PAYMETREX SECURES FIRST U.S. LICENSE PAYMENT

Datametrex AI Ltd.'s wholly owned subsidiary, Paymetrex Payment Solutions Inc., has formally launched a comprehensive patent licensing program designed to monetize its extensive intellectual property portfolio in the payments and transaction processing space.

As part of this initiative, Paymetrex has entered into a non-exclusive patent licence agreement with a well-known United States-based provider of payment solutions dated Feb. 6, 2026. Under the terms of the agreement, Paymetrex will receive an annual royalty payment of $400,000 (U.S.) for the remaining life of the applicable patents.

This first agreement represents a significant milestone in Paymetrex's strategy to unlock value from its proprietary technology assets and establishes a foundation for additional licensing opportunities across the payments ecosystem.

Paymetrex's patent portfolio includes the following issued patents in the United States and Canada:

U.S. patent No. 8,286,875

U.S. patent No. 8,281,998

U.S. patent No. 8,534,554

U.S. patent No. 10,592,894

U.S. patent No. 10,592,895

U.S. patent No. 10,970,709

U.S. patent No. 10,970,710

Canadian patent No. 2,752,053

Canadian patent No. 2,967,042

These patents cover foundational technologies related to secure transaction processing, payment authorization and integrated payment workflows that are widely used across the modern payments industry.

Artificial-intelligence-driven licensing and portfolio expansion

Building on Datametrex's expertise in artificial intelligence, Paymetrex will deploy AI-based analytical tools to identify high-probability licensing targets whose existing products and platforms may utilize technologies covered by the company's patents. This data-driven approach is expected to accelerate the identification of potential licensees and streamline engagement efforts.

In addition, Paymetrex intends to leverage these tools to identify and acquire complementary patent assets that can further strengthen and expand its intellectual property portfolio.

Management commentary

"Launching this licensing program marks an important evolution in how Paymetrex creates shareholder value," said Michael Kron, chief operating officer. "Our patent portfolio represents years of innovation in payment processing technology. This first agreement validates both the strength of our intellectual property and the opportunity ahead as we systematically pursue additional licensing arrangements."
