Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 26, 2018) - Upco International Inc. (CSE: UPCO) (OTCQB: UCCPF) (FSE:
U06) ("Upco") is pleased to provide this progress update regarding its secure telecom and application platform, which continues to
evolve and improve as part of the corporate business plan. Upco's fully encrypted communication app has been downloaded by users in
Europe, the Middle East, South Asia, and Canada, and the company continues to work toward the delivery of a fully integrated,
multi-channel platform, which includes support for payment processing and currency transfers. Work in this area is ongoing with our
strategic partners Transfer-To (www.transfer-to.com) and Emoney
plc (www.emoney.com.mt).
Payment processing has evolved significantly in recent years due to advancements in technology coupled with changes in customer

addressing through its multi-channel application.
Upco's CEO and President, Andrea Pagani noted, "When we created our e-wallet, which is the foundation for the more robust
payment solution that is in progress, our goal was to provide family, friends, and our user community with a unique opportunity to
further improve and streamline their interactions in an on-line world. With the work that is underway, we believe we have all the
elements of a successful product, which will provide voice and text communications, while also supporting transaction processing
and transfer of funds on a global scale."
