Growing digital technology company, Pay88, Inc., announced today that it has signed a Letter of Intent to merge with Hongmeida Enterprise Group, a privately owned investment and financial services firm.
Hongmeida Enterprise, located in Western China, mainly engages in raw materials investment and financial services. The company also has a professional pawn business (mortgage finance) license. In 2008, the Hongmeida’s annual income totaled approximately RMB 75,375,318.
Industry insiders believe that the agreement with Hongmeida is a powerful step to revitalize and grow Pay88. In principle, the agreement states that Pay88 can acquire Hongmeida Enterprise Group with common stock in a currently undetermined amount.

This Deal with Hongmeida Enterprise Group will allow us to use our payment platform and existing banking relationships in China to a much wider consumer audience.” He added, “As a result of this new relationship, Qianbao Technology will have the ability to add revenue sources that have the potential to bring a great deal of revenue.”
