilizes a data-driven approach combined with creative thinking to deliver social and digital marketing programs that deliver real ROI.

About Indiegogo
Indiegogo is an international crowdfunding website founded in 2008 by Danae Ringelmann,[2] Slava Rubin, and Eric Schell. Its headquarters are in San Francisco, California. The site is one of the first sites to offer crowd funding. Indiegogo allows people to solicit funds for an idea, charity, or start-up business. Indiegogo charges a 5% fee on contributions. This charge is in addition to credit card and PayPal charges that range from 3.5% to 9%. Fifteen million people visit the site each month.
The site runs on a rewards-based system, meaning donors, investors, or customers who are willing help to fund a project or product can donate and receive a gift, rather than an equity stake in the company. Following changes in Security and Exchange Commission rules earlier in 2016, Indiegogo has partnered with MicroVentures to offer equity-based campaigns beginning in November 2016, allowing unaccredited investors to participate with equity stakes.

The next stage of this exciting journey now begins with select deployments with key early adopters. Our system, which relies on machine learning algorithms, has graduated from the lab and is about to enter the arena of commercial distribution. Our strategy involves deployment through the remainder of the year to meet our backlog of commitments, and to immerse our engineering teams into an in-depth analysis of real-world threat scenarios in order to ensure that Patriot One offers the leading world-class solution for global threat detection.
"This is an important milestone for the Patriot One team for which they should be proud," said Governor Tom Ridge, first U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security and a member of the Patriot One Advisory Board. "I very much look forward to seeing the rollout of this game-changing technology across the United States and to supporting their efforts to improve public safety."
"We have used the waiting period for regulatory approval to assemble a team capable of meeting the go-to market challenges ahead." Kandanchatha continues, "I anticipate a phased rollout, and like any new technology we will advance carefully and deliberately, recognizing progress will come quickly as we learn from each installation. We have worked hard to ensure that our system would pass this rigorous hurdle and to have achieved it in less than a year is a testament to our team of dedicated engineers, researchers and support staff who have put in the huge effort to achieve today's news."
PATSCAN CMR sales efforts currently focus on markets encompassing houses of worship, academic institutions, event centres, casinos, commercial offices, hotel properties, government agencies and other locations at high risk of terrorist attack or random violence. Interest and orders have been received from around the globe and today's announcement will trigger a number of sales, marketing and support initiatives in major markets including the United Kingdom, Eurozone and Asia-Pacific regions.
"This is wonderful news for our company, our stakeholders and shareholders alike." states Company CEO Martin Cronin. "We well understand that there are hurdles with any new technology, especially when it is revolutionary. We are also very clear regarding the role that the investment community has played in getting us to where we are today, and we will redouble our commitment as we move ahead to build shareholder value and to earn capital market support. Today we celebrate meeting a significant building block in our strategy for public safety through threat detection and our ongoing mission to make the world a safer place."

#Tech News: Gopher (OTCQB: $GOPH) Proudly Introduces its New CEO

SAN DIEGO, CA - September 25, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher" or the "Company"), a development-stage company which specializes in the creation of Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies and distribution is proud to introduce its new CEO to shareholders and followers, in a personal letter from Gregory Bauer:
I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself as the new CEO of Gopher Protocol, as well as a fellow shareholder.
I have joined Gopher Protocol as part of Gopher's recent acquisition of UGO HUB assets.
We are going to be using the UGO HUB assets to create a "store within a store" offering several prepaid and cellular services as well as launching our branded UGO accessory product line for consumers. The assets we acquired provide us with basic infrastructure within 15,000 convenience stores located across the United States with a "heavy presence" in the south east to empower a Gopher network for future product releases.
Before we go into the strategy of the acquisition -- I will describe the parts of my background and experience that I believe will help me to succeed as CEO of Gopher Protocol.
My background includes working in technology and product distribution companies. Most recently growing a distribution division to over $140 million in revenue. In addition, I have had previous successful exits selling companies to large corporations and in the technology information space. I also have experience running public companies, so I am familiar with the requirements.
Based on my experience, I am excited about the opportunities I see in Gopher Protocol to expand the existing technology and take it to market. Let me start by describing the current operations of the assets recently acquired.
The recent Gopher acquisition will be generating revenues as a retail partner of the major telecoms through the distribution of financial products as well as cellular "top-off" cards. We believe this acquisition is a game changer for Gopher with the goal of placing Gopher on the path to a cash flow positive company. In addition, our goal is to provide the Company with more flexibility in developing and deploying its technology portfolio and to take advantage of the disruptive products developed by our CTO Danny Rittman.
Allowing that the acquisition makes sense from a financial standpoint, the beauty of having 15,000 points of presence across the United States will allow us to distribute our internal inventions in those locations, in the future.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, it is our goal to deploy connected devices into those locations to create the radio frequency network that we described in our recent video -- https://youtu.be/9ovYCMHmOi8. This will create the access points to the internet needed by our connected devices which will allow them to connect to the internet with no monthly fees.
To summarize our recent moves:
New CEO with public company experience, investor exits, and building large companies.
15,000 distribution points for our soon to be launched products with access to an estimated 30,000,000* customers weekly. (*http://distributech.net//Demographics.aspx)
I look forward to building shareholder value as we execute on the ambitious plans we have for the future.
Best regards,
Gregory Bauer
