Paymetrex Launches Patent Licensing Program to Monetize Mobile Payments IP Portfolio

TORONTO, ONTARIO / ACCESS Newswire / February 2, 2026 / Datametrex AI Limited (the "Company" or "Datametrex'') (TSXV:DM)(FSE:D4G)(OTC:DTMXF) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Paymetrex Payment Solutions Inc. ("Paymetrex"), has launched a comprehensive patent licensing program designed to monetize its portfolio of mobile payments intellectual property.

Paymetrex's portfolio includes issued patents in the United States and Canada that cover its innovations in mobile and electronic payments, the earliest of which was filed in 2011, including:

• United States Patents:
  No. 8,286,875
  No. 8,281,998
  No. 8,534,554
  No. 10,592,894
  No. 10,592,895
  No. 10,970,709
  No. 10,970,710

• Canadian Patents:
  No. 2,752,053
  No. 2,967,042

These patents form part of a mature and commercially validated portfolio, with portions already licensed to industry participants. The existence of these licenses reflects both the strength and enforceability of the underlying intellectual property. Billions of dollars of mobile payment transactions occur annually. According to industry research from eMarketer, mobile point-of-sale payment volumes in the United States alone reached the high hundreds of billions of dollars annually, with volumes estimated at approximately $797 billion in 2025 based on prior forecasts (source: U.S. Mobile Payments Volume to Reach $797 Billion in 2025 and other Digital Transactions News briefs from 6/28/24 - Digital Transactions). Paymetrex will focus a licensing program on parties operating in this marketplace whose activities fall within the limits of its patent claims, as defined by applicable patent laws. Globally, digital wallet-based payments are expected to be among the fastest-growing payment methods, driven by anticipated strong adoption in both developed and emerging markets and projected double-digit growth rates in e-commerce and mobile transactions (source: Mobile payments with digital wallets - statistics & facts | Statista).

Through this licensing initiative, Paymetrex intends to pursue strategic partnerships with payment processors, fintech platforms, merchants, and infrastructure providers seeking certainty and protection in an increasingly complex payments ecosystem. By offering its licensing framework, Paymetrex aims to reduce IP risk for its partners while accelerating adoption of its payment infrastructure and enabling more flexible, secure, and efficient transaction solutions.

Paymetrex expects to announce additional licensing agreements and strategic partnerships as discussions progress and agreements are finalized.
