Guac B2B Loyalty as a Service Update - Bank and Enterprise Partners

We’ve got a lot of exciting news to report and would love the opportunity to bring you up to speed on what’s happening at Guac. We will continue to provide updates as we are excited to share!

Guac generated just over $3M in platform purchases in 2023, netting $400k+ in direct revenue. We have significant growth projected for 2024 and beyond, driven from current contracted partnerships. A key driver of Guac’s growth will be Payments.

Guac’s technology utilizes low-cost ACH rails with automated distributions at the time of payment, eliminating credit card fees and redistributing those dollars back to the merchant and their customers. Matched with our best-in-class loyalty rewards platform, Guac is well positioned to completely flip the business-to-business payments space on its head.

Our business-to-business partners are calling Guac Pay “The Stripe Killer”… and Stripe is currently valued at $50B. We are projected to save our first business-to-business enterprise partner $100M+ over the next 5 years, with an additional $25M+ in revenue to Guac. 

Our business partnerships are not limited to payments; with regional, community banks & credit unions continuing to request Guac’s technology. We currently have 1,029 banks under contract, and each is set to go live in 2024. We are conservatively projecting $23M in platform sales, netting $3.4M in direct revenue in 2024. This continues to grow to over $50M in direct revenue to Guac in 2026.

Hello Ryan it’s been 4 years in this deal manipulated by Demond on Republic but after initial investment, I have never received any update; GUAC still unlisted, how can I follow my investment?

Hi Ryan, Thanks for the message, but I actually find this a bit of a weird update. It just says that the company has a good product and that the market is big and some successful fintech's are acquired. We invested 3 years and are interested in Revenue, growth, P&L, cash position, burn rate, other investments since the republic round and if so at which valuation and investment plans. It feels like a piece of a pitch for a new investment round. Would really appreciate to hear a bit more.

I invested in Guac in 2022 and would like to know what is the status and plan for the company going forward for investors, not the company. Nice numbers but can we trust them? Where is the visibility/transparency.

this feels like "we only want one time investors" so they have no leverage.

I guess Ryan Armstrong is too busy to answer our questions, especially now that all of us have invested already ! Oh well, like anything else, doesn’t surprise me a bit. Do any of you have any information on how in a Guac investor can sell their holdings ? My thought is, I might as well go ahead and try to sell my holdings since I can’t get any information from Guac or it’s CEO regarding the current value of holdings or an estimated time when Guac will go public !!??
