Toronto, Ontario and Vancouver, British Columbia–(June 16, 2020) –  KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. (CSE:KABN) (formerly Torino Power Solutions Inc.) (the “Company” or “KABN” or “KABN North America“), a Canadian Fintech company that specializes in continuous online identity verification, management and monetization, is pleased to announce that it has entered an initial agreement to integrate its Liquid Avatar platform (www.liquidavatar.com) with Disrupted Logic Interactive’s (“DLI”) ctalyst® platform to enhance the experience of online and eSports gamers.

Founded in 2012 in Vancouver, BC, by a team of seasoned video, gaming, advertising and technology leaders, DLI’s ctalyst® platform currently works with over 130 game producers and has an additional 150 developers awaiting invitation to join the network. ctalyst® is a one-stop, self-contained, and full-service platform similar in concept to Google’s AdWords, AdSense, and Analytics, but designed just for video games and e-sports. With the 130 game producers, the peak reach has been 60 to 70 million players and manages over 150 unique data points and analytics on opt-in participants. It is anticipated that when the additional 150 game developers are invited into the program, the reach could extend to over 500 million gamers worldwide.

KABN North America’s platform provides, at no cost to consumers, the ability to create a digital identity with the Liquid Avatar platform, verify their identity through KABN ID and create value for the use of their identity through KABN North America’s cashback, engagement and loyalty program KABN KASH, as well as the KABN Visa card.

KABN North America generates revenue by providing users with high value services and delivering permission-based offers that fit their aggregated public data profiles. KABN never rents, sells or provides data to outside parties without permission, and complies with jurisdictional privacy rules and regulations.

KABN North America is working with DLI and its game developers to promote Liquid Avatar to US and Canadian gamers through the online game registration and certain game incentives.

“The ability to increase player reach outside of the game and the ability to empower users to control the use of their digital identity is a fundamental reason why we’ve partnered with Liquid Avatar,” said Tom Raycove, CEO of DLI. “KABN’s ecosystem presents a tremendous opportunity for DLI and our game developers to create revenue while building increased value for players.”

Liquid Avatar – Delivering Reach, Value and Revenue

Game Developers – Liquid Avatar provides developers with the ability to extend their reach and revenue generation with players by having gamers activate Liquid Avatars. Any revenues generated by those gamers in the KABN Network will be shared by KABN, DLI and game developers.

Advertisers – For in-game advertisers, DLI manages over 150 unique data points and, together with Liquid Avatar, can assess if a gamer has more than 1 account, allowing unique advertising to be delivered not just based on individual game play of an individual person and not just the number of accounts, increasing both value for the advertiser and potentially increasing overall revenue in the ecosystem.

Gamers – By signing up in-game for a Liquid Avatar account, the user will have the ability to earn special rewards and value from the game developer. They will also have the ability to potentially create and manage in-game avatars with Liquid Avatar and extend their game personas to the real world. Working with DLI, the data points collected can support both the opportunities in Liquid Avatar and products like KABN KASH to create more personalized offers from merchants and increase the potential revenue generated by KABN North America.

DLI / catalyst® – The agreement with KABN North America provides opportunities for DLI to increase their ongoing reach with gamers, create value for the ecosystems and generate revenues beyond in-game advertising. Liquid Avatar and KABN will share revenues generated inside the KABN ecosystem for users generated from DLI’s referrals.

KABN North America – By working with DLI and other organizations that have large networks of non-verified users, Liquid Avatar can potentially create significant revenue and value for its partners and the KABN Network. This process both increases reach for Liquid Avatar and can potentially reduce customer acquisition costs significantly.

KABN North America Product Suite

KABN North America has 4 primary products that enable users to verify, manage and monetize their digital identity:

  • KABN ID: a reusable, Always On, compliant, biometrically based, identity verification and validation platform that forms the engine of the KABN Network.
  • LIQUID AVATAR: a digital image-based “wallet and keyring” platform that allows users to manage their digital identity.
  • KABN Card: an approved prepaid Visa card that includes a mobile banking wallet that supports both digital and traditional currencies.
  • KABN KASH: a robust loyalty and engagement platform with cashback and card-linked programs.

“This agreement with DLI creates an opportunity to reach a significantly large, low acquisition cost and highly scalable market to increase the reach of Liquid Avatar,” said Benjamin Kessler, CEO. “KABN’s suite of services will provide an ecosystem to empower these users to manage and control their digital identity and to benefit from unique, permission-based offers that will create revenues for KABN, DLI and game developers.”

DLI is currently exploring its own private funding program and KABN North America has expressed interest in participating as a lead order, subject to completion of a definitive agreement, review of the offering, and receipt of all necessary approvals.

Over the coming weeks, KABN will begin its rollout of products and programs, initially on an invitation-only basis to its customers, social media, gaming and its network partners.

Founded in 2012 in Vancouver, BC, by a team of industry professionals from gaming, advertising, technology and the motion picture industry, Disrupted Logic Interactive currently has 7 employees. Disrupted Logic has developed the ctalyst® technology which is live and in market.

$KABN.ca Systems NA – The Company that’s Protecting Identity as YOUR Basic Human Right

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 10:01 AM on Thursday, June 11th, 2020

While investing in small cap companies comes with certain inherent risks, it’s not high stakes, low chance gambling. In fact, practically every billion-dollar large cap company started off as a penny stock.

For the savvy retail investor or day trader, they know full well that emerging financial technology-based companies have, for the past two decades-plus, offered the highest returns with relatively low risk mitigation…even despite the dot com bubble crash of the early 2000’s.

Today, a lot of smart money is funneling into forward-thinking companies that are fulfilling an immediate need to provide real world solutions to identity fraud and creating value through data validation.

Now, an innovative, Toronto-based company is making real things happen to protect consumers, companies, and capital.

KABN (pronounced ‘Cabin’) Systems NA (CSE:KABN, Forum) is already on the forefront of developing cutting-edge blockchain-supported and biometric customized identity solutions software. Bear in mind, this fintech company is not in conflict or cooperation with companies trying to use your data. They are the protectors of your data. Here’s how they do it.

Their world-class suite of products and services work seamlessly across all channels and, most importantly, all demographic groups. Simply put, KABN’s software apps and digital banking processes can work for everyone.

KABN works differently than other companies in this space. How? They offer a unique, comprehensive, and integrated suite of identity, financial, and loyalty services.

Here’s the starting lineup. Liquid Avatar – powered by KABN ID – provides an ‘Always On’, biometrically-based, privacy-compliant, identity validation and verification platform which enables users to continuously and confidently prove themselves to the online community, exchanges, and other services. KABN ID is the backbone to its financial, loyalty, and engagement solutions including the KABN Prepaid Card program and KABN KASH – an innovative cash-back program where users are connected to online merchants for savings when they shop.

Why Digital Identity Matters

Identity is what makes people unique, but since the inception of the internet, digital identity has often been an afterthought. With today’s acceleration of online commerce, education, healthcare, government, and other services tailored to the individual, digital identity and the data that surrounds it is online “gold”. KABN says they believe that ownership of identity is a “basic human right and individuals should be the primary beneficiary of any use of their identity.” This is what sets KABN apart.

In the conventional world, it’s easy to prove who you are either by visual or traditional identity verification. It’s a process that most people are accustomed to following.

In today’s digital world, it’s not that easy to prove “you are you”. Identity verification is managed on a site-by-site basis and users are often required to deliver sensitive documents to unknown third parties, potentially reducing the value of their identity and increasingly exposing themselves to the risk of identity fraud.“KABN believes that ownership of identity is a basic human right and individuals should be the primary beneficiary of any use of their identity.”Digital Identity “Friction”

In the digital data world, it’s all about the pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters and the
ability to passively and actively generate revenues through everyday consumer activities. The Company says that, at present, the digital identity space has not satisfactorily addressed both the consumer and commercial stakeholder needs. Both are vital to consider, and these include:

Consumer Identity Needs…

  • to make ID verification reusable
  • to put me in control of my private data
  • to help me manage my public data
  • to reduce identity fraud

Commercial Identity Needs…

  • to reduce friction of screening consumer users
  • to simplify user verification
  • to streamline compliance resources
  • to manage user Personally Identifiable Information (PII) efficiently

KABN’s Suite of Solutions: KABN ID, Liquid Avatar, the KABN Prepaid Visa card, and KABN KASH.

KABN ID

KABN ID is a proprietary, blockchain, and biometrically-based digital identity verification platform for both commercial clients and consumers users. KABN ID is a complete shift in thinking for identity validation as KABN ID provides a reusable, bank-grade identity verification for the individual user, at no cost to the consumer.

KABN ID is a global 24/7/365 verified online ID that is controlled by the client. The online identity service that is regulatory compliant, blockchain and biometrically-based, and is available at no cost to the consumer.

Users own and control the use of their verified identification, no personally identifiable information is ever transferred without authorization, and it provides organizations with an “Always On” KYC / AML (Know Your Customer / Anti Money Laundering) validation and verification process.

Liquid Avatar

Data is indeed the new “gold”. As users are presented value offerings and other services based on their public data profiles and system generated data, KABN, in turn, offers information services that are delivered directly to the user. User data is never sold or rented and remains part of the KABN Network.

A Liquid Avatar is a multi-layered, visual technology icon or token that contains information that can be linked, authenticated, and shared. When you share a Liquid Avatar, you automatically attach public data that will allow permission-based private data to be authenticated.

Liquid Avatars include a Visual or Presentation Layer – Public Data Layer, Private Data Layer, and a Security and Authentication Layer.

KABN Prepaid Visa Card

As part of KABN’s commitment to providing its Customers with innovative, permission-based values, KABN is introducing its first financial services program, the KABN Prepaid Visa card and Mobile Banking Wallet program that supports both digital and traditional currencies.

KABN Prepaid Visa cardholders will be able to spend in-store, online, and access ATMs globally, wherever Visa is accepted.

KABN Card Features include:

  • a digital currency-linked prepaid Visa card
  • a multiple currency banking wallet
  • KABN KASH cashback program and other innovative services

and, global access – anywhere that Visa is accepted worldwide.

KABN KASH

KABN KASH is a robust engagement portal which includes a cash-back program. Here users are able shop at some of North America’s top online merchants and receive cash back on their KABN Card. Customers will also receive updates on special offers and unique deals exclusive to KABN KASH.

KABN KASH Features include:

  • an exclusive customer portal
  • cashback rewards
  • special offers
  • exclusive opportunities & experiences
  • and instant savings alert messaging.

In the News: “KABN Systems to take over Torino Power Solutions”

Kabn Systems North America – a fintech company leveraging biometric ID verification – has signed an agreement with Torino Power Solutions to execute a reverse takeover (RT) as it prepares to launch a digital banking and financial services platform.

The platform will consist of continuous ID validation and verification processes. These include:

  • Liquid Avatar – powered by KABN ID – which is based on biometrics and blockchain
  • the KABN Prepaid Visa Card, which acts as a payment card and digital wallet for multi-currency transactions with digital or fiat currencies
  • and KABN KASH, a loyalty and customer engagement platform.

The technology is just not cool…it’s comprehensive.

From the Executive Team

In a lively and informative interview with Stockhouse Editorial, KABN’s Chief Executive Officer, Ben Kessler talked about a variety of timely Company happenings, including not only the experience but the innovative ideas they’re bringing to the digital identity management space. Ben Kessler commented:

“Our focus is on our three core strengths – Reach, a Unique Business Approach and Team. With our senior management team, I think the great thing we all bring is some extremely strong skillsets and experiences and we all see things, in some ways, slightly different. And that’s a good thing.”

Kessler also highlighted the three unique attributes that he believes will make KABN successful:

“First, our reach. It covers 100 percent of the addressable online market which is approximately 300 million people in North America, so we don’t have to go looking to provide a service to people who may not want it. Identity is becoming more important. Second, we have a unique business approach. We want to empower consumers to manage and control their identity and find ways to create value and opportunity from that identity. Our business is to empower constituents and commercial clients, as well. The third thing is, we’ve just got a simply outstanding team. We’ve all been doing this for a lot of years and in my career, I’ve never had a better crew of people that I’ve ever worked with. We’ve got a great team and advisors that are all uniquely focussed on succeeding.”

In Closing

There aren’t a lot of companies like KABN that offer a unique ground-floor investment opportunity in one of the most vital sectors of the New Economy – digital identity protection. The team says they’re excited and completely engaged in doing what’s best for investors, and it shows. Afterall, isn’t that what it’s all about? Bringing ‘value and opportunity’ to one of the most blue-sky digital global markets available today.

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 5:51 PM on Thursday, June 4th, 2020
This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is image-3.png
  • Announced that its reverse take-over by KABN Systems North America Inc. has been completed.
  • RTO was approved by shareholders of the Company on March 31, 2020 and is a “fundamental change” for the Company within the meaning of applicable policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange

Toronto, Ontario–(June 4, 2020) – KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. (formerly Torino Power Solutions Inc.) (CSE: TPS) (the “Company” or “Torino Power“) is pleased to announce that its reverse take-over (the “RTO“) by KABN Systems North America Inc. (“KABN North America“) has been completed. The RTO was approved by shareholders of the Company on March 31, 2020 and is a “fundamental change” for the Company within the meaning of applicable policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

In connection with the RTO, effective June 3, 2020 the Company changed its name to KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. and consolidated its shares on a 10 for 1 basis (the “Consolidation“).

The RTO was structured as an amalgamation of KABN North America and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company whereby the shareholders of KABN North America received post-Consolidation common shares of the Company in exchange for their common shares of KABN North America (“KABN Shares“). In accordance with the terms of the RTO, the Company issued a total of 59,777,942 post-Consolidation common shares to the shareholders of KABN North America in exchange for all of the outstanding KABN Shares based on a share exchange ratio of one post-Consolidation common share of the Company for each KABN Share. As part of the RTO, the Company assumed the obligation to issue common shares on the exercise of 13,799,968 warrants of KABN North America, 4,350,000 KABN North America options, and under certain other agreements and instruments. Further details can be found in the Company’s listing statement that will be available on SEDAR.

The Company also announces that on June 1, 2020, KABN North America completed its second tranche of its private placement financing of units of KABN North America (the “Units“) in connection with the RTO for additional gross proceeds of approximately $1,231,600. Each Unit was priced at $0.15 CDN and consisted of (a) one common share in the share capital of KABN North America and (b) one-half (1/2) KABN North America common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant having an exercise price of $0.20 for a period of 18 months from the date of issue. Aggregate gross proceeds of $2.2 million were raised by KABN North America in connection with the RTO.

Exchanges of Shares

Registered shareholders of the Company will receive a letter of transmittal from the Company’s transfer agent, Odyssey Trust Company, describing the process by which shareholders may obtain new certificates or DRS Advices representing their post-Consolidation common shares. Shares held in uncertificated form by shareholders through brokerage accounts will be converted through each shareholder’s brokerage account, and shareholders are not required to take any action to surrender for exchange common shares held in this way. Until surrendered, each certificate or DRS Advice representing common shares prior to the Consolidation will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of whole common shares to which the holder thereof is entitled as a result of the Consolidation.

Notwithstanding the letter of transmittal for KABN North America shareholders referred to in the management information circular of the Company dated February 24, 2020, the Company has determined to distribute the post-Consolidation common shares to be issued in the RTO by way of a direct “push-out” from the Company’s transfer agent.

Overstock CEO: Why Immunity Passports Could Move #Blockchain Tech Mainstream – SPONSOR: #KABN Systems North America Inc.

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:24 AM on Friday, May 22nd, 2020

SPONSOR: KABN Systems North America Inc. A Fintech platform focused on Verifying, Managing & Monetizing Online Identity. Immunity passports based on Blockchain technology? Why not for this and other matters. Liquid Avatar will make it easier to carry all kind of digital credentials, whether it’s a digital travel or immunity passport and a whole lot more with added biometric, blockchain and other multi-factor verification.

Overstock CEO: Why Immunity Passports Could Move Blockchain Tech Mainstream

By PYMNTS

In the early days of enforced social distancing measures, there was a presiding confidence that any economic disruption would be temporary and fairly short.

Analysts were nearly universally predicting a “V-shaped” U.S. recovery — a fast drop with a quick stop, then a rapid reset back to normal. End-to-end, things would recover by 2020’s end.

But things are looking far less certain now in that regard. While some experts are predicting a quick reset, a rising chorus of voices is noting that the slowdown might extend for some time still to come.

Still, PYMNTs’ surveys have found that consumers are eight times more afraid of dying from COVID-19 than they’re worried about losing their jobs or their nest eggs. As a result, many will need quite a bit of persuading when it comes to getting back out into the real world.

They must believe that the rewards of real-world commerce are worth the frictions and the risk to health — outweighing what they’ll receive if they eschew a physical experience for the digital ones they’ve become accustomed to over the past two months.

It’s a tall order, Overstock CEO Jonathan Johnson told Karen Webster in a recent digital discussion, but the power of blockchain can be critical in addressing it. He said he envisions using blockchain to create private, consumer-controlled “immunity passports” that will make it easier for customers and businesses to feel comfortable in a real-world environment.

That’s why Overstock’s investment arm Medici Ventures has turned toward firms like Evernym and Vital Chain. These startups are leveraging blockchain technology to create app-based solutions that will let individuals download and control their health records and selectively share them with businesses, industries and health organizations.

Johnson noted that when we think about what it will really take for the average consumer to feel safe sitting on an airplane, in a restaurant or at a store, it’s the knowledge that everyone around them is uninfected with coronavirus.

“I think the solution we are investing in developing is solving a problem that people are going to want solved,” he said. “An immunity passport is what that is going to look like for a lot of industries. If I can prove that I’ve got the antibodies or have steered clear of infection entirely, and I can show that on an immunity passport, that’s pretty powerful.”

Or at least it could be, in terms of providing a reentry plan for consumers and businesses that balances people’s need for privacy with their need to feel safe and confident interacting with the physical world. But, Johnson noted, the first challenge is adoption.

Leading People To Try A New Thing

Webster asked about the immunity passports being developed from blockchain compared to immunity-passport app usage being enforced by the Chinese government, and whether they are designed to function in a similar way.

“Well, I don’t ever want to say we’re similar to China,” Jackson noted, saying what mainly differentiates the immunity passport Overstock is investing in from the Chinese QR code-based option is choice.

The consumer chooses to access their health record via a blockchain transaction, then chooses which businesses they wish to share information with, he said.

What will likely push adoption is that some businesses have an incentive to use this technology — and require a submission of a clean immunity passport.

“If you are the Cleveland Indians or the Browns or Cavaliers, your biggest interest right now is getting people back into the seats and watching games in their stadium,” Johnson said. “That creates their incentive to require these.”

As for consumers, their motivation for adoption is pretty simple: They’ll want to go to a ball game, fly on a plane or eat in a restaurant and will have to participate to do so.

Will This Be Blockchain’s Time To Shine?

There’s a tendency when looking at decade-old blockchain technology to wonder why something billed as a “world-changing” innovation hasn’t had a bigger impact so far.

Johnson agreed that blockchain has been underutilized thus far, but he said he doesn’t believe that’s necessarily a reflection on the technology itself. He said Overstock continues to believe blockchain is “the most important advance since the invention of the internet.”

The trouble, he said, is blockchain tends to get mixed up with its first killer-use case — cryptocurrency.

As a transactional technology, cryptocurrency has uses that Overstock has seen on its retail site Overstock.com, Johnson said. To buy something via traditional means, customers have to cough up a lot of information about themselves — names, email addresses, credit card numbers, the extra security code and their shipping and billing addresses.

But when they buy with bitcoin, they only need to hand over a single piece of information — a shipping address. The use of blockchain technology creates a self -sovereign identity that imports directly into the transaction and allows for smoother and simpler authentication.

The trouble, Johnson noted, is bitcoin as a use case has speed issues in terms of timing transactions properly.

“I don’t think it is quite immediate enough for payments in some cases,” he said. “It’s tough when I’m in a 7-Eleven and I have to wait for the bitcoin blockchain to confirm the sale. That is not going to work for most people.”

But a solution that allows consumers and businesses to feel more comfortable returning to physical transactions will. And blockchain’s unique mechanism of securely transferring information in an unalterable way makes it ideally suited for building immunity passports — even if those using them have no idea that they’re working with blockchain.

In fact, Johnson said he advises the firms in which Overstock invests to stay away from mentioning blockchain technology too much because that will get them into a bunch of tangential conversations about cryptocurrency.

“I have worked for an internet company for a long time, [and] I have no idea how my phone works, but I know the apps, and I know how I like to use it, and I know the solutions it is offering me to the problems I need solved,” Johnson said. “I advise companies to talk about the problem [they’re addressing] and how the app solves it. The fact that it is on blockchain and that is why the solution works, that is less important.”
