SinglePoint acquires GreenStar Payment Solutions

Monday, October 20, 2014 — 15:38:43 (EDT)

Seattle, Oct 15, 2014 -- SinglePoint, Inc. (OTC: SING) is pleased to announce that it has finalized the acquisition of GreenStar Payment Solutions, Inc. from its joint venture partners, Advanced Content Services and GreenHouse Payment Solutions, LLC with common shares in SinglePoint used as the primary form of consideration.

SinglePoint CEO Greg Lambrecht decided, in the interest of investors and success of the business, to buy out the two partners. The decision was made in order to streamline business operations and increase revenues per transaction.

SinglePoint CEO Greg Lambrecht states, "We entered into the GreenStar Payment Solutions joint venture to speed our entry into the cannabis space. We now feel comfortable in our connections and knowledge to move forward in being a leading payment solutions provider to the recreational and medical cannabis industries."

The State of Legal Marijuana Markets 2nd Edition (Nov. 2013) finds that the five-year national market potential is $10.2 billion. With 24 states now selling marijuana legally for medicinal use and two of those selling for recreational use most believe it is only a matter of time before many more follow. Projections look promising, as the November 4th vote approaches there are 3 states and a US territory that will vote for legalization.

"We are thrilled with the acquisition," states SinglePoint CEO, Greg Lambrecht. "The GreenStar brand is nationally recognized and respected in the industry. This acquisition is in the best interest of SinglePoint shareholders. It will consolidate ownership, increase revenues and build a strong focus on branding and operations."

SinglePoint is ready to welcome GreenStar to the ever-growing family including Text2Bid™, Pay by Text™, and SingleSeed Payments.
