RNS Number : 9017S Mode Global Holdings PLC 19 November 2021
Mode Global Holdings PLC
("Mode" or "the Company" or "the Group")
Clarification statement
Mode Global Holdings PLC (LSE:MODE), the LSE-listed Fintech Group, notes press
commentary following its 18 November 2021 announcement (the "Announcement") of
its new standalone affiliate product. Mode wishes to clarify, for the
avoidance of doubt, information related to this announcement.
The Company reaffirms that it will launch its standalone affiliate product in
Q2 2022, which will see Mode customers receiving Bitcoin Cashback from
participating online retailers in the UK. Currently, over 40 online retailers
have accepted Mode onto their affiliate programmes.
In the Announcement, certain specific brands were referenced who, at that
time, had approved Mode to be part of their affiliate programmes, through a
number of intermediary affiliate platforms.
As with all affiliate programmes of this nature, it is at the discretion of
the retailer as to how long they wish to remain involved in the programme.
Some of those specified brands have since withdrawn Mode as an affiliate.
Customers will be able to browse Cashback offers from participating retailers
on the Mode app, before going to the selected retailer's website to complete
their purchase. Mode receives a commission in GBP, converts the Cashback into
Bitcoin, before crediting the Bitcoin into the customer's Mode account, where
they can store the asset or take advantage of the Company's FCA registered
exchange to grow their Bitcoin.
Mode's Bitcoin Cashback affiliate product is separate from the Company's other
offerings, which include Mode's previously launched Open Banking payments and
instant Bitcoin Cashback solution. The full list of participating retailers,
as well as the details of their affiliate cashback terms, will be displayed in
the Mode app at the time of launch.
