ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

Company Announcements Office Australian Securities Exchange Limited

Additional information regarding agreement with Cebuana Lhuillier

PERTH, AUSTRALIA, 13 APRIL 2021: Peppermint Innovation Ltd ( ASX: PIL ) (“Peppermint” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to provide some additional information in relation to the strategic Merchant Biller Agreement with the Philippines' largest and leading micro-financial services provider, Cebuana Lhuillier (" Cebuana ") announced on 12 April 2021.

The agreement, which allows bizmoto agents to "cash-in" money at any one of Cebuana's 2,500 shop fronts and accredited stories nationwide, will enable agents to 'top-up' their mobile wallets instantly, allowing them the ability to transact with more customers.

The Cebuana Merchant Biller agreement does not earn direct revenue for the Company however (as noted in the 12 April announcement by the Company) Peppermint does earn a system fee every time a bizmoto agent performs a transaction utilising the bizmoto platform. The system fee earnt by the Company varies from a flat fee to a percentage of the transaction value, dependent on what type of transaction is performed. At the present time the Company earns up to 6% of the transaction value on the majority of transactions across the bizmoto platform but it expects this to increase as other bizmoto services become established and more significant.
