The Solution to Blockage Projected to Strengthen Cash Flow
MIAMI, FL, June 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE --Novus Acquisition and Development, Corp. (OTC Markets: NDEV), through its wholly-owned subsidiary WCIG Insurance Services, Inc., a diversified insurance entity in health, liability, annuity and accident, and, the nationâs first carrier/aggregator offering a cannabis health plan, is pleased to announce that this coming September, Novus Cannabis MedPlan will begin accepting credit cards for policy payments.
For years management has been searching for a
processor to provide transactional ACH/credit cards as opposed to
collecting checks through the mail. After being shut down by banks
and/or merchant providers in the past, Novus has finally
established a relationship with Authorize, a leading credit card
processing platform. The Companyâs workaround strategy, being that
we donât touch or sell the plant, we provide insurance benefits to
patient/members and this appears to be satisfactory.
We are witnessing relaxing banking policies thanks to the effort
of The SAFE Banking Act of 2019 (The Act) introduced
by U.S. Senator Bob Menendez, a senior member of the Senate
Banking Committee. Notwithstanding the denial from the inflexible
banking system due to the threat of being prosecuted under federal
law, this has not the stopped Novusâ progress in the booming
cannabis industry, but it certainly helps by reducing as many
regulatory impediments as possible.
Novusâs Chief Executive Officer, Frank Labrozzi,
states, âItâs about obtaining banking services that most other
businesses take for granted. We are handcuffed by regulatory,
advertising and banking; itâs like going into a prize fight with
one arm tied behind your back. This Act is a testament
to the cannabis industry showing its maturity and moving forward as
it should operate as normal legitimate businesses.â
We invite you to do your due diligence here:
About Novus
Novus Acquisition & Development Corp. (NDEV), through its
subsidiary WCIG Insurance, provides health insurance and related
insurance solutions within the wellness and medical marijuana
industries in states where legal programs exist. Novus has
developed its infrastructure within many lines of the insurance
business such as, health, property & casualty, life, accident
and fixed annuities.
Novus medical cannabis benefits package will work as outside developers and will not cultivate, handle, transport grow, extract, dispense, put up for sale, put on the market, vend, deliver, supply, circulate, or trade cannabis or any substances that violate the United States law or the Controlled Substances Act, nor does it intend to do so in the future and will continue to follow state and federal laws. The statements made about specific products have not been evaluated by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. All information provided on these press releases or any information contained on or in any product label or packaging is for informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for advice from your physician or other health care professional. Once a push notification is competed the transaction is solely between the state-licensed dispensary and the registered patient.
The state laws are in conflict with the federal Controlled Substances Act. The current administration has effectively stated that it is not an efficient use of resources to direct federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state designated laws, allowing the use and distribution of medical marijuana. However, there is no guarantee that the current administration, nor any future administration, will not change this policy and decide to enforce the federal laws strongly. Any such change in the federal government's enforcement of current federal laws could cause significant financial changes to Novus Medical Group. While we do not intend to harvest, distribute or sell cannabis or cannabis related products, we may be harmed by a change in enforcement by federal or state governments or third party payment processing platfroms.
