**PART I**

**Forward Looking Statements**

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) regarding the Company and its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates", "could", "may", "should", "will", "would", and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements in this report. Additionally, statements concerning future matters such as the development of new services, technology enhancements, purchases of equipment, credit arrangements, possible changes in legislation and other statements regarding matters that are not historical are forward-looking statements.

Although forward-looking statements in this Annual Report reflect the good faith judgment of the Company's management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by the Company. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, contingencies and uncertainties, and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from results and outcomes discussed in this Annual Report. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company can give no assurance that its plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. For a more complete discussion of these risk factors, see Item 1A, "Risk Factors".

For example, the Company's ability to maintain a positive cash flow and to become profitable may be adversely affected as a result of a number of factors that could thwart its efforts. These factors include the Company's inability to successfully implement the Company's business and revenue model, higher costs than anticipated, the Company's inability to sell its products and services to a sufficient number of customers, the introduction of competing products by others, the Company's inability to complete development of its core products, the failure of the Company's operating systems, and the Company's inability to increase its revenues as rapidly as anticipated. If the Company is not profitable in the future, it will not be able to continue its business operations.

Except as required by applicable laws, we do not intend to publish updates or revisions of any forward-looking statements we make to reflect new information, future events or otherwise. Readers are urged to review carefully and to consider the various disclosures made by the Company in this Annual Report, which attempts to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

**Item 1. Business**

**Overview**

PAID, Inc. (the "Company" or "PAID") was incorporated in Delaware on August 9, 1995. The Company has multiple web addresses, including www.paid.com, which offers updated information on various aspects of our operations and www.shiptime.com which showcases our online label generation software. The information contained in the Company's website should not be deemed to be a part of this Annual Report.

**Our Business**

*ShipTime Inc.* ShipTime's platform provides its members with the ability to quote, process, generate labels, track and dispatch shipments while getting preferred rates on packages and skidded less than truckload ("LTL") freight shipments throughout North America and around the world. The application provides customers with a choice of today's leading couriers and freight carriers, all with discounted pricing allowing members to save on every shipment. In addition to these features, ShipTime also provides what it refers to as "Heroic Multilingual Customer Support." In this capacity, ShipTime acts as an advocate on behalf of its clients in resolving matters concerning orders and shipping to enhance customer experiences. With an increasing focus and service offering for e-commerce merchants; which include online shopping carts, inventory management, payment services, client prospecting and retention software, ShipTime can help merchants worldwide grow and scale their businesses. ShipTime generates monthly revenue through transactions and "software as a service" (SAAS) offerings. We actively sell directly to small and medium businesses and through long standing partnerships with selected associations throughout Canada and we currently serve in excess of 109,300 members across the world.

------

*PAID, Inc.* includes the PaidPayment, PaidWeb, PaidCart and PaidShipping products that offers a robust platform enabling small and medium businesses to launch websites via our catalog of templates. Our platform includes a wide array of features such as mobile editing, search engine optimization, collaboration tools, pre-designed templates, and can be integrated with multiple platforms. PaidCart serves as a comprehensive solution for small and medium businesses looking to expand their online sales through multiple channels. It provides a centralized system to manage sales across various platforms, with additional functionalities for currency and language management, promotional sales, and abandoned cart recovery. PaidPayments and PaidShipping seamlessly interface with PaidCart to facilitate the checkout and shipping processes. PaidPayments provides businesses with a secure and efficient way to conduct online transactions including a virtual terminal, invoicing capability, subscriptions processing, checkout pages, and a point-of-sale system with support for USD, CAD, and EUR currencies. PaidShipping delivers a solution to quote, process, generate labels, dispatch and track courier and LTL shipments all from a single interface. We offer savings through partnerships with leading carriers. It includes a multi-courier comparison tool, integrations with eCommerce platforms and branded tracking.

**Business Strategy**

The Company's focus in 2024 was to effectively execute the integration of Paid Inc. and ShipTime while ensuring that our vision ("*To provide a comprehensive e-commerce platform for small to medium enterprises*"*)* continued to move toward this goal by the adding fundamental tools for our members to compete in today's on-line marketplace.

While the ShipTime portion of our business is our key revenue driver; our strategy in 2025 was to continue to build out the foundation of the Paid platform of e-commerce products while driving our core business forward. By continuing to offer small-to-medium enterprises meaningful solutions and an integrated infrastructure platform we can enhance the value proposition to both our channel partners and our growing customer base allowing us to cost effectively break into new markets.

In order to support the Company's members via our strategic build-out of e-commerce services, our Heroic Support™ team remains focused on a Support and Customer Success mindset. Our Sales and Account Management Teams will be engaging with our prospects and members to provide guidance and support in utilizing Paid platform tools and services. Paid will provide agencies, associations and partners with the infrastructure to help small to medium businesses grow and be more effective with their digital offerings. We continue to focus on clients in both the United States and Canada.

As ShipTime has been cash flow positive we are able to take advantage of the excess cash with long- and short-term investments. During 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with respect to a secured $1.875 million convertible note made by Embolx, Inc., a California corporation. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company loaned USD $1.5 million to Embolx. The Note was purchased at a 20% ($375,000) original issue discount and was subject to a 9-month maturity, after which, if unpaid, would then carry a 20% interest rate. The Company has the option to convert the note into shares of common stock of Embolx. Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company had the right to purchase additional shares on the same terms. An agreement to extend the Note in 2024 was authorized which included an additional $500,000 investment with a 25% original issue discount. In 2025 the Company entered into a Forbearance and Loan Modification Agreement with Embolx which extends the note until August 2026. Additionally, Management feels that the assets of Embolx are sufficient to satisfy the obligation of the note receivable. Management continues to evaluate the financial status of Embolx and the potential sales of their business.

The business strategy described above is intended to expand our markets, increase revenue per member while enhancing our opportunities in the online ecommerce market. There are always a variety of factors that may impact our plans and inhibit our success. See "Risk Factors" included in Item 1A. Therefore, we have no guarantees and can provide no assurances that our plans will be successful.

**Marketing and Sales**

The Company continues to successfully nurture and grow relationships with our channel partners and has added new relationships that are global in scope. While much of the growth and success in 2025 was the result of the cooperative efforts of ShipTime sales staff, our channel partners and our marketing strategies play a key role in the Company's growth. Additions to our management team have allowed us to continue to pursue opportunities with channel partners.

The Company will continue to market PAID and ShipTime throughout 2026 and beyond. Cross-selling efforts will be enhanced, and new features are being added to our Paid and ShipTime platforms. Based on experience and feedback with existing partnerships that promote our product lines, the Company believes that creating additional partnerships in the United States and beyond North America is an effective marketing tool to promote and encourage new registrations. Additional resources and marketing initiatives will be utilized to increase onboarding and convert our members into active long-time users of the Company's services in order to accelerate our growth.

------

**Revenue Sources**

In 2025, our revenues were primarily derived from our label generation services. This portion of our business has maintained consistent growth since our merger with ShipTime in 2016. In addition to the label generation services, we continue to focus on launching our new e-commerce platforms and adding additional carriers and services to our product offerings. See "Risk Factors" included in Item 1A. We have no guarantees and can provide no assurances that our plans will be successful.

**Competition**

Technology within the logistics industry is highly competitive and we have focused a variety of differentiators including our Heroic Support™ to elevate our services beyond those of our competition. Our product offerings may also be available from other companies in our industry, and we continue to emphasize value and quality customer support. The ShipTime trademark has been registered in both Canada and the United States.

We also utilize free open-source technology in certain areas. Unlike proprietary software, open-source software has publicly available source code and can be copied, modified and distributed with minimal restrictions. We use open-source software and technology as well to support the growing social and viral opportunities on the internet. By using 'best-of-breed' products and tools we can maximize our clients' opportunities while minimizing our costs, which we are able to pass on to our customers.

**Research and Development**

Over the past years, the Company has made progress developing new integrations with e-commerce shopping cart platforms. The Company has recently brought on a new Chief Technology Officer in addition to several new developers who are focused on the growth of the PAID brand and ShipTime products and their technologies. Our technology roadmap has been projected from 2025 through the 2027 calendar year and we have enhancements scheduled for all aspects of our businesses. Our strategy includes continuous user enhancements on our existing platforms, new websites, updates to our e-commerce shopping cart solution, enhancements to our merchant payment processing platform, shipping calculator enhancements and many additional features and upgrades to our online shopping and shipping tools.

**Employees**

As of March 31, 2026, the Company currently has twenty-nine full time equivalent employees and one part-time employee. We have no collective bargaining agreements and consider the relationship with our employees to be heroic.

**Government Regulation**

We are not currently subject to direct federal, state or local regulations, and laws or regulations applicable to access or commerce on the Internet, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally. However, due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet and other online services, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet or other online services covering issues such as user privacy, freedom of expression, pricing, content and quality of products and services, taxation, advertising, intellectual property rights and information security.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

*You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before deciding to invest in shares of our common stock. If any of the following risks or uncertainties actually occur, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results would likely suffer. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.*

**Risks Relating to the Company**

***We have experienced operating losses.***

Our business and prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties that are inherent in our business. The risks include:

● our ability to anticipate and adapt to a developing market;

● our ability to market, license and enforce our shipping calculator, payment processing platform, shopping cart and other e-commerce tools;

● development of equal or superior Internet portals, shipping calculators and related services by competitors; and

● our ability to maintain competitive pricing with our carriers

------

To address these risks, we must, among other things, successfully market our e-commerce products, our merchant payment platform and shipping label generation services, continue to develop new relationships with carriers, e-commerce service providers, maintain our customer base, attract significant numbers of new customers, respond to competitive developments, and continue to develop and upgrade our technologies. We cannot offer any assurances that we will be successful in addressing these risks.

The Company has reported substantial operating losses since 1999. There can be no assurance that we will be profitable in the future.

***Our capital is limited, and we may need additional financing to continue operations.***

We require substantial working capital to fund our business. If we are unable to obtain additional financing in the amounts desired and on acceptable terms, or at all, or issue stock, we could be required to significantly reduce the scope of our expenditures, which impact our business potential and the market price of our common stock. By raising additional funds by issuing equity securities, our shareholders will be further diluted. Based on our cash position as of December 31, 2025, we believe we have sufficient capital to fund our anticipated operating expenses over the next 12 months.

***We are unable to guarantee that the marketplace will accept our software products.***

The software markets are characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changes in customer demands and evolving industry standards. Our software products could be rendered obsolete if products based on new technologies are introduced or new industry standards emerge, or if we do not obtain adequate intellectual property protection. We are unable to provide any assurances that the marketplace will accept our software products and services, or that we will be able to provide these products and services at a profit.

***Our operating results are unpredictable.***

You should not rely on the results for any period as an indication of future performance. Our operating results and rate of growth are unpredictable and are expected to fluctuate in the future due to several additional factors, many of which are outside our control. These factors beyond our control include:

● our ability to significantly increase our customer base and traffic to our websites, maintain gross margins, and maintain customer satisfaction;

● our ability to market and sell our software products;

● consumer confidence in encrypted transactions in the internet environment;

● the announcement or introduction of new types of services or products by our competitors;

● technical difficulties with respect to customer use of our technologies;

● governmental regulation by federal or local governments; and

● general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the internet and e-commerce.

As a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, we may from time to time make certain service, marketing or supply decisions or acquisitions that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In 2025, our revenues were derived from our shipping coordination, shipping label generation services, and eCommerce solutions.

***The successful operation of our business depends upon the supply of critical technology elements from other third parties, including our internet service provider and technology licensors.***

Our operations depend on a number of third parties for internet/telecom access, delivery services, and software services. We have limited control over these third parties and no long-term relationships with many of them. We rely on an internet service provider to connect our websites to the internet. From time to time, we have experienced temporary interruptions in our website's connection and also our telecommunications access. The Company has migrated our hosted services to a cloud based offsite location in order to mitigate any potential outages. We license technology and related databases from third parties for certain elements of our property. Furthermore, we are dependent on hardware suppliers for prompt delivery, installation, and service of servers and other equipment to deliver our products and services. Our internally developed software depends on the operating system, database and server software that was developed and produced by and licensed from third parties. We have discovered from time-to-time errors and defects in the software from these third parties and, in part, rely on these third parties to correct these errors and defects in a timely manner. Any errors, failures, interruptions, or delays experienced in connection with these third-party technologies and information services could negatively impact on our relationship with users and adversely affect our brand and our business and could expose us to liabilities to third parties.

------

***Our failure to manage growth could place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources.***

Growth places a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources, and has placed significant demands on our management, which currently include two executive officers, two senior executives including a president and chief technical officer, a director of marketing, a vice president of sales and a vice president of finance. In order to manage growth, we will be required to continue to expand existing operations, particularly with respect to enhanced product offerings, customer service and development, to improve existing and implement new operational, financial systems, procedures and controls. In 2025, the Company added several consultants to assist with development of Paid and ShipTime platforms and operational needs and will continue to add technical and marketing personnel.

We have experienced some strain on our resources because of:

● the need to manage relationships with various technology licensors, other websites and services, and other third parties;

● pressures for the continued development of our core of software products; and

● the need for additional operational, finance, development, and technology personnel.

Difficulties we may encounter in dealing successfully with the above risks could seriously harm our operations. We cannot offer any assurance that our current personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our future operations or that management will be able to identify, hire, train, retain, motivate and manage the required personnel.

***Our Company's success still depends upon the continued services of its current management and other relationships.***

We are substantially dependent on the continued services of our key personnel, W. Austin Lewis, IV and David Scott. Mr. Lewis has specialized knowledge and skills with respect to our Company and our operations and relationships with our channel partners. As a result, if Mr. Lewis were to leave our Company, we could face some difficulties in hiring qualified successors. Mr. Scott has unique knowledge regarding the technology of the Company and its integrations to other third-party software. If Mr. Scott were to leave the Company, we could face some setbacks in development or possible outages. We do not maintain any key person life insurance.

***Our Company's success will depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel.***

We believe that our future success will depend upon our ability to identify, attract, hire, train, motivate and retain other highly skilled managerial, accounting, technical consulting, marketing and customer service personnel. The Company has been awarded a "Great Place to Work" certification in Canada. We have added six new employees with minimal turnover in the last year. We cannot offer assurances that we will be successful in attracting, assimilating or retaining the necessary personnel, and failure to do so could have an adverse effect on our business.

***Our success depends upon market awareness of our brand.***

Development and awareness of our Company will depend largely on our success in increasing our customer base, specifically in the United States. To attract and retain customers and to promote and maintain our Company in response to competitive pressures, we may find it necessary to increase our sales, marketing and advertising budgets and otherwise to increase substantially our financial commitment to creating and maintaining brand loyalty among consumers. We will need to continue to devote substantial financial and other resources to increase and maintain the awareness of our online brands among website users, advertisers, affiliate relationships, and e-commerce entities that we have advertising relationships with through:

● web advertising, marketing, and social media;

● traditional media advertising campaigns;

● trade shows and exhibitions; and

● Canadian seller resources.

Our results of operations could be seriously harmed if our investment of financial and other resources, in an attempt to achieve or maintain a leading position in internet commerce or to promote and maintain our brand, does not generate a corresponding increase in net revenue, or if the expense of developing and promoting our online brands becomes excessive.

***System failures could result in interruptions in our service, which could harm our business.***

A key element of our strategy is to generate a high volume of traffic to and use of, our products. Accordingly, satisfactory performance, reliability and availability of the shipping calculations, transaction processing systems and network infrastructure are critical to our operating results, as well as our reputation and our ability to attract and retain customers and maintain adequate customer service levels.

------

We periodically have experienced minor systems interruptions, including internet disruptions. Some of the interruptions are due to upgrading our technology. During these upgrades, the outages generally lasted less than an hour. Any systems interruptions, including internet disruptions, which result in the unavailability of our services, could harm our business. In addition to placing increased burdens on our engineering staff, these outages create a large number of user questions and complaints that need to be responded to by our personnel. We cannot offer assurances that:

● We will be able to accurately project the rate or timing of increases if any, in the use of our services;

Any disruption in access to our websites and services or any systems failures could significantly reduce consumer demand for our services, diminish the level of traffic to our products, impair our reputation and reduce our e-commerce and advertising revenues.

***We currently identify vulnerabilities with our communications hardware and computer hardware.***

Our main servers are cloud-based and are located within two separate third party hosting facilities. The virtual servers are spread across North America. ShipTime maintains several non-critical servers which are located in Canada with daily operations conducted in Oakville, Ontario. Neither our Massachusetts facilities nor our Canadian facilities are protected from flood, power loss, telecommunication failure, break-in and similar events however the equipment located at these offices is not considered critical to our service offerings.

As with all servers, our cloud-based servers are also vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins, attempts by third parties to deliberately exceed the capacity of our systems and similar disruptive problems. Computer viruses, break-ins or other problems caused by third parties could lead to interruptions, delays, loss of data or cessation in service to users of our services and products and could seriously harm our business. Our implementation of redundancies minimizes the risk of loss though there are no guarantees.

***There are certain provisions of Delaware law that could have anti-takeover effects.***

Certain provisions of Delaware law and our Certificate of Incorporation, and Bylaws could make an acquisition of our Company by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise, and the removal of our incumbent officers and directors more difficult. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Our Bylaws include advance notice requirements for the submission by stockholders of nominations for election to the Board of Directors and for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at a meeting.

We are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), which will prohibit us from engaging in a "business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Generally, a "business combination" includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Generally, an "interested stockholder" is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own) 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock. The existence of this provision would be expected to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the Board of Directors, including discouraging attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders. Section 203 could adversely affect the ability of stockholders to benefit from certain transactions, which are opposed by the Board or by stockholders owning 15% of our common stock, even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

***Our success is dependent in part on our ability to obtain and maintain proprietary protection for our technologies and processes.***

Our most important intellectual property relates to the software for our shipping calculator, label generation and eCommerce solutions. We do not have any patents or patent applications for our designs or innovations, except for our patent with respect to our online auction shipping and tax calculator. We may not be able to obtain copyright, patent or other protection for our proprietary technologies or for the processes developed by our employees. Legal standards relating to intellectual property rights in computer software are still developing and this area of the law is evolving with new technologies. Our intellectual property rights do not guarantee any competitive advantage and may not sufficiently protect us against competitors with similar technology.

------

As part of our confidentiality procedures, we generally enter into agreements with our employees and consultants and limit access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other proprietary information. We cannot offer assurances that the steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our technology or that agreements entered into for that purpose will be enforceable. Notwithstanding the precautions we have taken, it might be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our software or other proprietary information without authorization or to develop similar software independently. Policing unauthorized use of our technology is difficult, particularly because the global nature of the internet makes it difficult to control the ultimate destination or security of software or other data transmitted. The laws of other countries may afford our Company little or no effective protection of its intellectual property. Because our success in part relies upon our technologies, if proper protection is not available or can be circumvented, our business may suffer.

***Intellectual property infringement claims would harm our business.***

We may in the future receive notices from third parties claiming infringement by our software or other aspects of our business. Any future claim, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of resources, including the attention of management, and require us to enter into licensing agreements, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. In the future, we may also need to file lawsuits to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. This litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***Our success is dependent on licensed technologies.***

We rely on a variety of technologies that we license from third parties. We also rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from a third party through an online user agreement to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of confidential information.

We cannot make any assurances that these third-party technology licenses will continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms. Although no single software vendor licensor provides us with irreplaceable software, the termination of a license and the need to obtain and install new software on our systems would interrupt our operations. Our inability to maintain or obtain upgrades to any of these technology licenses could result in delays in completing our proprietary software enhancements and new developments until equivalent technology could be identified, licensed or developed and integrated. These delays would materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***We may be exposed to liability for content retrieved from our websites.***

Our exposure to liability from providing content on the internet is currently uncertain. Due to third party use of information and content downloaded from our websites, we may be subject to claims relating to:

● the content and publication of various materials based on defamation, libel, negligence, personal injury and other legal theories;

● copyright, trademark or patent infringement and wrongful action due to the actions of third parties; and

● other theories based on the nature and content of online materials made available through our websites.

Our exposure to any related liability could result in us incurring significant costs and could drain our financial and other resources. We do not maintain insurance specifically covering these claims. Liability or alleged liability could further harm our business by diverting the attention and resources of our management and by damaging our reputation in our industry and with our customers.

***The Company may be exposed to potential risks relating to our significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting.***

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX 404"), the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company's internal control over financial reporting in their annual reports, including Form 10-K. We have identified deficiencies and material weaknesses in our internal controls and have taken steps to remediate them as cost-effectively as possible. Based on these deficiencies and material weaknesses, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our ability to obtain equity or debt financing could suffer.

------

**Risks Associated With Our Industry**

***The market for online services is intensely competitive with low barriers to entry.***

The market for internet products and services is very competitive. Barriers to entry are relatively low, and current and new competitors can launch new sites at relatively low costs using commercially available software. We currently or potentially compete with a variety of other companies depending on the type of services offered to customers. These competitors include a number of indirect competitors that specialize in e-commerce shipping solutions or derive a substantial portion of their revenue from e-commerce products and those that specialize in brewery management solutions.

It is possible that new competitors or alliances may emerge and rapidly acquire market share. Increased competition is likely to result in reduced operating margins, loss of market share and a diminished brand recognition, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Many of our current and potential competitors have greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than the Company. As a result, these competitors may be able to provide services on more favorable terms than we can, and they may be able to respond more quickly to changes in customer preferences or to devote greater resources to the development of their products than the Company.

***We may be adversely affected by the deterioration in economic conditions, which could affect consumer and corporate spending and our ability to raise capital, and, therefore, significantly adversely impact our operating results.***

The impact of slowdowns on our business is difficult to predict, but they may result in reductions in new client registrations and our ability to generate revenue. The risks associated with our businesses may become more acute in periods of a slowing economy or a recession, which may be accompanied by a decrease in e-commerce business. Instability in the financial markets as a result of recession or otherwise, as well as insufficient financial sector liquidity, also could affect the cost of capital and energy suppliers and our ability to raise capital.

Our business depends on discretionary consumer and corporate spending. Many factors related to corporate spending and discretionary consumer spending, including economic conditions affecting disposable consumer income such as employment, fuel prices, interest and tax rates and inflation, can significantly impact our operating results. Business conditions, as well as various industry conditions, including corporate marketing and promotional spending, can also significantly impact our operating results. Negative factors such as challenging economic conditions, public concerns over terrorism and security incidents, particularly when combined, can impact corporate and consumer spending and one negative factor can impact our results more than another. There can be no assurance that consumer and corporate spending will not be adversely impacted by economic conditions, thereby possibly impacting our operating results and growth.

***Security breaches and credit card fraud could harm our business.***

We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from a third party through an online user agreement to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of confidential information. We believe that a significant barrier to e-commerce and communications is the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks. We cannot give assurance that advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other events or developments will not result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms we use to protect customer transaction data. If this compromise of our security were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. A party who is able to circumvent our security measures and those of our third-party providers could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our operations. To the extent that the activities of our Company or third-party contractors involve the storage and transmission of proprietary information. Security breaches could expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by these breaches. We cannot offer assurances that our security measures will prevent security breaches or that failure to prevent these security breaches will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

***Our industry may be exposed to increased government regulation.***

Our Company is not currently subject to direct regulation by any government agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally, and laws or regulations directly applicable to access to, or commerce on, the internet. Today there are relatively few laws specifically directed towards online services, other than to protect user privacy or minors. However, due to the increasing popularity and use of the internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the internet, covering issues such as user privacy, freedom of expression, pricing, content and quality of products and services, fraud, taxation, advertising, intellectual property rights and information security. As the Company expands its products, services and geographical scope, it may face new regulatory requirements. Compliance with additional regulation could hinder our growth or prove to be prohibitively expensive.

The applicability to the internet of existing laws in various jurisdictions governing issues such as property ownership, sales tax, libel and personal privacy is uncertain and may take time to resolve. In addition, because our service is available over the internet in multiple states, and we sell to numerous consumers resident in these states, these jurisdictions may claim that we are required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in each state. Our failure to qualify as a foreign corporation in a jurisdiction where it is required to do so could subject our Company to taxes and penalties for the failure to qualify. Any new legislation or regulation, or the application of laws or regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

------

***Other Risks***

In February 2025 United Sates President ordered a 25% tariff on goods from Canada, Mexico and China which went into effect on March 4, 2025. The order was entered into under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). This decision impacted many small businesses shipping goods to the United States from Canada impacting approximately 10% of our label generation customer revenues. From March to August of 2025 subsequent decisions were made regarding tariffs on automobiles, auto parts, goods made of aluminum or steel, overlapping tariffs and goods shipped under the Canada, United States Mexico Agreement. Ultimately, on August 29, 2025, the Unites States ordered the lifting of the $800 de minimis exemption resulting in duty and tax impacts for all personal shipments in addition to small businesses. The constant and ongoing changes resulting in a significant number of duty and tax charges are subject to disputes with various government agencies. There are also questions on the legality of the IEEPA tariff change that could be important to the resolution of the outstanding disputes. On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court ruled the IEEPA does not grant the President the authority to impose tariffs which may lead to a refund of billions of US dollars to small business across globe. We cannot estimate a possible impact on our business or the future of international revenue however the ongoing changes and decisions but the United States President can result in an impact on our financial condition.

**Risks Associated with our Common Stock**

***Our stock price has been and may continue to be very volatile.***

The market price of the shares of our common stock has been, and is likely to be, highly volatile. During the year ended December 31, 2025 our stock price as quoted on the OTC Pink operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc., on the OTCPINK has ranged from a high of $4.80 per share to a low of $2.25 per share. The variance in our share price makes it difficult to forecast with any certainty the stock price at which you may be able to buy or sell your shares of our common stock. The market price for our stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors that are out of our control such as:

● actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations;

● announcements of new products, services or technological innovations by our competitors;

● short selling our common stock and stock price manipulation;

● merger, split or issuance;

● developments in internet regulation; and

● general conditions and trends on the internet and e-commerce industries.

The trading prices of many technologies companies' stock have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market factors may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions or interest rate fluctuations, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Any negative change in the public's perception of the prospects of Internet or e-commerce companies could depress our stock price regardless of our results.

***"Penny stock***" ***regulations may impose certain restrictions on marketability of securities.***

The SEC adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our common stock may be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of these securities and have received the purchaser's prior written consent to the transaction.

Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the "penny stock" rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability to sell our common stock in the secondary market.

------

***The market for our Company's securities is limited and may not provide adequate liquidity.***

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCPINK, a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in over-the-counter equity securities. As a result, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations as to the price of, our securities than if the securities were traded on the Nasdaq Stock market, or another national exchange. There are a limited number of active market makers of our common stock. In order to trade shares of our common stock you must use one of these market makers unless you trade your shares in a private transaction. In the year ended December 31, 2025 the actual daily trading volume ranged from a low of 0 shares of common stock to a high of 11,800 shares of common stock. Selling our shares can be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares are bought and sold and news media coverage about us is limited. These factors result in a limited trading market for our common stock and therefore holders of our Company's stock may be unable to sell shares purchased should they desire to do so.

**Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments**

None.

**Item 1C. Cybersecurity**

**Disclosure of Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance Regarding Cybersecurity Risks**

Our Board of Directors engages in regular discussions to address our Company's principal risks, including those related to cybersecurity, ensuring comprehensive management and oversight. In alignment with this commitment, our cybersecurity leadership, comprising the Chief Operating Officer, DevOps Resource Manager of Security, Senior Systems Architect, DevOps Engineer, and Senior Technical Project Manager, forms a core committee dedicated to the review and strategic planning of our cybersecurity initiatives. This team's collaborative efforts are instrumental in steering our Company's approach to identifying, evaluating, and mitigating cybersecurity risks.

**Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy**

The designated committee oversees our cybersecurity risk assessment and mitigation strategies through various means, including but not limited to:

● Conducting internal evaluations and leveraging technological tools to fortify our cybersecurity posture.

● Implementing rigorous cybersecurity training for all employees to heighten awareness and preparedness against cyber threats.

● Ensuring the robustness of our cyber defenses with comprehensive antivirus solutions and adherence to cybersecurity best practices.

● Our reliance on third-party service providers, such as Google Cloud for server hosting and Stripe for payment processing, Twilio for two-factor authentication, incorporates a level of inherited security measures. Nonetheless, our commitment extends to continuously assessing and enhancing our cybersecurity frameworks to align with evolving industry standards and best practices.

**Governance**

Our Board is advised of key cybersecurity matters through high-level briefings, ensuring strategic alignment and informed oversight of our cybersecurity endeavors. The Company's officers, along with the executive team, play a pivotal role in the dynamic landscape of cybersecurity risk management. This committee is not only responsible for the ongoing assessment and management of cybersecurity risks but also ensures that strategic cybersecurity initiatives are integrated within the broader operational framework of our Company.

**Incident Response and Readiness**

Although our Company has not experienced cybersecurity incidents, we maintain a proactive stance through the implementation of an Incident Response Plan. This plan encompasses detailed procedures for addressing potential cybersecurity incidents, including scenario-based drills to test our preparedness. The escalation processes within the plan ensure swift communication to the executive leadership and, if necessary, to the Board of Directors, facilitating an agile and informed response to emerging cybersecurity threats.

------

**Engagement with Third Parties**

Our engagement with third-party service providers incorporates a thorough consideration of cybersecurity risks. Through our diligent evaluation process, we ensure that our partners adhere to stringent cybersecurity standards, safeguarding our data and systems against potential threats. This collaborative approach towards cybersecurity underscores our commitment to maintaining a secure operational environment for our stakeholders.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

**Item 2. Properties**

The Company's primary offices are located at 700 Dorval Drive, Oakville, Ontario with a principal executive office at P.O. Box 17 Southborough, Massachusetts, pursuant to a lease agreement for the Oakville property which expires in August 2028.

**Item 3. Legal Proceedings**

From time to time we may be a party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Our management is not aware of any litigation outstanding, threatened or pending as of the date hereof by or against us or our properties which we believe would be material to our financial condition or results of operations, except with respect to a dispute related to its non-renewal of the employment agreement with Mr. Allan Pratt, the Company's former President and CEO, in which Mr. Pratt appears to be treating it as a termination which would trigger a two-year severance payment in addition to claims of an unpaid bonus. Around the same time that Mr. Pratt's employment term expired, the Company's Board of Directors voted to reduce the board from five to three, and Mr. Pratt and Mr. Austin Lewis, CFO, automatically rolled off from the Board of Directors. More than a year later, in 2021, Mr. Pratt filed a claim in Delaware courts to contest that decision and, in November 2023 this claim was dismissed. In July 2022, Mr. Pratt amended the complaint to dispute the proper authorization of a stock bonus that was awarded to the Company's CEO in March 2021. The trial was held before the Delaware court on December 5-6, 2024. Post-trial briefing in the Delaware action was completed on March 21, 2025, followed by a post-trial hearing on May 14, 2025.

**Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosure**

Not applicable.

**PART II**

**Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities**

Our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, is presently quoted on the OTC Pink operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc., on the OTCPINK under the symbol "PAYD".

The following table sets forth the high and low bid information for our common stock as reported by OTCPINK for the eight quarters ended December 31, 2025. The quotations from the OTCPINK reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down, or commission and may not represent actual transactions.

As of March 31, 2026, there were approximately 871 holders of record of our common stock. Because many of the shares are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, the Company is unable to estimate the total number of individual stockholders represented by these holders of record.

We have not previously paid cash dividends on our common stock, and intend to utilize current resources to operate the business; thus, it is not anticipated that cash dividends will be paid on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

------

**Exchangeable Shares**

Holders of our subsidiary's exchangeable shares have the same dividend and distribution rights as holders of Company shares, and if Company shares are subdivided or in the event of a Company stock dividend, the exchangeable shares will be equally subdivided, as exchangeable shares are intended to be economically the same as shares of common or preferred stock of the Company. The Company will have a "liquidation call right" in the event of proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of ShipTime Canada Inc. Absent prior events, the Company could have elected to redeem the exchangeable shares on the fifth anniversary for shares of the Company's preferred stock and common stock. By agreement, exchangeable shares also may be purchased by ShipTime Canada Inc. for cancellation. The Company also has a right to call the shares in the event of a change in the applicable laws.

The holders of exchangeable shares have an "automatic exchange right" in the event of any bankruptcy or insolvency or in general, related proceedings, of ShipTime Canada Inc. or the Company. The exchangeable shares would at such time be converted automatically into that number of shares of common stock and preferred stock of the Company at the agreed upon conversion ratio. Moreover, Callco will have an overriding call right to purchase some or all of the exchangeable shares. This mechanism will be triggered with the automatic exchange right and is necessary to comply with Canadian tax laws. The exercise of this call right does not alter the outcome of the exchangeable share transaction.

Under a Support Agreement, the Company is required to treat holders of Exchangeable Shares substantially similar, or economically equivalent, to holders of Company stock. As such, under the Support Agreement, the Company cannot declare or pay any dividend or other distribution on Company stock unless ShipTime Inc. simultaneously declares or pays the dividend or distribution on the Exchangeable Shares and has sufficient money or other assets to meet these requirements. In turn, ShipTime Inc. would effect a corresponding dividend or distribution of its securities related to the Exchangeable Shares. The Company also undertakes to advise ShipTime Inc. of the declaration of dividend or distribution, among other similar events, and to cooperate with it to effect the dividend or distribution as of the same record and effective date. The Company is also required in this case to segregate funds to pay for the dividend, and to reserve sufficient number of shares to permit the exchange of the Exchangeable Shares into the required number of Company shares of common stock and preferred stock. The Support Agreement is also binding on any successor to the Company and with respect to any successor transaction.

See Note 10, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in Part IV, Item 15, of this Annual Report, for a discussion of the material features of the stock options, warrants and related stock plans.

**Item. 6 Reserved**

**Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

**Forward Looking Statements**

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) regarding the Company and its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates", "could", "may", "should", "will", "would", and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements in this report. Additionally, statements concerning future matters such as the development of new services, technology enhancements, purchase of equipment, credit arrangements, possible changes in legislation and other statements regarding matters that are not historical are forward-looking statements.

------

Although forward-looking statements in this Annual Report reflect the good faith judgment of the Company's management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by the Company. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, contingencies and uncertainties, and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in this report. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company can give no assurance that its plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. For a more complete discussion of these risk factors, see Item 1A, "Risk Factors."

For example, the Company's ability to maintain a positive cash flow and to become profitable may be adversely affected as a result of a number of factors that could thwart its efforts. These factors include the Company's inability to successfully implement the Company's business and revenue model, higher costs than anticipated, the Company's inability to sell its products and services to a sufficient number of customers, the introduction of competing products or services by others, the Company's failure to attract sufficient interest in, and traffic to, its sites, the Company's inability to complete development of its products, the failure of the Company's operating systems, and the Company's inability to increase its revenues as rapidly as anticipated.

**Critical Accounting Policies**

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements. However, certain of our accounting policies are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management; as a result, they are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, our management makes estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. Those estimates and judgments are based upon our historical experience, the terms of existing contracts, our observance of trends in the industry, information that we obtain from our customers and outside sources, and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our critical accounting policies include:

The Company has two notes receivable outstanding that accrue annual interest and penalties for non-payment. The notes are backed by the assets of the debtor and management continues to evaluate the collectability of the notes. The Company has recognized significant gains on interest and penalties. If the Company determines this note is uncollectible, it could result in a significant loss and subsequent litigation for the Company.

**Results of Operations**

***Comparison of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024***

The following discussion compares the Company's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 with those for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report contain detailed information that should be referred to in conjunction with the following discussion.

------

*Revenues*

The following table compares total revenue for the periods indicated.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Years ended December 31, | Years ended December 31, | Years ended December 31, |
|  | 2025 | 2024 | % Change |

| Shipping coordination and label generation services | 20677832 | 18499613 | 12% |
| eCommerce services | 26540 | 68097 | (61)% |
| Total revenues | $20708235 | $18585525 | 11% |

---

Revenues increased $2,122,710 or 11% in 2025 primarily from a result of the fourth quarter increase in shipping coordination and label generation services due to the impacts of the Canada Post carrier strike. This event has had a significant impact on the entire Canadian transportation industry.

Client services revenues, which include brewery management software and shipping calculator services decreased $13,951 or 78% to $3,863 compared to $17,815 in 2024. The decrease was attributable to the retirement of the brewery management software business.

Shipping coordination and label generation services revenues increased $2,178,219 or 12% to $20,677,832 in 2025 compared to $18,499,613 in 2024. The increase is largely attributable to impacts of the Canada Post strike and the additional marketing for this segment of the business.

eCommerce services made up of PaidPayments and PaidWeb in the United States returned a decrease of $41,557 or 61% to $26,540 in 2025 compared to $68,097 in 2024. The Company is shifting the focus on single Paid products to a full platform of product offerings; the decrease is attributable to customers using PaidPayments products.

*Gross Profit*

Gross profit increased $573,378 or 14% to $4,644,795 in 2025 compared to $4,071,417 in 2024. Gross margin decreased to 22% for the year ended 2025 compared to 23% for 2024. The increase in gross profit was due to growth of the shipping coordination and label generation service revenues.

*Operating Expenses*

Total operating expenses in 2025 were $5,299,572 compared to $4,564,799 in 2024, an increase of $734,773 or 16%. The increase is mainly due to the share-based compensation for the renewal of one employee contract in addition to the hiring of two new executive level employees in 2025.

*Other Income/Expense, net* 

Net other income in 2025 was $50,520 in 2025 compared to $1,215,925 in 2024, a decrease of 1,165,405 or 96%. The 2024 other income is made of a gain of $1,192,182 on the Embolx, Inc. note receivable whereas the Company has elected to refrain from recording any revenues from the Embolx note until the end of the current agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(Benefit) Provision for Income Taxes*

Total income tax (benefit) provision for 2025 was $(236,014) compared to $(41,049) in 2024. The change of $194,965 is a result of the net effect of the adjustment for long term tax liabilities.

*Net Income* 

The Company reported a net loss in 2025 of $(368,243) compared to net income of $763,592 for the same period in 2024. The basic income per common share in 2025 is ($0.04) compared to $0.09 per common share in 2024.

*Inflation*

The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its results of operations.

**Working Capital and Liquidity**

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,108,059 on December 31, 2025 compared to $1,284,965 on December 31, 2024. The Company had working capital of ($304,212) on December 31, 2025 compared to ($629,467) on December 31, 2024, An increase of $325,255. The increase in working capital is attributed to the increase in notes receivable and the decrease in accounts payable for the year ended 2025.

Management believes that the Company has adequate cash resources to fund operations during the next 12 months. In addition, management continues to explore opportunities and partnerships to grow the Paid platform of services. However, there can be no assurance that the anticipated growth in new business will occur, and that the Company will be successful in launching new products and services. Management continues to seek alternative sources of capital to support the growth of future operations.

**Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk**

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide the information for this Item 6A.

**Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data**

The financial statements listed in Item 15(a) are incorporated herein by reference and are filed as a part of this report and follow the signature pages to this Annual Report on Form 10-K on page 33.

**Item 8. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure**

None.

**Item 9A. Controls and Procedures**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer /Chief Financial Officer of the Company, as its principal financial officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive/financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As described in our accompanying *Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting*, we have identified four remaining material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting. Because of these remaining material weaknesses, we concluded that, as of December 31, 2025 our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria outlined in *Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").

------

We continued to review new procedures and controls in 2026 and have taken steps to remediate the material weaknesses at the entity and activity levels, and to review further our procedures and controls in 2025. In addition, we expect to continue improve our infrastructure, personnel and related processes in order to strengthen and materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Prior to the complete remediation of these material weaknesses, there remains risk that the processes and procedures on which we currently rely will fail to be sufficiently effective, which could result in material misstatement of our financial position or results of operations and require a restatement. Moreover, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls even where we conclude the controls are operating effectively can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, including instances of fraud, if any have been detected. These inherent limitations include the fact that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, our control systems, as we develop them, may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be immediately detected and could be material to our financial statements.

The certifications of our principal executive officer/principal financial officer required in accordance with Rule 13a-14(a) under the Exchange Act and Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are attached as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The disclosures set forth in this Item 9A contain information concerning (i) the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, and changes in internal control over financial reporting, referred to in paragraph 4 of the certifications, and (ii) material weaknesses in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting, referred to in paragraph 5 of the certifications. Those certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 9A for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.

**Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting of the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer and affected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer/principal financial officer, is required to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based on criteria established under the COSO integrated framework of internal controls. The COSO framework identifies five components of internal control and provides a basis for evaluating the effectiveness of internal controls. Management has concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2024 due to the following:

1. Entity Level Controls

- Ineffective communication of information

- Ineffective monitoring of activities

2. Activity Level Controls

- Lack of procedures and control documentation

------

- Lack of documentation for cost of goods sold

- Lack of reconciliation of cash held in reserve

- Ineffective review of concessions provided to customers

**1. Inadequate Entity Level Controls**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

*Ineffective Communication of Information*

Information and communication systems support the identification, capture, and exchange of information in a form and time frame that enable people to carry out their responsibilities. This component includes information technology controls which are specific activities performed by persons of systems designed to ensure that the business objective can be met, protect the business from fraud and collusion, and keep the corporate assets protected and safe.

*Steps taken towards Remediation of Ineffective Communication of Information:*

● The Company has hired a CTO to oversee the IT environment and controls. Steps have been taken to implement backup and redundancies to reduce risk. Additional testing environments have been created along with adding new hires to create a stronger IT environment.

● Business objectives are communicated throughout the company with the addition of a new President who will be in the Canadian office on a regular basis. Company town hall meetings and weekly senior management meeting have shown significant improvement in aligning the business objectives.

*Ineffective Monitoring of Activities*

Monitoring is a process that assesses the quality of internal control performance over time.

*Steps taken towards Remediation of Ineffective Monitoring of Activities:*

● Additional internal controls regarding fraud and risk have been implemented using our merchant processing software. The Company continuously monitors these areas to mitigate any impacts of fraudulent behavior.

● The Company has automated reporting to monitor activity, members of senior management receive daily reporting on the revenue, margins and new customers visiting our site and using our services.

The Company believes improvements have been made to remediate its material weakness in the internal controls over financial reporting at the entity level but does not have the appropriate documentation to support its efforts. The Company also believes that further work is still required to develop appropriate controls in some aspects of entity level control to provide reasonable assurance that controls are designed in the most effective and efficient manner possible. While we believe these changes will be effective at mitigating the risk of material a error, there continues to be additional work required for us to conclude that all three of these control areas are operating effectively. As noted in the Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, we consider each of these control areas within the entity level control to constitute a material weakness.

------

The Company has taken significant steps to reduce risks associated with information technology controls and documentation. Our information technology department has implemented multi-factor authentication, segregated the duties between developers and performs periodic information technology risk assessments to strengthen our IT environment. We used cloud-based solutions, tokenization to remove the need to capture and site confidential financial data in addition to encryption to protect personal data.

**2.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Inadequate Activity Level Controls**

*Lack of Procedures and Control Documentation*

The Company lacks specific documentation relating to certain accounts, and financial closing, which in effect make these internal controls ineffective. The lack of documentation in internal controls relating to these accounts may affect the financial statements and will directly affect the nature and timing of other auditing procedures for certain activities.

*Steps taken towards Remediation of Revenue Recognition:*

● The Company continues to evaluate the use of technology to automate reports that are used for financial reporting. Monthly reconciliations are performed to analyze the contract liabilities and technology has been improved to assist in reducing the risks associate with human errors.

● *Steps taken towards Remediation of Financial Closing:*

● The Company has migrated the accounting software to cloud based technology. This will assist the finance team with additional segregation of duties and will allow the SVP of Finance more time to produce financial statements. Improvements in this area will continue through 2026.

● *Steps taken towards Remediation of Cash held in Reserve:*

● Improvements to the reconciliations for the cash held in reserve have been effective in reducing variances. Regular monthly reconciliations have been implemented to monitor for any significant changes.

The Company has made improvements to the activity level controls specifically with regard to the deficiencies with the financial close. In addition, further work is required to develop appropriate controls in the other aspects of activity level control to provide reasonable assurance that controls are designed in the most effective and efficient manner possible. Therefore, while we believe these changes are effective at mitigating risk of material error, there continues to be additional work required for us to conclude that this control area is operating effectively. Therefore, as noted in the Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, we consider this control area within the activity level control to constitute a material weakness.

A factor for our internal control deficiencies is the small size of the Company and the lack of a financial expert on the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and other corporate governance controls. As defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 5, a material weakness is a significant control deficiency or a combination of significant control deficiencies that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management continues to monitor and assess the controls to ensure compliance.

As a smaller reporting company, our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to issue a report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.

------

*Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting*

As discussed in the Managements' Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, the Company continues to make improvements to the entity and activity controls and expects to take further steps in 2026 to remediate the outlined deficiencies. The Company monitors all financial activity and has implemented automated tools to support the reconciliation process specific to financial reporting. The Company has added many new reconciliations to assist with the financial reporting. The CEO/CFO has worked with the SVP of Finance and management to identify areas of improvement and together they continue to implement cross training and redundancies to assist with internal controls. Departmental budgets have been established, and all transactions are reviewed monthly. The forecast is reviewed by the CFO on a regular basis and all members of Management contribute to the review. While we believe these improvements are effective at mitigating the risk of a material error, we have not yet concluded that they are operating effectively. There were several areas of improvement in our segregation of duties, financial closing, and information technology controls that have positively impacted our internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended 2025.

Andrew Pilaro was elected as of September 19, 2000, for a term expiring at the 2001 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are elected and qualified. On March 27, 2021, the Company amended its Bylaws to reduce the existing Board of Directors from five positions to three positions. At that time, W. Austin Lewis, IV and Allan Pratt automatically rolled off from the Board of Directors. Under Delaware law, unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws, directors are elected for one-year terms at the annual meeting of shareholders. The Amended Bylaws would provide for the Board to be divided into three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms. As a result, approximately one-third of the Board will be elected each year. Initially, three directors will serve between one-to-three-year terms. The directors placed in a Class I position will serve for approximately one year. The directors placed in a Class II position will serve for approximately two years. The directors placed in a Class III position will serve approximately three years. After this transitional arrangement, the Directors will serve for three-year terms, with one class being elected each year. On October 15, 2025 David Ogden submitted a resignation from the Board of Directors, the Company is currently conducting a search to fill the open position.

**Andrew Pilaro** has served as a Director of PAID since September 2000. He is President of CAP Properties Limited, a family office which is an investment management company, with a primary responsibility for asset management. Mr. Pilaro was asked to serve as a director because he provides investment management skills and has a general business background.

Mr. Lewis holds a Bachelor of Science in Finance and a Bachelor of Science in Financial Economics from James Madison University. Mr. Lewis was asked to serve as the CEO because he had a thorough knowledge of the Company's strengths and weaknesses and has a strong background in being able to make companies run efficiently and successfully.

**David Ogden** is the CEO of Soho Management Consulting, a global investment consulting firm, and President of Soho Printing LLC in Naples, Florida. He has held many senior positions with FedEx, including Managing Director of Sales for the FedEx Middle East and Africa region based in Dubai, where he played a key role in India's launch as a directly served FedEx location.

After his tenure with FedEx, he relocated to Egypt, where he established a group of companies offering best-in-class business support services under a holding company. Following Egypt, he moved to Abu Dhabi to work for an alternative investment company focused on developing warehousing and logistics parks in the United Arab Emirates. Recently, he has been involved with e-commerce ventures from around the world. As of October 15, 2025 Mr. Ogden has resigned from the Board of Directors.

The Company has not made any material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Board of Directors. The Board does not have a separate nominating committee.

**Audit Committee**

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules to implement certain requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 pertaining to public company audit committees. One of the rules requires a company to disclose whether it has an "audit committee financial expert" serving on its audit committee. Based on its review of the criteria of an audit committee financial expert under the rule adopted by the SEC, the Board of Directors does not believe that any member of the Board of Directors' Audit Committee would be described as an audit committee financial expert. At this time, the Board of Directors believes it would be desirable for the Audit Committee to have an audit committee financial expert serving on the committee. While from time-to-time informal discussions as to potential candidates have occurred, no formal search process has commenced. Andrew Pilaro, one of the Company's independent directors, is the sole member of the audit committee. The audit committee does not have a charter.

**Audit Committee Report**

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, with our management. The Audit Committee also reviewed and discussed our audited consolidated financial statements, and the matters required to be discussed, by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"), including material weaknesses and other internal control deficiencies with dbbmckennon, our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee received from dbbmckennon the written disclosures and letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant's communications with the audit committee concerning independence and has discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant's independence.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that our audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

These persons are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all such reports they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company and representations that no other reports were required, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers and directors and beneficial owners of more than 10% of the Company's stock, have been complied with for the period which this Form 10-K relates.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Paid, Inc.

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Paid, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matter**

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current year audit of the financial statements that was communicated, or required to be communicated, to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

**Recoverability of Note Receivable**

Description of the Matter:

As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, the Company has a note receivable from a third party. Management's assessment of the recoverability of the note receivable involves significant judgment and estimates related to the borrowers' financial condition and future sources of cash flows. These were the principal considerations that led us to determine this as a critical audit matter.

How We Addressed the Matter in our Audit:

We obtained an understanding of the controls over the Company's identification of the allowance estimation process. To evaluate the third party's ability to repay the note, our audit procedures included, among others, obtaining and reviewing the note receivable agreements, reviewing the third party's financial statements and cash flow projections, confirming with the third party as to the balance and terms of the note receivable, and evaluating subsequent events.

/s/ dbbmckennon

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2024.

**PAID, INC. & SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTE 2. LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT**'**S PLANS**

As of December 31, 2025, the Company reported cash and cash equivalents of $1,108,059 and had working deficit of ($304,212). The Company has reported a net operating loss of ($368,243), and used cash from operations of ($53,171) for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Management believes that the Company has adequate cash resources to fund operations during the next 12 months after the filing of this annual report on Form 10-K. However, there can be no assurance that the anticipated growth of the existing products will occur, and that the Company will be successful in launching new products and services. To address the cash requirements, Management has considered a reduction in expenses and the issuance of stock for select payroll and consulting expenses. They may also seek alternative sources of capital to support the growth of future operations.

Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes that the above management plan will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital requirements through March 31, 2027 and will have a positive impact on the Company for the foreseeable future.

**NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Basis of Presentation**

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

------

**Principles of Consolidation**

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PAID, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, ShipTime Canada Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

**Foreign Currency**

The currency of ShipTime, the Company's international subsidiary, is in Canadian dollars. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at each balance sheet date. Results of operations and cash flows are translated using the average exchange rates throughout the period. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on translation of assets and liabilities is included as a separate component of shareholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive income.

**Geographic Concentrations**

The Company conducts business in the U.S. and Canada. For customers headquartered in their respective countries, the Company derived approximately 99% of its revenues from Canada and 1% from the U.S. during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company maintained 100% of its net property and equipment in Canada.

**Comprehensive Income (Loss)**

Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the components of comprehensive income (loss) consist solely of foreign currency translation gains (losses).

**Use of Estimates**

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

**Fair Value Measurements**

The Company measures the fair value of certain of its financial assets on a recurring basis. A fair value hierarchy is used to rank the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents**

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

------

**Concentration of Risk**

The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to USD $250,000 and the Canadian Depositors Insurance Corporation ("CDIC") up to CAD $100,000. At December 31, 2024, the Company had amounts that exceeded the CDIC insurance limits but none that were in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to these deposits.

The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, generally without requiring collateral. Exposure to losses on accounts receivable is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded an allowance for credit losses of $50,742 and $11,134, respectively. The Company evaluates the reserve for additional credit losses on a quarterly basis.

As of December 31, 2025 there were no customers that accounted for more than 10% and as of December 31, 2024 there was one customer that accounted for more than 10%, of the accounts receivable balance for the year. The loss of this customer would not have a significant impact on our operations.

**Property and Equipment**

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to eight years. Any leasehold improvements are depreciated at the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the lease term. Equipment purchased under finance leases is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

**Right-of-Use Assets**

A right-of-use asset represents a lessee's right to use a leased asset for the term of the lease. Our right-of-use assets consist of an operating lease for office space.

Right-of-use assets are measured initially at the present value of the lease payments, plus any lease payments made before a lease began and any initial direct costs, such as commissions paid to obtain a lease.

Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, adjusted for incentives, prepaid or accrued rent, and any initial direct costs not yet expensed.

**Intangible Assets**

Intangible assets consist of patents, client lists, trade names and customer relationships, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Currently the only intangible assets remaining is customer relationships which are being amortized over 15 years.

**Long-Lived Assets**

The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the fair value of the related asset. No impairment charges were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company's services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

------

**Revenue Recognition**

The Company generates revenues principally from fees for coordinating shipping services, brewery management software subscriptions, eCommerce services and client services (see Note 4).

**Cost of Revenues**

Cost of revenues includes carrier services, web hosting, data storage, commissions, carrier insurance costs and merchant processing interchange fees.

**Operating Expenses**

Operating expenses include indirect expenses, including credit card processing fees, marketing, payroll, travel, facility costs, amortization of intangible assets and other general and administrative expenses.

**Advertising**

Advertising costs are charged to expenses as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, advertising expenses totaled $384,040 and $347,258, respectively, and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

**Share-Based Compensation**

The Company grants options to purchase the Company's common stock to employees, directors and consultants under stock option plans. The benefits provided under these plans are share-based payments that the Company accounts for using the fair value method. During the year ended December 31, 2025 the Company recorded $124,709 for share-based bonus payments related to 2025 which were approved by the Board of Directors on February 27, 2026. The Company recorded $193,246 for share-based bonus payments related to 2024 which were approved by the Board of Directors on March 07, 2025 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The shares of common stock were issued to the CEO/CFO, one additional officer and three employees.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model ("Black-Scholes-Merton model") that uses assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, expected stock price volatility, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock. The expected terms of options granted are based on analyses of historical employee termination rates and option exercises. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant. Since the Company does not expect to pay dividends on common stock in the foreseeable future, it estimated the dividend yield to be 0%.

Share-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest and is amortized under the straight-line attribution method. As share-based compensation expense recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. The fair value method requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company estimates forfeitures based on historical experience. Changes to the estimated forfeiture rate are accounted for as a cumulative effect of change in the period the change occurred.

Since the Company has a net operating loss carry-forward as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no excess tax benefits for tax deductions related to share-based awards were recognized from any stock options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 that would have resulted in a reclassification from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from financing activities.

**Income Taxes**

The Company accounts for income taxes and the related accounts under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is applied against any net deferred tax asset if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets. The Company's income tax provision includes state minimum taxes.

------

The Company recognizes any uncertain income tax positions on income tax returns at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained (see Note 11).

The Company's policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., and Canada and various state jurisdictions.

**Income (Loss) Per Common Share**

Basic income (loss) per share represents income (loss) divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income (loss) that would result from the assumed issuance. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were approximately 341,500 and 6,100, respectively, dilutive shares that were excluded in the diluted income per share.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted income per share computations for the years ended December 31:

---

|:---|:---|:---|
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
| Numerator: |  |  |
| Net income (loss) | $(368243) | $763592 |
| Denominator: |  |  |
| Basic weighted-average shares outstanding | 8421254 | 8054400 |
| Effect of dilutive securities |  | 20285 |

| Net income (loss) per share – basic | $(0.04) | $0.09 |
| Net income (loss) per share – diluted | $(0.04) | $0.09 |

---

**Segment Reporting**

The Company reports information about segments of its business in its annual consolidated financial statements and reports selected segment information in its quarterly reports issued to shareholders. The Company also reports on its entity-wide disclosures about the products and services it provides and reports revenues and its major customers. The Company's four reportable segments are managed separately based on fundamental differences in their operations. At December 31, 2025, the Company operated in the following four reportable segments:

a) Client services;

b) eCommerce services;

c) Shipping coordination and label generation services; and

d) Corporate operations.

The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on operating income. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in this summary of significant accounting policies. The Company's chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

Accounting Standard Update 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which requires more detailed income tax disclosures. The guidance requires entities to disclose disaggregated information about their effective tax rate reconciliation as well as expanded information on income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The disclosure requirements will be applied on a prospective basis, with the option to apply them retrospectively. The standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted this guidance for the annual period ending December 31, 2025.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures which provides guidance to improve the disclosures about a public entity's reportable segments and address requests from investors for additional, more detailed information about reportable segment's expenses. The new guidance was adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company recognizes revenue by taking into consideration the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Due to the nature of the Company's service and product offerings and contracts associated with these, the Company's deliverables do not fluctuate, and its revenue recognition is consistent. The Company evaluates whether amounts billed to customers should be reported as revenues on a gross or net basis. Generally, revenue is recorded on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the services, when it assumes the risk of loss, when it has discretion in setting the prices for the services to the customers, and when the Company has the ability to direct the use of the services provided by the third party. We generally are responsible for the fulfilment of a customer order despite the fact we do not directly provide the delivery services; we can redirect delivery to other shipping companies in our network. We control the price for which the customer pays and generally collect the gross shipping fees and remit the contractual rate to this shipping company. Our risk of loss relates to credit card chargebacks, certain self-insured shipping losses and other miscellaneous charges that we cannot pass through to the shipping company.

*Nature of Goods and Services*

For label generation service revenues, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer has successfully prepared a shipping label, and their shipment is delivered. Customers with pickups and shipments in transit after the end of the reporting period are recorded as contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The service is offered to consumers via an online registration and allows users to create a shipping label using a credit card on their account (all customers must have a valid credit card on file to process shipments on the ShipTime platform).

------

For brewery management software revenues, the Company recognizes subscription revenue on a monthly basis. Brewery management software subscribers are billed monthly at the first of the month. All payments are made via credit card for the following month.

eCommerce and merchant processing revenue consists of fees a seller pays us to process their payment transactions and is recognized upon authorization of a transaction. Revenue is recognized net of estimated refunds, which are reversals of transactions initiated by sellers. We act as the merchant of record for our sellers, which puts us in their shoes with respect to card networks and puts the risk for refunds and chargebacks on us. The gross transaction fees collected from sellers is recognized as revenue as we are the primary obligor to the seller and are responsible for processing the payment, have latitude in establishing pricing with respect to the sellers and other terms of service, have sole discretion in selecting the third party to perform the settlement, and assume the credit risk for the transaction processed.

*Revenue Disaggregation*

The Company operates in four reportable segments (see Note 3).

*Performance Obligations*

At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is carried out and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). The Company fulfills nearly all of its performance obligations within a one-to-two-week period and contracts with customers have an original expected duration of less than one month. The Company generally has an unconditional right to consideration when the services are initiated or soon thereafter. The amount due from the customer is either collected up front or recorded as accounts receivable. The amounts related to services that are not yet completed at the reporting date are presented as contract liabilities. The Company measures the performance of its obligations as services are completed over the life of a shipment, including services at origin, freight and destination. This method of measurement of progress depicts the pattern of the Company's actual performance under the contracts with the customer. For arrangements under which the Company provides a subscription for brewery management software, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over the life of the subscription, typically twelve months or less.

For arrangements under which the Company provides a subscription for brewery management software, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over the life of the subscription, typically twelve months or less.

Merchant processing customers receive a merchant identification number which allows them to process credit card transactions. Once the transaction is approved, the funds are distributed in an overnight feed and the Company has met its performance obligation.

The Company has no shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers.

Revenues are recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.

*Significant Payment Terms*

Pursuant to the Company's contracts with its customers, amounts are collected up front primarily through credit/debit card transactions. Accordingly, the Company determined that its contracts with customers do not include extended payment terms or a significant financing component.

*Measurement of Credit Losses*

The Company has accounts receivable and note receivable and monitors the granting of credit and collecting debt on an ongoing basis. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical loss patterns, the number of days that billings are past due, and an evaluation of potential risk of loss associated with delinquent accounts. The Company has two notes receivable and is a senior secure lender with an absolute obligation for one of the notes. The primary note was evaluated for credit losses as of December 31, 2025 by considering the contractual obligation, the valuation of the assets and the senior position of the repayment.

------

*Variable Consideration*

In some cases, the nature of the Company's contracts may give rise to variable consideration, including rebates and cancellations or other similar items that generally decrease the transaction price.

Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available.

Revenues are recorded net of variable considerations, such as rebates, refunds and cancellations.

*Warranties*

The Company's products and services are provided on an "as is" basis and no warranties are included in the contracts with customers. Also, the Company does not offer separately priced extended warranty or product maintenance contracts.

*Contract Assets*

Typically, the Company has already collected revenue from the customer at the time it has satisfied its performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company has a balance of accounts receivable, totaling $302,894, $193,852, and $205,647 at December 31, 2025 and 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company has recorded a balance of $234,972 in contract assets as of December 31, 2025.

*Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue)*

Contract liabilities are recorded when cash payments are received in advance of the Company's performance (including rebates). Contract liabilities were $329,725 and $372,795 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenues of $372,792 and $15,832, respectively, related to contract liabilities outstanding at the beginning of each year. The Company expects to recognize $329,725 in revenue related to contract liabilities in the first quarter of 2026.

**NOTE 5. NOTE RECEIVABLE**

On October 13, 2022, the Company entered in a Securities Purchase Agreement ("SPA") with respect to a secured $1,875,000 convertible note ("Convertible Note") made by Embolx, Inc. ("Noteholder"). The Convertible Note was purchased at a 20% ($375,000) original issue discount and is subject to a 9-month maturity, after which, if unpaid will then carry a 20% interest rate. The Company recognized $270,833 in other income related to accretion of the discount on the Convertible Note for the year ended December 31, 2023 in addition to a $375,000, 20% non-payment penalty and interest due on the note of $203,425. The Company has the option to convert the Convertible Note into shares of common stock of Embolx. The Convertible Note is secured by substantially all assets of the Noteholder. Under the SPA, the Company has a right to purchase additional notes and receive warrants on the same terms for a total potential investment amount of $2,000,000 with an additional over-allotment option of $500,000 as defined in the SPA. As additional consideration, the Company received a 5-year warrant to purchase shares of common stock of the Embolx. The shares were subject to certain piggyback registration rights under a Registration Rights Agreement. The warrant was offered at 50% of the original principal amount and was valued at the price per share of common stock paid in the first liquidity event following October 19, 2022. The warrants were to expire five years from the original issue date. As of July 19, 2023, the note was in default and carried an additional 20% penalty and 20% interest resulting in $578,425 of other income which was recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. In March 2024, the Company amended and replaced the note and terminated the warrants. The terms on the amended note receivable include an additional investment of $500,000 with 25% original issue discount and was due on June 19, 2024. The Company was granted a $50,000 increase to the debt owed by Embolx which was applied toward legal expenses incurred during the first quarter relating to the preparation of the note documentation.

------

The note receivable was in default effective June 19, 2024, in the amount of $4,193,607 and the Company ceased recording of interest and penalties of $2,299,849 and default penalties of $838,721. The total due on the note as of December 31, 2025 was $7,332,177. On July 29, 2024, the Board of Directors approved an extension with Embolx which was effective as of January 31, 2025. The Company entered into a Forbearance and Loan Modification Agreement with Embolx which extended the note receivable of $5,967,100 until September 30, 2025 and carried a 25% interest rate. On September 30, 2025 the Company amended the Forbearance Agreement to expire on August 31, 2026. Although the note is considered a short-term note, the full amount of the note receivable is not expected to be collected by December 31, 2026, and thus has been reclassed as long-term.

The Company does not believe there is any impairment to the note receivable due to its secured position on the assets of Embolx and its expectation that the amounts will be recoverable if and when Embolx consummates a financial or merger transaction which is expected to happen in 2025 or 2026.

The Company entered into a $50,000 short term note with 5String Solutions LLC on April 4, 2024. The terms on the note include a 12% annual interest rate from the inception of the note which was due on May 15, 2024. The note has been amended as of July 3, 2024 and the initial investment shall be deducted from the future advance and the note shall be deemed paid in full. The new note includes an additional $198,500 investment carrying a 12% interest rate. The short term note of $50,000 plus $1,500 interest calculated from April 4, 2024 to July 3, 2024, along with the $198,500 additional investment results in a $250,000 long term note due on or before April 30, 2027. On April 30, 2027 the Company has the option to convert the balance of the $400,000 note receivable into 55% ownership of 5String Solutions. In the event that the Company elects to convert the noted they subsequently have the option to purchase the remaining 45% ownership of 5String Solutions at a rate of 5-times EBITDA reported on December 31, 2026. On July 1, 2025 and October 10, 2025, the Company made an additional investment of $75,000 per occurrence and in accordance with the original terms of the July 3, 2024 amendment.

Interest of $36,123 has been recorded based on the outstanding balance of the $400,000 note for the year ending December 31, 2025.

**NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

**Legal Matters**

In the normal course of business, the Company periodically becomes involved in litigation and disputes. During 2021, the Company was notified of a dispute related to its non-renewal of the employment agreement with Mr. Allan Pratt, the Company's former President, CEO and Chairman. On or around January 2020, the Company had allowed Mr. Pratt's employment agreement to not renew, but Mr. Pratt alleges in a court in Canada that the Company terminated him and that the Company owes him a severance and bonus payment. Around the same time that Mr. Pratt's employment term expired, the Company's Board of Directors voted to reduce the size of the Board from five to three members, and Mr. Pratt and Mr. Austin Lewis, then CFO, automatically rolled off from the Board of Directors. More than a year later, in 2021, Mr. Pratt filed a claim in Delaware court to contest that decision. In July 2022, Mr. Pratt amended the Delaware complaint to dispute the proper authorization of a stock bonus that was awarded to the Company's CEO in March 2021. On November 9, 2023, the Delaware court dismissed the claim contesting the reduction of the board size. The trial on the remaining claim was held before the Delaware court on December 5-6, 2024. Post-trial briefing in the Delaware action was completed on March 21, 2025, followed by a post-trial hearing on May 14, 2025. The Company has not recorded a reserve as the outcome of these matters has not and cannot be determined.

------

**Indemnities and Guarantees**

The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its facility lease, the Company has agreed to indemnify its lessor for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

**NOTE 10. SHAREHOLDERS**' **EQUITY**

**Preferred Stock**

The Company's amended Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of blank-check preferred stock at $0.001 par value. The Board of Directors will be authorized to fix the designations, rights, preferences, powers and limitations of each series of the preferred stock.

The Company filed a Certificate of Designations effective on December 30, 2016 which sets aside 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as Series A Preferred Stock. Series A Preferred Stock carries a coupon payment obligation of 1.5% of the liquidation value per share ($3.03) per year in cash or additional Series A Preferred Stock, calculated by taking the 30-day average closing price for a share of common stock for the month immediately preceding the coupon payment date which is made annually. The Series A Preferred Stock has no voting or conversion rights. If purchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired (other than conversion), the preferred stock may be reissued. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there are no outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

**Common Stock**

In February 2020, ShipTime Canada amended its rights to exchange one share of ShipTime Canada stock from 45 PAID common shares and 311 PAID preferred shares to 356 PAID common shares. The exchange was offered on a one-to-one basis. Shareholders holding 1,015,851 shares of Series A Preferred Stock exchanged such shares for 1,015,851 shares of PAID common stock. Furthermore, because of the amended exchange rights, the Company reported an additional exchange of PAID Series A Preferred Stock shares totaling 2,089,298 to PAID common shares, representing the additional amount of PAID common shares that will be issued to the ShipTime shareholders upon the exchange. The Company has had the option to force an exchange since December 2021. In total, the Company has reserved for future issuance of 2,106,880 shares of PAID common stock with respect to the remaining 5,918 exchangeable shares to be issued as a result of the ShipTime acquisition which are considered issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2025 for financial reporting purposes.

On March 21, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 46,961 bonus shares of PAID common stock to the CEO/CFO, one additional officer and one employee for services rendered during 2022. This bonus was valued at $82,180 based on the closing price of the Company's common stock at March 20, 2023 and was issued in March 2023 and recorded in accrued common stock bonus in shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2022. The Board of Directors also authorized the issuance of an additional 250,000 shares to the CEO/CFO as a renewal bonus valued at $437,500. $218,750 of share-based compensation expense was recognized immediately as 125,000 of the bonus shares are immediately vested. The remaining $218,750 of share-based compensation expense was recognized ratably during 2023 as 125,000 of the bonus shares are subject to repurchase if the CEO/CFO were to terminate employment during the period ended January 1, 2024. The Company recorded $437,500 of share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 in connection with these additional shares.

On February 22, 2024 the Board authorized the issuance of 54,559 bonus shares of PAID common stock to the CEO/CFO, one additional officer and one employee for services rendered during 2023. This bonus was valued at $84,576 based on the closing price of the Company's common stock at February 21, 2024 and was issued in February 2024. This bonus was recorded in accrued common stock bonus in shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2023. On March 7, 2025 the Board authorized the issuance of 62,502 bonus shares of PAID common stock to the CEO/CFO, one additional officer and two employees for services rendered during 2024. This bonus was valued at $189,380 based on the closing price of the Company's common stock at March 6, 2025 and was issued in March 2025. This bonus was recorded in accrued common stock bonus in shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2024. See Note 14 for discussion of 2026 issuances.

\*State taxes in Massachusetts made up the majority (greater than 50 percent) of the tax effect in this category.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's net deferred tax liabilities are as follows as of December 31:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
| Deferred taxes: |  |  |
| NOLs | $5979666 | $6487219 |
| Inventory and other reserves | 7844 | 31340 |
| Stock based compensation expense | 200264 | 272285 |
| Accruals | 24239 | 18207 |
| Other | 96 | 96 |
| Total deferred tax assets | 6212109 | 6809147 |
| Depreciation and amortization | (442263) | (484941) |
| Right-of-use assets |  |  |
| Valuation allowance | (6177747) | (6744334) |
| Net deferred tax liabilities | $(407901) | $(420128) |

---

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. The reduction in the valuation allowance is approximately $567,000 and $809,000 in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $25,820,000. Of the total amount approximately $902,000 were generated after January 1, 2018, and therefore will not expire but can only be used to offset 80 percent of future taxable income. The remaining amount of approximately $24,918,000 expires beginning in the year 2026. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $8,098,000 which expire beginning in the year 2031. As of December 31, 2025, the Company also had Canada net operating loss carryforwards of $1,613,000 which expire beginning in the year 2040.

Utilization of the net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation due to federal and state ownership change limitation provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such annual limitations could result in the expiration of the net operating losses and credits before their utilization. The Company has not performed an analysis to determine the limitation of the net operating loss carryforwards.

A valuation allowance of 100% has been established in respect of the deferred income tax assets due to the uncertainty of the Company's utilization of such deferred tax assets for the U.S. federal and state on each of the Company's consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (the "2025 Tax Act") was signed into law on July 4, 2025. The 2025 Tax Act, among other things, extends certain provisions of 2017 U.S. federal tax legislation relating to federal bonus depreciation and immediate expensing for domestic research and development expenditures. These provisions did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

------

The evaluation of uncertainty in a tax position is a two-step process. The first step involves recognition. The Company determines whether it's more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon tax examination including any resolution of any related appeals or litigation, based on only the technical merits of the position. The technical merits of a tax position are derived from both statutory and judicial authority (legislation and statutes, legislative intent, regulations, rulings, and case law) and their applicability to the facts and circumstances of the tax position. If a tax position does not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the benefit of that position is not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The second step is measurement. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The tax position is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate resolution with a taxing authority. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted after considering facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, developments in case law and closing of statutes of limitation.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits at the beginning and end of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
| Gross unrecognized tax benefits at the beginning of the year | $691481 | $707632 |
| Increases related to current year positions |  |  |
| Increases (decreases) related to prior year positions | 34720 | (2116) |
| Expiration of unrecognized tax benefits | (176578) | (14035) |
| Gross unrecognized tax benefits at the end of the year | $549623 | $691481 |

---

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would impact the Company's effective tax rate, if recognized, is $563,440 (including estimated penalties and interest).

The income tax provision at December 31, 2025 reflects a full accounting of tax filings under ASC subtopic 740-10. The Company is subject to U.S. federal and Massachusetts state tax. With limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by the tax authorities for years before 2022. Generally, the tax years remain open for examination by the federal and Massachusetts authorities under a three-year statute of limitation. In addition, the Company's tax years starting 2006 and 2011 are subject to limited examination by the United States and Massachusetts authorities, respectively, due to the carryforward of unutilized net operating losses. ShipTime is subject to taxation in Canada and Ontario. The foreign subsidy is generally subject to examination for 4 years following the year in which the tax obligation originated. ShipTime is not currently under examination by the local tax authority. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related with income taxes, as estimated or incurred, as part of the income tax provision.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 the Company accrued $13,818 and $37,102 of interest and penalties related to foreign income taxes. The Company does not believe its unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly during the next twelve months.

**NOTE 13. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES**

Trade discussions and arrangements between the U.S. and various of its trading partners are unpredictable, and existing and future trade agreements are, and are expected to continue to be, subject to several uncertainties, including the imposition of new tariffs or adjustments and changes to existing tariff policies. The impact of new laws, regulations and policies or decisions or interpretations by authorities applying those laws and regulations, cannot be predicted. The Company is currently evaluating the accounts receivable for reserves for unpaid tariffs, however the amounts cannot be calculated as the trade agreements have yet to be settled by the U.S.

**NOTE 14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**

On February 27, 2026, the Board of Directors approved the allocation of the 2025 bonus accrual to be paid out in cash and shares of which $124,709 have been recorded as share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2025. A total of 50,974 shares of common stock were issued to two officers and three employees in March 2026.

On January 30, 2026 the Company acquired an approximate 80% shareholder interest in Warehowz, Inc., a Virgina corporation. As part of the acquisition, the Company will repay approximately $102,000 in indebtedness on or around February 28, 2026 in shares of restricted common stock of the Company, based on the 30-day prior average, and will pay off an additional $75,000 convertible note within 120 days of closing. The total consideration for the acquisition is $177,000 plus any earnouts described below, which are based on a percentage of net revenue and net income contributed by Warehowz, Inc.

In addition, after subtracting certain costs and debts from the payment requirement, the Company will pay those shareholders who transferred shares to the Company two payments based on each shareholder's percentage ownership of Warehowz, Inc., which payment shall equal 8.5% of net revenue plus 40% of the net income, for each of the 12 months ended December 31, 2026 and 2027. The earnout cash payments will be due on April 15, 2027 and April 15, 2028 respectively. Payments are subject to offset against any indemnity claims and any liabilities related to Warehowz, Inc. that were not expressly assumed.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustment to or additional disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed herein.

**Corporate Disclosure and Insider Trading Policy**

**1. Objective**

The objective of this Corporate Disclosure and Insider Trading Policy (the "*Policy*") of Paid, Inc. (the "Company") is to ensure that communications to the investing public about the Company are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) timely, factual and accurate, and;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) consistent and broadly disseminated in accordance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Everyone who invests in the Company's securities should have equal access to information that may affect their investment decisions. Insiders of the Company and others who have received or have access to undisclosed Material Information (hereinafter defined) about the Company should not purchase or sell the Company's securities or inform others of the undisclosed Material Information unless it is necessary in the ordinary course of business.

This Policy extends to all directors, officers, consultants and employees of the Company, any wholly-owned subsidiaries and those authorized to speak on the Company's behalf. It covers:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) disclosures in documents filed with the SEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) written statements made in annual and quarterly reports, news releases, proxy statements, letters and other communications to shareholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) speeches and presentations by senior management or other persons speaking on behalf of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) information contained on the Company's website and other electronic communications; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) oral statements made in meetings and telephone conversations with analysts and investors, interviews with the media as well as press conferences and conference calls.

Securities laws of the United States prohibit trading in the securities of a Company on the basis of "*inside*" information (information that is material and not available to the public). Anyone violating these laws is subject to personal liability and could face criminal penalties. In light of the severity of possible sanctions both to employees individually and to the Company, the Board of Directors has adopted this Policy. This Policy confirms in writing the Company's existing practices. Its goal is to raise awareness of the Company's approach among the Board of Directors, senior management, personnel, and others who may have received or have access to undisclosed Material Information about the Company.

**Exhibit 19.0**

**2. Insiders**

Insiders include:

● all Directors;

● all executive officers;

● such other employees as are designated from time to time by the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer as being subject to this policy (the "Designated Employees");

● all family members of Directors, executive officers and Designated Employees who share the same address as, or are financially dependent on, the Director, executive officer or Designated Employee; and

● all corporations, partnerships, trusts or other entities controlled by any of the above persons.

For the purposes of this Policy "*Insider*" shall also mean all employees and consultants ("personnel") associated with the Company, and joint venture partners who receive or have access to Material Information.

**3. Material Information**

It is not possible to define all categories of Material Information but there are various categories of information that are particularly sensitive and, as a general rule, should always be considered material, such as merger and acquisition activities and material financial results. If there is uncertainty regarding the materiality of information, the Board of Directors ("Board") shall make a determination. Insiders should be aware that both positive and negative information is generally considered to be Material Information if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) it would reasonably be expected to have a significant effect on the market price or value of the Company's securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) there is a reasonable likelihood that it would be considered important to and investor in making a decision regarding the purchase or sale of securities of the Company.

The Board will give consideration to the nature of the information itself, the volatility of the Company's securities and prevailing market conditions.

**4. Restriction on Disclosure of Material Information**

No Insider shall disclose Material Information regarding the Company to any person or group of persons until it has been generally disseminated to the public in accordance with this Policy. Disclosure in individual or group meetings does not constitute adequate disclosure of information that is considered Material Information.

------

**Exhibit 19.0**

The Board may approve limited exceptions to this prohibition where disclosure is made to the Company's auditors, legal counsel, underwriters or other professional advisors in the necessary course of the Company's business.

**5. Public Disclosure**

The Company shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the timely disclosure of Material Information and changes. Once a decision is made that information is material, applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules may require in some circumstances prompt disclosure, and broad dissemination to the public in a manner that is both accurate and complete, whether favorable news or unfavorable news. The principal method of publicly disclosing Material Information will be by news release, using a news wire service that provides simultaneous distribution to widespread news services, financial media, and relevant stock exchanges and regulatory bodies. The Company will comply with the SEC's rules and the rules of any listing agreement and regulations thereunder regarding the timing of release of news releases, and any requirement to obtain pre-clearance of news releases. The Company will file material change reports and Form 8-K reports when required in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations.

In certain circumstances, the Company may determine certain Material Information may be withheld from the public for legitimate business purposes (for example if release of the information would prejudice negotiations in a corporate transaction), in which case the information will be kept confidential until the Board determines it is appropriate to publicly disclose that information.

All news releases should be accurate and complete and should contain enough detail to enable the media and investors to understand the substance and importance of the change being disclosed. All news releases from the Company shall be disseminated and pre-approved by the Board, or as it may otherwise designate from time to time. In addition, the Company's corporate news releases and news releases relating to Material Information must be approved by the CEO or CFO.

**6. Market Rumors**

It is the Company's general policy not to respond to market rumors or speculation unless required by applicable regulatory authorities. The standard response by the Company's spokesperson to questions concerning rumors shall be "*We do not comment on rumors*". However, any rumor that has had or is likely to have a substantial effect on the price of the Company's securities will be clarified or confirmed in accordance with securities regulations.

**7. Discussion Boards and Chat Rooms**

Insiders are prohibited from participating in discussions of the Company's corporate matters in chat rooms or bulletin boards. Insiders shall immediately report to the Board any discussion pertaining to confidential or previously undisclosed information regarding the Company which they find on the Internet.

------

**Exhibit 19.0**

**8. Insider Trading Restrictions and Obligations**

It is illegal for anyone to purchase or sell securities of any public company with knowledge of Material Information affecting that company that has not been publicly disclosed. Except in the necessary course of business, it is also illegal for anyone to inform any other person of confidential Material Information.

Insiders and employees with knowledge of confidential or Material Information about the Company or counter-parties in negotiations of potential material transactions, are prohibited from trading securities in the Company or any counter-party company until the information has been fully disclosed and a reasonable period of time has passed for the information to be widely disseminated.

No Insider may disclose or "*tip*" undisclosed Material Information to any other person (including family members), and no Insider may make recommendations or express opinions to any other person on the basis of undisclosed Material Information with regard to trading in securities of the Company.

No Insider who receives or has access to the Company's undisclosed Material Information may comment on stock price movement or rumors of other corporate developments that are of possible significance to the investing public unless such person is authorized in writing by the Board.

Insiders are personally responsible for filing accurate and timely insider trading reports.

**9. Exceptions**

The prohibition on trading does not apply to the exercise of stock options granted under the stock option plan nor to the exercise of outstanding share purchase warrants, but does apply to the subsequent sale of any securities acquired thereunder.

**10. Pre-Clearance of Trades**

Occasionally, certain individuals may have access to undisclosed Material Information for a limited period of time. During such a period, such persons may be notified in writing or by electronic media (with acknowledgment of receipt) by the Board that they must obtain pre-clearance at any time prior to buying or selling securities of the Company. Examples of persons subject to pre-clearance by virtue of their jobs are members of the executive team and their administrative staff, investor relations, finance and business development departments.

------

**Exhibit 19.0**

**11. Suspension of Trading and Trading Blackout Periods**

There may be periods when it will be recommended by the Board that directors, officers, selected personnel and other persons suspend trading because of developments that have not yet been disclosed to the public. All those affected will be notified in writing or by electronic media (with acknowledgment of receipt by the Board and should not trade while the suspension is in effect nor disclose to others that trading has been suspended).

The Board will notify Insiders to whom the blackout period applies, in writing or by electronic media (with acknowledgment of receipt, advising as to the commencement and termination of the trading blackout period. During the blackout period, no individuals may purchase or sell securities of the Company. All parties with knowledge of special circumstances will be covered by the blackout and may include external advisors such as legal counsel, investment bankers and counter-parties in negotiations of potential material transactions. Insiders may not commence trading on the day a news release is issued. If the news release is after trading hours, then there should be no trading the next trading day. Insiders will receive electronic notification when a blackout has ended.

**12. Questions**

Questions concerning this Policy should be addressed to the Company's Chief Financial Officer.

**13. Distribution of Policy**

This Policy will be circulated to all directors, officers and personnel upon approval by the Board and whenever changes are made. New personnel, directors and officers will be provided with a copy of this Policy and will be advised of its importance. This Policy will be brought to the attention of all Insiders on an annual basis.

**14. Potential Civil, Criminal and Disciplinary Action**

Each person is individually responsible for complying with the securities laws and this Policy, regardless of whether the Company has prohibited trading by that person or any other Insiders. Assuming the absence of undisclosed Material Information, as a general rule, the safest period for Insider trading is within the first ten trading days following the end of a blackout or suspension period. In order to ensure compliance with Insider trading regulations, Company Insiders are required under this Policy to wait a minimum of 48 hours after the end of the Blackout Period to begin trading Company securities.

An Insider who violates this Policy or U. S. insider trading or tipping laws may face disciplinary action up to and including termination of his or her employment with the Company without notice. The violation of this Policy may also violate certain securities laws. If the Company discovers that an Insider has violated any securities laws, it may refer the matter to the appropriate regulatory authorities, which could lead to penalties, fines or imprisonment.

Insiders may also be liable for improper transactions by any person (commonly referred to as a "tippee") to whom they have disclosed previously undisclosed Material Information, or to whom they have made recommendations or the Company's expressed opinions on the basis of such Material Information about trading securities.
