NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Nov 2, 2015) - World Moto, Inc. (OTC: FARE) (BERLIN: WM7) (BERLIN: A1J8SY) ("World Moto" or the "Company"), a leader in advanced solutions for motorcycle taxis and on-demand transport, today announced that it has signed its second HailYes™ Licensee since launching the HailYes™ Licensee Program only 3 weeks ago.
World Moto today announced an agreement to license HailYes™ in two of Indonesia's major cities. HailYes™ licenses were issued for Jambi City, the capital of Jambi province which is home to nearly 4 million people on the island of Sumatra, and Batam, the fastest-growing municipality and 8th largest city in Indonesia. Batam is the closest part of Indonesia to Singapore and known as the production leg of the free trade zone called the Indonesia-Malaysia-Singapore Growth Triangle. Indonesia is the world's fourth-most-populous country with over 255 million people, and represents a considerable opportunity with its vast fleets of automobile taxis and motorcycle taxis.
"The HailYes licensee program opens the door to highly-scalable growth with minimal upfront investment from World Moto," said CEO Paul Giles. "The road to profitable capitalization of this immense global market begins by engaging the licensees that will take us there. Licensees are the human capital that will help promote HailYes™ on a local level, throughout the world.
Under the HailYes™ license, the Licensee will get exclusive rights to use and market the HailYes™ e-hailing platform in both Jambi City and Batam, and will receive the benefits of tourists and businessmen that use HailYes™ and roam into their territory.
The HailYes™ Licensee Program is a pioneering, new program to provide interested parties and entrepreneurs with the opportunity to license the world's first open ride-hailing application, HailYes™. People anywhere in the world can now license the HailYes™ smartphone application and platform and instantly connect consumers to transport and commerce services in their local community. HailYes™ is freely available for download worldwide, allowing people to simply press a button on their phone and get a safe, affordable ride in minutes.
