Due to the unsure legalities attached to the sale of Marijuana products, the majority of legal dispensaries across the licensed states within the US are denied the ability to process regular cards, thereby limiting the purchase of the products to a "cash-only" operation.

To avoid these legal and financial tangles, Cal-Bay reached at a letter of Intent with an established US Merchant Processing company for the creation and production of the CB Green Card.

The pre-paid gift and loyalty program charge card will be established using a closed loop network, which is intended for use with Legal Dispensaries by way of an exclusive Cal-Bay Financial Services processing terminal which will allow a seamless transaction for the customer’s purchase.

Additionally, it will create a full report for the dispensary and transfer of funds from the sales to their US banking institution, in addition to showing a full sales reporting operation to the tax collectors and at the same time legally processing the funds to the dispensary’s bank.
