(firmenpresse) - PALO ALTO, CALIFORNIA and CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 12/22/15 -- Risk Management & Payment Processing specialist ("Vogogo") (TSX VENTURE: VGO) today announced a formalized partnership with CBW Bank.

In simple terms, via this partnership, Vogogo clients have effective access to the world's largest financial market. This program allows us to grow our business both with our crypto-focused clients and with traditional clients; it's very effective for any qualified business looking to gain reliable access to the US financial networks in a highly secure and compliant fashion."
