Good

"Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as

In
today’s podcast we look at a few public and private company announcements.
Dosist™
Canada
today
announced a new exclusive partnership with Medical Cannabis by
Shoppers Inc. to supply its innovative dose-controlled cannabis products as
part of the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers™ offering.
Shoppers will now offer patients
eight dosist product formulations, which include core formulas such as calm, rest, and soothe, all of which deliver a precise balance of THC:CBD to
provide targeted results, as well as three new high potency THC-plus formulas.
These formulas are administered via dosist's proprietary inhalable devices,
providing patients with the first and only precision dosing inhalable products
in the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers
offering.
Since launching in 2016, dosist has
become a globally recognized brand through its award-winning products, focus on
testing and quality, and recognition from companies like Time and Fast Company. As
the pioneer of dose-controlled cannabis technology and a leader in quality of
life need-state formulations, dosist has consistently established itself as one
of the top selling brands in its category in the largest legal US cannabis
market (California).
"We are extremely proud to
partner with such a trusted and respected retailer as Shoppers Drug Mart,"
said Gunner Winston, CEO of dosist. "Their integrity and history in
providing for the medical needs of Canadians is unparalleled, and reflects very
strongly our shared commitment to enabling and empowering Canadians to live
better. We look forward to bringing our proprietary dose controlled products
and natural formulas to Shoppers patients across the country."
Consistent with Shoppers' commitment
to providing full product transparency, dosist is one of the only brands in
Canada that posts all of its formula batch tests online, allowing patients to
see that the products they are inhaling are natural and contaminant free.
dosist has also partnered with Shoppers and UHN on the Medical Cannabis
Real-World Evidence clinical trial, studying the effects of fully validated
cannabis product on sleep, anxiety and depression.
"We are proud to be the only
national brand to make dosist products available to Canadians who consume
cannabis for medical and wellness reasons," said Ken Weisbrod, Vice
President, Business Development/Cannabis Strategy, Shoppers Drug Mart. "We
are pleased to bring this innovative and measured platform for cannabis use to
our consumers today."
All dosist formulas are administered
via their proprietary dose-controlled inhalable technology, which includes the
new dose pen rechargeable system by
dosist, an exclusive closed-loop dose pen system created by combining the dose
controller and formula pods (both sold separately) for a rechargeable and
flexible experience, and the dose pen
100, a sleek and convenient disposable device. Both inhalable devices
deliver a precise 2.5 mg dose of formula each time, alerting the patient of a
complete dose with a haptic vibration before shutting off.
The five dosist core formulas now
available at shoppersdrugmart.ca/cannabis are:
● calm (1:6 thc-to-cbd
ratio) – designed to help relax your mind and body
● soothe (2:1 thc-to-cbd
ratio) – designed to help ease the mind and body
● rest (8:1 thc-to-cbd
radio) – designed to help you feel rested
● bliss (9:1 thc-to-cbd
ratio) – designed to help you feel just the right amount of good
● arouse (10:1 thc-to-cbd
ratio) – designed to help awaken your senses and stimulate your mind
The three THC-plus formulas now
available are:
● bliss thc-plus – an
invigorating blend of high-potency cannabis designed to deliver feelings of
euphoria and energy
● arouse thc-plus – a
balanced blend of high-potency cannabis designed to deliver feelings of
stimulation and clarity
● relax thc-plus – a tranquil blend
of high-potency cannabis designed to deliver feelings of ease and relaxation
dosist products are available to
patients now through the Medical Cannabis
by Shoppers ecommerce site. Medical Cannabis by Shoppers Inc. provides
patient access to select medical cannabis products which can be ordered online
or via phone, and shipped directly and discreetly to their doorstep. The
Shoppers Cannabis Care team – a dedicated call center staffed by
cannabis-trained advisors and pharmacists – provides guidance and support for
patients.
Namaste
Technologies Inc. (TSXV:
N)
(OTC:
NXTTF), a leading online platform for cannabis products,
accessories, and responsible education, today
announced an agreement with Lifted Innovations Inc., a private
B2C e-commerce company selling cannabis-related accessories and ancillary
products in the United States and Canada. In connection with the Agreement and
Namaste's strategic partner status, Lifted issued 3,065,000 common shares to
Namaste, constituting, at the time of issuance, an undiluted 5% shareholding.
The Transaction, including the
Offer, has now been completed and Namaste has received 3,065,000 common shares
of PeakBirch in exchange for the Lifted Shares, constituting approximately an

The Agreement provides that Namaste

businesses; and potential opportunities relating to the licensing of technology.
The Agreement also provides a release in favour of Lifted and certain releasees

XTM,
Inc.
(CSE:
PAID), a Toronto-based Fintech company in the challenger
banking space, providing mobile banking and payment solutions around the world today
announced it has signed a Letter of Intent ("LOI")
with one of the largest online cannabis retailers in the U.S. to launch a
proprietary cashless payment network.
This will be the first of its kind,
bank grade, fully compliant, community currency, closed loop solution for any
company or business looking to eliminate cash and process real-time payments
including but not limited to licensed Cannabis companies. A new web site www.CaliCard.com is being
established and physical cards will soon be in production.
As part of the terms of the LOI XTM
will private label its existing mobile wallet and payment network technology,
finalize development for merchant settlements, arrange the banking
partnerships, manage the network and license the technology to a new entity of
which XTM will own 50%. The other party will adopt and roll-out the technology
across all its e-commerce platforms and will leverage its contacts for sales
and marketing of the solution.
Cash used in U.S. legal marijuana
sales was estimated to be in excess of $8 billion in 2019.
The added security risks and costs
of transacting in cash are significant.
Existing solutions are overcomplicated, not fully compliant, expensive
and subject to fraud and chargebacks.
Merchants say service offerings currently available to the industry are
lacking in compatibility and do not provide consumers with the user experience
they have come to expect in today's digital world. They are subject to high transaction fees and
are waiting for days to collect the proceeds from their sales.
With this new closed-loop payment
network, users will quickly and easily sign up via mobile app for free. As part of the sign-up process they will link
their debit card as the method of funding the virtual card and wallet in
real-time. Merchants will receive same
day settlements in a partner bank dedicated account issued to each merchant. As well XTM is incorporating its industry
leading Know Your Customer ("KYC") technology into the application to
enable users to be screened for age and identity validation, dramatically
reducing chargebacks and fraud. As part
of the rollout of the program each user will be delivered a physical card allowing
for purchases to be made at bricks and mortar locations and will also allow
access to a cash load network.
The Company has already received
interest from other parties looking for the solution and expects to board a
significant number of merchants before the end of the year. With the current annual run rate sales of the
other party and expected percentage of sales to be migrated to the platform
coupled with a few additional merchants, the Company anticipates to be
processing in excess of $50M in run-rate annual volume and 500K transactions
per month by the end of the year.
XTM is looking forward to providing
a positive customer checkout experience using CaliCard.com that is real-time,
fully compliant and cashless and expects this will in turn significantly
increase efficiencies, sales volumes and net margins for merchants.
Further details regarding the
product and launch date will be announced shortly and updates will be posted on
the dedicated web site www.CaliCard.com.

Capital Inc. (CSE:
AUSA) (OTC:
