Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 6, 2019) - LOOPShare Ltd. (TSXV: LOOP) (OTCQB: LPPPF), the world's first fully-integrated electric scooter sharing platform, has been approved to up-list from the OTC Pink® to the OTCQB® Venture Market, with its common stock to commence trading on the exchange beginning Tuesday, May 7, 2019 under the symbol, "LPPPF."

The shares will continue to be dual listed, trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "LOOP." The company’s common shares have also received DTC eligibility by The Depository Trust Company (DTC) for electronic settlement and transfer in the United States.

"Joining the OTCQB elevates LOOPShare's profile in the investment community, which we expect to improve liquidity and broaden our shareholder base," said LOOPShare's president and CEO, Anwar Sukkarie. "It represents the next step in our capital and corporate development strategy designed to build shareholder value as we begin the global launch of our ridesharing service with the deployment of more than 400 e-scooters in key markets around the world."

Earlier this year, LOOPShare announced plans to deploy the 400 e-scooters across at least eight cities internationally with a targeted initial deployment beginning in the second quarter of 2019. It recently initiated a new partnership with GreenMo, a European market leader in electric vehicle rentals, with plans to launch a pilot deployment of 55 Loop e-scooters in the Netherlands.

Operated by The OTC Markets, the OTCQB is the premier marketplace for entrepreneurial and development stage U.S. and international companies that are committed to providing a high-quality trading and information experience for U.S. investors. To be eligible, companies must be current in their financial reporting, pass a minimum bid price test, and undergo an annual company verification and management certification process.

The DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). It manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through the DTC are considered "DTC eligible." This electronic method of clearing securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, and thus accelerates the settlement process for investors and brokers reducing transactional costs for participating brokerage firms, enabling the stock to be traded over a much wider selection of brokerage firms by coming into compliance with their requirements.
