Combination to Provide Second Major Revenue Stream, Digital Advertising and Location-Based Technology for the Cannabis Vertical, with Significant Streaming Video Synergies

SITO Mobile Ltd. an insights-driven Consumer Behavior and Location Sciences™ company, andMediaJel, Inc. (“MediaJel”), a leading provider of advertising and marketing solutions for the cannabis industry, tannounced that they have entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which SITO will acquire 100% of the equity interests of MediaJel.

MediaJel provides state-of-the-art advertising solutions for the digitally converged world, helping brands conquer and identify fragmentation created by today’s consumers researching buying decisions on multiple fixed and mobile devices. MediaJel helps brands influence decision-making at the individual level – not the device level – and converge multiple identities to minimize waste, maximize spend and significantly increase conversion rates. MediaJel’s primary focus is on the cannabis industry, a business vertical primed for TV advertising. While the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) prohibits cannabis advertisements on network and cable television, such restrictions do not impact over-the-top (OTT) streaming, the fastest growing segment of the video industry.
