Company

Company overview

Almost all of FingerMotion’s revenue comes from telecommunications services in China. JiuGe Technology buys mobile airtime and data packages in bulk and distributes them through businesses and digital platforms; telecom operators pay rebates for processing payments and recharges. Through Beijing Technology, it also buys messaging capacity in bulk and sells businesses access to a platform for sending and tracking text and multimedia messages. A separate online sales arrangement with China Unicom Yunnan pays FingerMotion a share of transactions for telecom-related products and services.

The business relies heavily on China Mobile and China Unicom, whose contracts supply a substantial share of revenue. Recharge activity also depends on how much cash FingerMotion can deposit with operators in advance to access airtime and data. Its Chinese telecom services require operating licenses held by local entities. Much of the business runs through JiuGe Technology under contracts that give FingerMotion control and economic benefits rather than direct ownership—the variable interest entity, or VIE, structure. Chinese dividend and foreign-exchange rules restrict payments from these operations to the holding company.

FingerMotion is also expanding smaller technology businesses. Sapientus sells data analysis to insurers and financial-services firms for tasks such as assessing risk and understanding customers. This is a strategic focus, but enterprise purchasing, system integration and data-governance requirements make sales cycles long.

FingerMotion’s results depend on its phone-recharge arrangements with China Mobile and China Unicom and enough working capital to fund telecom transaction volumes, rather than on the supplied software peers.
