CanIDeal Status Update: 6/18 – 6/22 - CanIDeal

Happy Friday, everyone!

Things are moving rather quickly here at CanIDeal, and as such, our team will be providing weekly status updates, both on our blog and via email blasts (you can subscribe to our newsletter here). We feel that as CanIDeal’s progress continues to gain pace, it’s important that we share new developments as they occur each week. So, without further adieu, here are this week’s updates:

  • The investment round for the vendor side of the website will be drawing to a close this week, meaning we’ll be launching our vendor site in approximately one month. Once live, vendors will be able to load their content onto the site; this is a massive step towards launching, as we’re providing vendors with their end of the product to begin using.

  • As a highly anticipated development, BDS Analytics has finished our cost-side review and are just weeks away from completing the report, which will result in a new valuation update for CanIDeal.
  • In the area of investment, we are generating serious interest from major funding sources.  With such large-scale investments, our launch window for the first five states in which CanIDeal will operate is 4 – 6 months.

  • Between now and the release of the new report, we would like to announce CanIDeal’s increase of unit cost from $1/unit to $2/unit.

Stay tuned for more weekly blog updates as we roll them out, and sign up to receive more information from the CanIDeal team!
