Dubai, UAE, September 16th, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE – Zameera, a global ultra-luxury travel company curating extraordinary experiences for ultra-high-net-worth clients, and PayitFast, a digital payments platform, today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between Zameera and Verati, PayitFast’s dedicated lifestyle and concierge platform.

The partnership will bring a curated selection of Zameera’s ultra-luxury travel experiences to PayitFast members through Verati, giving members access to unique destinations and rare-access adventures. The initial selection includes some of Zameera’s most distinctive journeys, among them a private safari camp on Kenya’s Maasai Mara, a heli-skiing week beneath Iceland’s midnight sun, and a two-part journey through Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea coastline, each one reflecting the same standard of curation the Zameera name is built on.

The agreement reflects a broader shift in how premium digital platforms extend value to their members, moving beyond payments and rates toward genuine, curated access. Through Verati, PayitFast members can access something historically reserved for private banking relationships and personal introductions. For Zameera, it opens a new, high-intent distribution channel.

The companies will work together on platform integration, service onboarding, and joint marketing initiatives in the lead-up to launch, applying their respective standards to ensure a seamless client experience from discovery through to booking. The partnership will be delivered through Verati and made available to PayitFast members as part of the broader PayitFast ecosystem. 

“Ultra-luxury travel has always depended on trust, on knowing that what you are being offered has actually been vetted by someone with real judgment. Bringing our catalogue to PayitFast’s members means extending that same standard to a new audience of high-net-worth clients, exactly the traveler Zameera was built for,” said Sebastian Taskila, Chief Executive Officer of Zameera.

“At PayitFast, we are building an ecosystem that delivers meaningful value beyond payments. Through Verati, we are bringing together exceptional travel, hospitality and lifestyle partners to create unique experiences for our members. Zameera’s reputation for curating world-class journeys makes them a natural partner, and we are excited to make these experiences available to our growing member base,” said Catherine Thin Nwe Nyein, Group Partnership Director of PayitFast.

Both companies will share further details on member access and launch timing in the coming months as the integration progresses.

Rosh Pinna, Israel, September 16th, 2026, FinanceWire

• Letter of Intent (“LOI”) signed to cooperate in the evaluation, research support, localization, commercialization preparation and regulatory preparation of the PressureSafe medical device in Japan.
• Collaboration addresses a significant potential market need in Japan, which includes more than 36 million people aged 65 and older and approximately 8,000 hospitals, 13,600 long-term care facilities, and 16,000+ home-visit nursing stations.
• Strategic collaboration combines IR-MED’s infrared spectroscopy technology and proprietary algorithm with Dice Technologies’ capabilities in coordinating clinical evaluation, localization and regulatory preparation activities in Japan.
• Clinical research and evidence-generation activities are expected to include cooperation with the Department of Plastic Surgery at Kobe University, subject to required ethics review, institutional approvals and separate written arrangements.

IR-MED Ltd. (OTC: IRME) (the “Company” or “IR-Med”), developer of infrared spectroscopy-based medical device technology,, and Dice Technologies Co., Ltd., a leading Japanese healthcare digital transformation and medical IT provider, today announced the signing of a LOI. The LOI sets forth a framework for the parties to cooperate in the evaluation, research support, localization, commercialization preparation and regulatory preparation of IR-MED’s PressureSafe device for the Japanese market. Except for certain provisions relating to confidentiality and data protection, intellectual property rights, and device management, return and disposal, the LOI is not intended to create legally binding obligations between the parties.

Ultimately, the partnership is driven by a shared, transformative vision: Build pressure-injury prevention platform — device, AI, and EHR systems unified across hospitals, LTC, and home care nation wide

The parties intend to evaluate PressureSafe for use in hospitals, long-term care facilities and home healthcare settings in Japan, with a focus on supporting the assessment of early signs of pressure injuries.

PressureSafe is a medical device that uses infrared technology to support the assessment of early changes associated with pressure injuries and skin conditions. It provides real-time, on-site, non-thermal and blood-flow-related indicators intended to support, and not replace, the clinical judgment of nurses and physicians. PressureSafe combines infrared spectroscopy with a proprietary algorithm and is intended to support the assessment of early signs of pressure injuries.

Market Need in Japan

Japan is facing an unprecedented demographic and systemic challenge. With an aging population of 36.19 million individuals aged 65 and older (29.4% of the total population), national care expenditures have reached a record ¥11.94 trillion. Concurrently, the healthcare sector is bracing for a projected shortage of hundreds of thousands of nurses and approximately 300,000 care workers.

This convergence of an aging population and severe workforce shortages has driven a significant increase in the prevalence of pressure injuries—particularly in the rapidly growing home care sector, which reports a 1.93% prevalence rate. To address this, Japan requires scalable, technology-assisted care solutions across its approximately 8,000 hospitals (1.2 million beds), 13,600 long-term care facilities (1.0 million residents), and 18,042 home-visit nursing agencies.

A complementary Strategic Synergy

The collaboration between IR-MED and Dice Technologies represents a highly complementary alignment of technological innovation and domestic operational mastery.

• The Technology & Science Engine (IR-MED): IR-MED brings its proprietary PressureSafe sensors, predictive AI algorithms, and a foundation of global clinical data. The technology addresses the crucial “Layer 1” of early risk assessment—sub-epidermal tissue health—providing objective metrics to a field that has historically relied on subjective visual observation.
• The Domestic Commercial & Integration Leader (Dice Technologies): Dice Technologies will lead and coordinate the evaluation program in Japan. Leveraging an established nationwide footprint serving over 1,000 clinics well-distributed across Japan, Dice Technologies will support Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (“PMDA”) consultation preparation and regulatory communications in Japan.. Crucially, Dice Technologies bridges the gap between device and daily workflow by integrating PressureSafe data into its existing CareNest platform and domestic Electronic Health Records (“EHR” ), creating a seamless data flow from the hospital to the patient’s home.

Phased Rollout and Clinical Validation

The partnership will execute a highly structured, reverse L-shaped Go-to-Market strategy. The initial phase will focus on real-world evaluations in long-term care (“LTC”) and home-visit settings to generate clinical utility data and user feedback.

Simultaneously, the partners will advance rigorous clinical research and PMDA consultation to support the regulatory pathway for PressureSafe in Japan. This validation process will be bolstered by anticipated cooperation with Japanese clinical leaders, including the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Kobe University, subject to required ethics review, institutional approvals and separate written arrangements.

Executive Commentary

Ken Ishiga, President and Representative Director of Dice Technologies Co., Ltd., stated, “Japan’s care crisis cannot be solved with isolated tools. We must unify prevention, observation, and discharge support. By combining IR-MED’s extraordinary ‘sensing the invisible’ technology with our EHR integrations and CareNest platform, we are delivering on our shared vision to build a continuous, patient-centered care infrastructure that supports our overstretched healthcare workforce over the long term.”

“Entering the Japanese market requires more than just groundbreaking technology; it requires a deep integration into the local care ecosystem. In Dice Technologies, we have found the perfect partner,” said Dr. Yaniv Cohen, Interim CEO and Chief Scientific Officer of IR-MED. “Their expertise in medical IT, their impressive footprint serving over 1,000 care facilities, and their ability to navigate PMDA regulations make them the ideal catalyst for PressureSafe. Together, we are not just evaluating a device; we are working toward a new national standard for objective, preventive care.”
