Launch advances Btab’s strategy to activate a network of more than 300,000 businesses with AI-powered storefronts, product supply and commerce infrastructure

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA and NEW YORK, NY, Oct. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Btab Ecommerce Group, Inc. (OTC: BBTT) (“Btab” or the “Company”), a global ecommerce and technology company, today announced the launch of Btab.app, its AI-powered commerce platform designed to help entrepreneurs build branded online stores and sell supplier products without purchasing inventory upfront.

The launch represents a significant milestone in Btab’s strategy to connect manufacturers, suppliers and entrepreneurs through an integrated global commerce ecosystem. It builds on the Company’s previously announced AI Commerce Engine, Agentic AI initiative and Strategic Alliance Initiative, bringing its technology and product distribution strategy into a platform businesses can begin using today.

Turning AI into Business Opportunity

Btab.app combines AI-assisted store creation with access to supplier products and order-routing capabilities. Users can describe the type of store they want to create, personalize its appearance and establish their own branded retail presence. Merchants can offer catalogue products, their own products or a combination of both.

“AI should do more than help people find information. It should help them create opportunities and build businesses,” said Binson Lau, CEO of Btab. “With Btab.app, we are bringing AI, product supply and commerce infrastructure together to address the practical barriers that prevent many people from starting. Our goal is to make business ownership more accessible and give entrepreneurs the foundation to grow.”

The platform is free to open, with no monthly subscription fee. For catalogue products, Btab participates in the profit generated on each sale, aligning its commercial interests with those of participating merchants. Existing retailers can also connect their websites to Btab’s product catalogue through an API.

Activating an Established Global Network

Over the past decade, more than 300,000 small and medium businesses have used Btab’s network platforms to market and promote their products and services. The broader Btab Network attracts millions of visitors from more than 70 countries.

Through Btab.app, the Company intends to offer this established business community a pathway to expand from marketing and promotion into product sales supported by Btab’s commerce infrastructure.

The launch also supports Btab’s plans to onboard additional manufacturers and suppliers seeking broader distribution. By connecting product supply with independent storefronts, the Company aims to help manufacturers reach new customers while enabling merchants to expand their offerings without committing capital to inventory purchases upfront.

“We are not starting from zero,” Lau continued. “We have spent years developing our platforms, business community, supplier relationships and operational capabilities. Btab.app brings these foundations together into a commercial opportunity: helping manufacturers reach more customers and helping entrepreneurs access products they can sell under their own brands.”

A Foundation for Scalable Commerce

Btab views the launch as a foundation for continued expansion across its AI-powered commerce ecosystem. The Company plans to grow supplier participation, broaden product availability and introduce the platform to existing network businesses and new entrepreneurs.

Its longer-term strategy includes working with business communities and organizations that support self-employment, helping more people participate in the digital economy.

“Our mission is to become the world’s largest product supplier dedicated to small businesses,” Lau added. “Btab.app is an important step toward that ambition. The purpose behind it remains simple: empower entrepreneurs, create jobs and strengthen families.”

Entrepreneurs, retailers and suppliers can explore the platform at https://btab.app.

New offering extends WTW’s capabilities across the retirement lifecycle and positions the company to address growing demand for retirement planning and post-retirement financial solutions

The new offering being made available in the US market brings together WTW’s deep retirement and investment expertise with personalized advice and technology, extending the company’s capabilities across the retirement lifecycle from savings accumulation through the transition into retirement.

As defined contribution plans have become the primary source of retirement savings for millions of workers, demand is growing for solutions that provide individuals with the option to convert accumulated retirement-focused investments into sustainable retirement income.

Via Retirement positions WTW to address this underserved need while helping employers extend the value of their retirement programs.

“Via Retirement builds on WTW’s decades of success supporting individuals to improve their financial security,” said Julie Gebauer, President of Health, Wealth & Career at WTW. “By combining our retirement and investment expertise with personalized advice and intuitive technology, Via Retirement addresses the growing market need to support the transition from retirement savings to living in retirement.” 

Via Retirement brings together real-time scenario modeling², access to investment model portfolios, and personalized investment advice³ by investment adviser representatives, and a marketplace of annuity products⁴ supported by insurance brokers. Individuals can evaluate how decisions about retirement timing, goals, spending and income sources may affect their financial strategy and compare a range of retirement investment and income options in one place.

Via Retirement strengthens WTW’s proposition across the full retirement lifecycle, bringing together its capabilities with the goal of helping clients address evolving retirement needs and support better outcomes. Learn more here.
