October 22, 2020 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- via Seeking Alpha
-- iQSTEL, Inc. (USOTC:
IQST) announced the market
segment focus of the company's recently launched Fintech Division
is the global migrant population.
The United Nations reports
that the annual global migrant population growth exceeds the number
of new births globally, with the largest number of the world's
migrants residing within the United States.
The number of international migrants reached 272 million
globally in 2019.
Migrants have specific financial management criteria that often
cannot be met by the ordinary and readily available Fintech
products such as PayPal and Venmo. Opening a bank account in a new
country and often being paid in cash for work are just some of the
challenges faced by migrant works.
Building on top of the company's $16 million in revenue from
telecommunication services reported in the company's audited 2019
annual financial report and the $16 million in revenue reported
through June 2020, IQST has now launched a Fintech Division to
provide financials service alternatives to the common PayPal and
Venmo type applications not readily available to the world's
growing 272 million population.
Below are of some of the targeted Fintech products and services
designed specifically for the global immigrant population:
- Send money domestically and internationally with low fees.
- Send money via SMS using a customized SMS service (smartphone
not required).
- Pay utility bills with minimal payment fees (mobile,
electricity, gas services).
- VISA debit card solution.
According to Global X and Mauro F. Romaldini (TopTal), the
Fintech industry is growing at an almost exponential rate with over
$500B in annual remittances and over $1.5T in annual mobile
payments.
Look for more news coming soon on IQST's Fintech Division.

Conclusion
IQST has consistently delivered exceptionally high growth close
to 50% year over year and quarter over quarter and is now
positioning to blow the doors off this outstanding performance with
the entry into Fintech serving a huge underserved
multi-billion-dollar market. With a paltry 78.2 million shares
outstanding and 2019 revenues of about $18 million that were
profitable, BioResearchAlert finds IQST shares exceptionally
undervalued and poised to appreciate several multiples of the
current price of $.06 per share. Price targets are always difficult
to establish, but industry comps for Fintech, Telecom, Blockchain,
Crypto Currencies suggest that IQST share price would be more
fairly priced at over $1.00 per share.
