Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - December 6, 2018) - Fintech incubator and blockchain development company, APPx Group Holdings, Inc. (CSE: APPX) (FSE: APO) (the "Company" or "APPx"), announced they have been working closely with Scalar Decisions Inc. ("Scalar") to complete testing and compliance reviews for CatchCoin™, their augmented reality rewards platform where participating brick and mortar retailers, mall owners, and event venues get measurable foot traffic at their locations with a great return on investment (ROI).

Scalar performed penetration testing for the CatchCoin™ platform's web application, REST API, iOS application, and Android application. Scalar, ranked as the #1 Canadian Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Security Company on Branham Group's annual Branham300 listing five years running, also performed application source code compliance reviews and application architecture reviews for both Android and iOS.

The CatchCoin™ platform will give retailers and other businesses and events providers control over when and to whom their ads are served. The platform has an ad-scheduling feature, which advertisers can use to attract customers to their locations during downtimes in order to boost potential revenue by increasing foot-traffic and promoting high-margin merchandise while maximizing staff productivity. The users will benefit from real cash rewards they receive for visiting the locations of participating businesses. Their reward can be boosted by making a purchase - all of these details can be defined and adjusted within the CatchCoin™ Location Portal by advertisers any time as they see fit.

Kyle Maglio, VP of Product Development at APPx, said, "CatchCoin™ isn't just a loyalty or reward points app, it is a real-money rewards app. Our clients put real money in, our users get real money out, and it's paramount to us that the platform is secure end-to-end. As a geolocation-based app, the need for security is doubly important-to prevent spoofing and to ensure clients and customers have a safe, secure and seamless experience. We chose to work with Scalar because they are the best, and they have proven that with their work on CatchCoin™. Going forward, we plan to engage Scalar for upcoming projects in our Fintech division."

"Scalar is so excited about the amazing innovation happening at APPx, and equally as proud to have worked on CatchCoin™. This app will change the landscape of online rewards," says Theo Van Wyk, Chief Security Architect at Scalar. "Our team is excited to have contributed to a framework that supports a safe and secure platform, that users will be confident to transact with."
