We have specified more technical details as well as how many clients are lined up to use the product. We have also specified how Stellar will be used in WageLink, and how it will play a big role in what we are trying to do with WageLink. 

WageLink is an up-and-coming super payroll app, developed by Zebec, that allows employees to receive their pay up to one week early. Additionally, WageLink offers an array of features that caters to the evolving needs of today’s workforce. Key features include:(1) mobile payment capabilities that enables employees to make transactions directly from their phones, and (2) budgeting tools to empower individuals to track their expenses and saving goals. Over 62% of Americans today live paycheck to paycheck, and 4.5% are unbanked. WageLink aims to provide viable and accessible financial tools for Americans to access their hard-earned wages to be able to focus on being more productive at work instead of worrying about financial troubles. The WageLink app is designed to be intuitive, making it easy for everyone, no matter how tech savvy, to access and keep track of their wages, expenses and spending habits.
