OTC: DRCR, Swifty Global (Dear Cashmere Holding Company), Updates on the Status of its Gambling Licenses
Dear Cashmere Holding Company, known as Swifty Global (Swifty), is a technology company focused on creating groundbreaking solutions in the Financial and Sports Betting Sectors. The company has developed two disruptive mobile applications (apps) for sports predictions and a digital wallet which encompasses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cryptocurrency/Blockchain Transactions. Patent applications have already been submitted and the mobile apps will be launched during the fourth quarter of 2021, following the imminent approval of Swifty Global’s gambling license.
The Swifty Predictions app offers betting opportunities on every major global sport league, including NFL, NHL, NBA, Football (soccer), Cricket, Rugby, Golf, Boxing, UFC, Tennis, Horse Racing, Motor Racing, Snooker and more.
To allow legal participation, Swifty has several gambling licenses pending in various regions around the world and intends to complete global licensing within 12 months. The Curaçao license is the first license which is expected very soon. The application and compliance process has successfully been completed and Swifty now only awaits the physical certification to be delivered which is expected very soon. The Curaçao license covers most of the world markets and less mainstream, but nonetheless, very important and sizeable markets such as Africa, India, and most of Europe, which equates to a population of approximately 3.34 billion. The license covers India, which has a population of well over 1 billion and is obsessed with cricket and European football (Soccer). With the Curaçao license in place, Swifty will have an opportunity to provide the Swifty Sports Predictions app and the Swifty wallet to this valuable market. The same license also covers Canada, France, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Germany, and Italy, all who have huge betting populations that will be able to use Swifty. The Curaçao license will give Swifty access to passionate and lucrative sports betting populations, the ideal springboard for further global growth as further licenses are approved.
The second license which Swifty has applied for, is for the significantly more mainstream market of the United Kingdom (UK), which the company hopes to have approved in the 1st quarter of 2022. The UK license naturally allows Swifty to participate in the UK and Northern Ireland market which currently has 31.6 million gamblers with each person spending an average of $ 182 per year.
The UK license is well known to be one of the most difficult to obtain. So far, Swifty is close to completing the compliance phase of the approval process and then will only have the security testing to undergo in the first quarter of 2022 which the company believes will be successful based on the security testing it has already been conducting.
Leading into the main market of the United States, Swifty has appointed a US attorney who specializes in Gambling Licenses with a very successful track record, to apply for licensing in every state. This will be a gradual rollout due to the vast scope of the project, however we would anticipate US licenses to be approved, state by state, throughout 2022.
Whilst the appropriate licensing is a laborious, tedious, and frustrating task, it is also a huge advantage to Swifty once all the licenses are approved. The IP value of the licenses is substantial and creates a high entry barrier for new players in the market. Swifty is excited about the value that each approved license could add to the company’s valuation. The company is fully compliant with all the important global compliance aspects and includes some of the most sophisticated software such as, KYC (Know Your Customer), AML (Anti Money laundering) and Risk Management software. The broad spectrum of the compliance requirements is very similar globally, with only a few localized rules that differ in each region.
The Swifty product will enter its beta testing phasing this quarter. The sign up for beta testing is closed and 150 people will test the product in various real-life scenarios using mock currency instead of real currency. The beta testing allows users to provide feedback on the real scenarios outside of the controlled testing environment. Beta testing will also allow users to familiarize themselves with the app and spread the word in preparation of the main launch.
Although the company will engage in a multi-million-dollar marketing campaign as the licenses are approved the company does anticipate a large amount of viral marketing to take place in the early stages.
The Swifty app will be available on the Apple App store for iOS and the Play store for Android and there will also be a web-based version available.
Exciting additional features that will be rolled out over coming quarters will be reality TV and lifestyle predictions for shows like Love Island and The Bachelor. Swifty is very proud to be implementing its innovative peer-to-peer betting module which will be released in due course. Through this, users will be able to create their own bets and side bets amongst friends and the app will lock the bet amount in their Swifty Wallet. This will allow the group to participate in the bet and the app will pay out to the winner on the closing of the bet. Swifty believes this feature will be revolutionary to the global social betting and prediction globally.
Swifty is engaging a leading sports agent to negotiate licensing arrangements that will allow Swifty to produce NFT player cards which will be bought and sold via the Swifty Wallet and may be awarded to users as a form of a loyalty reward. Swifty will be announcing much more information on this development soon.
With an extremely tight share structure, Swifty aims to deliver significant value to its loyal shareholder base. The company has a steady pipeline of products and enhancements and very exciting features to roll out to customers and shareholders.
Swifty Global CEO, James Gibbons, commented: “The skilled Swifty team has worked extremely hard at developing what is the most innovative app in the sports betting market and we are looking forward to starting the Beta testing. We are extremely excited for the first license to be issued which will bring the project, which has been many years in the making, to reality. Launching this product is the first phase of several products which we cannot wait to share with the market. Management has already started in the background with preparing Swifty for an eventual move to the big boards once the licensing is realized and the audit is complete.”

The Responsible Online Gaming Association (ROGA) has launched the “Know Your Play” campaign in partnership with EPIC Global Solutions, Kindbridge Behavioral Health, and the Responsible Gambling Council (RGC). This is a major initiative designed to provide college-aged students with detailed content focused on responsible gaming, mental health and well-being, and financial literacy.
“College students are learning to navigate newfound financial independence and equipping this age group with resources to make informed decisions that can build good financial habits will serve them throughout their lives, whether they engage in gaming or not. While previous programs have focused on student-athletes, our campaign intends to educate the broader student population about responsible gaming concepts that can help this age group set realistic expectations and see gaming as a form of entertainment, not as a way of making money,” ROGA Executive Director Dr. Jennifer Shatley said.
The campaign utilizes digital learning tools, resources, and videos available to all college-aged students at knowyourplay.org, even if they are not enrolled in a university. These resources will educate students on key responsible gaming concepts, including randomness, impulsiveness, and limit setting, while addressing myths like the illusion of control in sports betting. It will also focus on the role stress and mental health play in overall student wellbeing and provide practical tips for management. Additionally, extended resources will be piloted with select universities.
“EPIC has vast expertise and experience in creating programs that resonate with college-aged audiences and are delighted to partner with ROGA on a campaign that will provide critical education to college students across the country. By combining expert knowledge with personal stories, our program aims to foster a well-rounded understanding of financial literacy, decision-making, and risk-taking,” Teresa Fiore, SVP of Partnerships at EPIC Global Solutions, said.
The campaign will begin rolling out at college campuses over the next several weeks with in-person learning sessions and workshops in tandem with digital delivery tools for greater accessibility and reach, ensuring that the program effectively engages students across diverse campuses and demographics.
“College life presents unique pressures, from financial independence to academic performance, all of which can impact mental health. By fostering decision-making skills that bridge these areas, we’re helping students build resilience, manage stress, and develop healthy habits that will serve them well beyond their college years,” Kindbridge Group CEO Daniel Umfleet, said.
“College students face an increased risk of harm from gambling, making prevention education essential in protecting this important audience. RGC has a long history of creating prevention programs for young adults, and we are proud to partner with ROGA on this crucial initiative. This campaign will equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed decisions should they choose to gamble. By providing valuable information, digital tools, and resources, we are empowering young adults to approach gambling with a lower-risk mindset and reduce potential harm,” RGC CEO Sarah McCarthy said.
