SANTA MONICA, CA, - (http://www.financialnewsmedia.com News Alert) - U-Vend, Inc. (OTCQB: UVND), a consumer products and technology company that develops, distributes, and markets next-generation self-serve electronic kiosks announced today a multi-year, North American licensing agreement with the National Hockey League. The agreement includes usage of NHL(R) team branded marks on U-Vend, Inc.'s 'Puck Premium Ice Cream(TM).' 

This summer, fans across Canada will be able to purchase puck-shaped ice cream bars featuring NHL-branded hockey stick-shaped sticks from retail freezer merchandisers, located in convenience stores and large national retail grocery stores. Beginning in the summer of 2016, the 'Pucks Premium Ice Cream(TM)' product will expand to the United States, and will be available to fans from vending machines and self-serve kiosk freezers in both countries.

"Our new partnership with the National Hockey League -- a global brand -- is a significant event for U-Vend. We are very excited to not only be named the Official Ice Cream of the NHL, but to also be joining an elite group in the NHL family," stated Raymond Meyers, CEO of U-Vend, Inc. "This partnership affords tremendous opportunities for us to amplify our brand. We are looking forward to a long and successful relationship with the NHL."

Unique to U-Vend, these ice cream pucks will be available in specialty self-serve vending machines and 'grab-and-go' kiosks, each with built-in digital product and advertising screens and featuring NHL branding. Both machines will carry the team-branded Pucks Premium ice cream exclusively.

"U-Vend is a great addition to the NHL's thriving roster of licensees, with exclusivity in a unique category for us," said Barry Monaghan, NHL VP, Retail Sales and Marketing. "Their NHL-branded product is perfect for the League's passionate hockey fans, who consume the game year-round."

"We believe we have created a strong and multi-faceted marketing engine with the introduction of the Pucks brand," said Paul Neelin, Founder of U-Vend and Chief Operating Officer. "Not only are we able to brand the outside wrapper of the Pucks ice cream bar, but we'll also print NHL team marks on the mini hockey stick that is inserted into the ice cream Puck, making it very collectable."

Forward Looking Statements:

To the extent that statements contained in this press release are not descriptions of historical facts regarding Tapinator, they are forward-looking statements reflecting the current beliefs and expectations of management made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "may," "will" "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," and similar expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements contained in this press release include, among others, statements regarding the quoting and trading of our common stock and our expectations regarding our development and monetization plans for our mobile games. Forward-looking statements in this release involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could cause the development and monetization of our mobile games, future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, the uncertainties inherent in the hits nature of the mobile gaming business. Tapinator undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements. The quoting and trading of the company's common stock on the OTC Market Group's OTC Link quotation system is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices, due to many factors that may have little to do with the company's operations or business prospects. As a result, there may be volatility in the market price of the shares of the company's common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Market Group's OTC Link quotation system is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on it is often more sporadic than trading of securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock market or another securities exchange. Accordingly, stockholders may have difficulty reselling any of their shares. For a further description of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, as well as risks relating to the business of the company in general, see Tapinator's filings with the OTC Market Group, which are available through http://www.otcmarkets.com.
