SHAREHOLDER FAQ's

1) Is the company considering a Reverse Split?

I have been contacted by many shareholders with this similar question regarding a reverse split. We have considered this move to reduce the structure of the shares but did not feel it would be in the interest of all shareholders. We would like to hear from you so please forward your reply to support@gosmartcard.com subject line: your response yes or no.

2) Is the company being Acquired?

We are contacted on a regular basis by companies in the financial services industry wanting to take advantage of our technology, products and client list. At this time we are building the company and creating value for our shareholders and feel that unless the potential acquirer is to buy the complete public entity we have not pursued the matter.

3) Are the filings to upgrade Status ready?

At this time the filings are ready and being submitted for review. As we prepare to file the 3rd quarter financials we will jointly submit the filings to receive approval from Pinksheets for current status from limited information.

We seek safe harbour.
