According to a research report published by Ameri Research, the global legal cannabis market size is projected to be worth USD 63.5 billion by 2024. The factors driving the market growth include the trend of legalization, increasing use of cannabis products for medical purposes, high tax revenues, and rising investment in R&D. In the United States there are 28 states which have approved the use of cannabis for medical purposes, and more number of states are expected to follow suit over the next few years. Growing user base for recreational cannabis in states such as Colorado, California, Alaska, Massachusetts, Washington DC and other states is a key factor boosting the tax revenues. The report indicates that Colorado reported revenues exceeding 1.1 billion from the sale of cannabis products. Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE), OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp.

California's new recreational cannabis laws went into effect this month. New Frontier Data CEO, Giadha Aguirre de Carcer explained, "Significant changes are already underway in California for medical cannabis and adult use laws, which we see will have major implications for the cannabis industry, including ecommerce and delivery services in the state… As the largest state in the country - and the largest potential market for cannabis products - the implications for the growth of the industry because of California's adult use market cannot be overstated."

Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE) announced yesterday that, "its majority owned subsidiary, MoneyTrac Technology, Inc. ("MTRAC" "MoneyTrac", the "Company") has executed a Sales and Marketing Management Agreement with High Grade Management Group, Inc.

This new line of products delivers innovative and high-quality vape pens, chargers, and oils to consumers and retailers in one of the fastest growing market spaces.

In addition to providing MTRAC with a direct source of revenue through the retainer they will receive for sales and marketing services, the agreement also serves as reinforcement of MTRAC's expanding business development service arm which is directed towards the growing number of businesses in the underserved cannabis industry."

Said MTRAC CEO, Vanessa Luna: "This Agreement is an excellent opportunity for MoneyTrac to play a strategic role in developing effective brand awareness for HGMG's Apple Vapes product line. The support and expertise that I anticipate our business development team will be able to lend to HGMG will undoubtedly provide them with the invaluable tools and resources necessary to take full advantage of a rapidly expanding marketplace."

Said HGMG CEO, Mark Glover: "As we look to capitalize on the multi-million-dollar vape industry, securing a partnership like this with MoneyTrac is absolutely vital in making sure we make a significant splash in this competitive market space as well as ensure that Apple Vapes is positioned to become a consistent revenue powerhouse by delivering the most innovative and top quality vape products to consumers and retailers in the industry."
