New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - April 8, 2015) - Yappn Corp. ("Yappn" or "Company") (OCTQB: YPPN) is pleased to announce that it is developing, Wonring.com (www.wonring.com), a global platform, online, mobile and app, to connect major social networks together through a single interface, allowing commercial and personal instant text and voice messaging in up to 67 languages. This ground breaking technology is based in part on Yappn's partnership with a division of Intertainment Media Inc. (TSXV:INT / US:ITMTF / FRA:I4T), branded TranzActive, who was granted United States Patent No. 8,983,850 B2 on March 17, 2015 providing for a Translation System and Method for Multiple Instant Message Networks.
Wonring.com, scheduled to launch by late summer 2015, on social networks to cross message, share information and create a host of commercial opportunities including flash sales, links to online stores as well as providing semantic language technology integration for responsive advertising and related content programs all in multiple languages on up to 50 different networks with potentially more to follow.
Through Wonring.com, Yappn will also be able to connect multilingual Ecommerce stores and brand engagement programs allowing brands, merchants, non-profits and other organizations to engage in cross promotion over a multitude of social networks and languages.
"With a multitude of social and communications networks available to online users, there is a need to cross the social, economic and language barrier, allowing everyone a free flow of communication and commerce," said Mr. David Lucatch, Founder and CEO of Yappn. "With Yappn's real-time language and Ecommerce services, in combination with Intertainment's divisional patent, the opportunity exists to increase our position as a leader in cross language communication and create a truly global social engagement and Ecommerce opportunities."
Instant Messaging is on the rise across the globe and Juniper Research predicts that it will account for 75% of mobile messaging traffic by 2018.
The Wonring.com platform reflects the original concept that facilitated the filing of the US Patent in which Intertainment Media was able to connect millions of people across the language barrier in real-time. Wonring.com builds on that initial success by connecting people and by providing brand building, Ecommerce and advertising in a global setting where the user and the sender can engage in their native language in real-time without the need for any external translation and facilitate economic and social transactions.
Wonring.com will enable brands, celebrities and social influencers to reach a wider audience making it easy to connect with constituents. Etailers can provide information to customers across the road and across the globe instantly and direct them to their online stores, which can be enabled with Yappn's Ecommerce services allowing them to interact with customers in their native language.
