China’s first Amazon Aggregator Nebula Brands Held the First Business Event

Published

on

As the first Chinese Amazon Aggregator company, Nebula Brands successfully held its first sharing event on August 13 in Shenzhen, with key members from the investment team joining the event.

Speakers from the company talked about the unique business model and acquisition strategies of Nebula Brands and launched the specifically designed initiative, Project Star, for the benefit of Chinese Amazon sellers.

From “Made in China” to “Brands from China”.

Chinese Amazon brands enjoy exceptional advantages in supply chain and E-commerce, adding great impetus to the globalization of products made in China.  

Founded in 2019, Nebula Brands started as a financial service platform designed for Chinese Amazon sellers. As the business continued to grow, the star-up adopted the “Capital Acquisition + Brand Operation” model, which helped it successfully transformed into an Amazon Aggregator company.

Nebula in Chinese means星云(xīng yún), a place where new stars are produced from. For Nebula Brands, each potential Amazon seller can be seen as a new star, waiting to be found and connected.

With adequate capital raised this year, Nebula Brands has built a global team with offices in Beijing, Shenzhen and New York, making fast data-driven decisions to satisfy the need for acquisition in multi-channels, multi-brands and multi-sectors.

When it comes to brand operation, different teams of Nebula Brands work closely with each other, providing quality services in areas like marketing, operations, product development, promotions, supply chain management and customer relationship management. The goal is to constantly upgrade brand strategies and operations, create a diversified company that can empower more sellers, and build a brand matrix for the global markets.

Nebula Brands Acquisition Process Walkthrough

In the event, Nebula Brands shared what they are looking for when evaluating a company for potential acquisition. Their main targets are great Chinese Amazon brands with durable consumer goods and of long-term value. In addition, those Chinese brands need to have a high and stable Amazon ranking in its category, with over 4.0 stars rating and 90% good reviews as well as an annual profit of more than $200,000. It is also preferable if the products have a potential for selling in multi-channels and multi-markets without being influenced by the economic environment. In the post-pandemic era, Nebula Brands favors products under categories like Sports and Outdoors, Kitchen and Dining, Pet Supplies, Tools and Homes, etc.  

What makes Nebula Brands different from other acquires is that the company’s decision-making and deal-making are more agile than those of overseas buyers who are active only in their home market. From start to deal, Nebula Brands can acquire a brand in as short as 25 days. In the event, Nebula Brands provided an in-depth analysis of the local advantages that Chinese aggregators have in acquiring Amazon brands. For example, local experts in China know the Chinese sellers better, resulting in more efficient communication and in-depth understanding of the product. The Chinese acquisition team can complete quality acquisitions as fast as possible. This also gives Chinese brands a chance to better tell their own stories in the global market.

Project Star Unveiled with Premium Service.

Nebula Brands hopes that all Chinese sellers on Amazon can find suitable acquisition companies similar to Nebula Brands, which boasts both tailored acquisition approaches and best-in-class operational capabilities. So they can keep the ownership of more potential brands at home and build real Chinese brands with global vision.

Nebula Brands launched Project Star designed for the first batch of acquired Amazon sellers. They will be given more recourses and tailored service from world-class experts in Nebula Brands. The local supply chains expertise and data-driven decision model will help the potential brands improved in leaps and bounds.

In the Project Star, what those selected Chinese sellers will get includes but not limited to traffic boost, celebrity endorsement, new product R&D, supply chain upgrade, shared revenues, etc. Sharing the equity return of this fast-growing company and trading its stock options at lower prices is another bonus for them. Also, Amazon sellers acquired under the Project Star initiative can applied to be the brand consultant to further enhance their influence in the market and can be paid for providing branding ideas and insights.

Sellers that still got unsold services in Amazon will get from Nebula Brands credit loan with below-market interest and support at cost price from professionals in teams such as marketing, operation, supply chain, IT and legal affairs.

The first sharing event has come to an end, but this is just the beginning of Nebula Brands. With the vision of empowering brands with expertise in the Chinese market and supply chain, Nebula Brands is more than excited for what the future holds. So come and join the adventure with this fast-growing Amazon aggregator!

Cryptorefills launches x402 payments for AI agents, publishes agentic commerce reference

Published

on

USDC payments on Base for AI agents at checkout, alongside open-source documentation of how merchants run agent-driven commerce.

Amsterdam, May 11th 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, 15:00 CEST. Cryptorefills has enabled x402 payments at checkout, allowing AI agents to pay for gift cards, mobile top-ups and eSIMs using USDC on the Base network. The protocol, developed by Coinbase and Cloudflare, lets autonomous software settle stablecoin transactions programmatically. Cryptorefills has also published an open-source operations reference for the merchant operations layer of agentic commerce.

x402 lets a software agent receive an HTTP 402 Payment Required response from a merchant, settle the requested amount in stablecoin, and complete the transaction in a single automated exchange. For Cryptorefills, checkout becomes a programmable endpoint that agents can call directly.

The x402 launch adds a second agent-payment rail to the platform. Cryptorefills released its Model Context Protocol server in October 2025, allowing agents to discover products, build orders, and complete purchases through MCP. x402 addresses a different pattern: the agent calls a Cryptorefills endpoint, receives payment terms, settles in USDC, and completes the request in one round trip. The two rails serve different agent contexts and run in parallel. 

“We shipped x402 and open-sourced our merchant operations work in the same week on purpose. One is a payment rail, while the other is what a merchant needs around it to accept agent traffic. Agentic commerce is happening, and very little about the second part has been written down,” said Massimiliano Silenzi, CEO of Cryptorefills. “We’ve been running stablecoin checkout since 2018, and a lot of what we learned there carries over. We chose to publish what we’ve learned and continue building the rest openly.”

The reference repository, available at github.com/Cryptorefills/agentic-commerce, covers the operations surface that surrounds the protocol stack. Topics include catalogue discovery for agent buyers, settlement reconciliation across chains, quote-and-pricing handling, and delivery confirmations. Documentation is released under CC0; example code is Apache 2.0.

“In the repository we just open-sourced there are nine playbooks, the TypeScript schemas behind them, and five runnable examples. Two of them connect to our live MCP and x402 endpoints, so a developer can clone the repository and watch the agent-merchant exchange execute against production,” said Simonluca Landi, CTO of Cryptorefills.

Cryptorefills serves AI agents through three of the field’s emerging standards: MCP for context, Agent Skills for capability publishing, and x402 for stablecoin settlement. 

About Cryptorefills

Cryptorefills enables people in over 180 countries to spend cryptocurrency on everyday products and services. Categories include gift cards from over 6,600 brands, mobile top-ups across 600 operators, eSIMs, flights across 300 airlines, and stays at over 1 million hotels and properties. The platform supports stablecoin checkout across Base, Ethereum, Tron, Solana, Polygon, and other major networks, alongside Bitcoin and Lightning. It is among the first ecommerce companies to integrate AI-agent payment standards including MCP, Agent Skills, and x402.

Operating publicly since 2018 and headquartered in Amsterdam, Cryptorefills is a member of the Holland Fintech Association and Blockchain Netherlands Foundation.

Emicap, ICEnergy Forge Partnership to Accelerate European Carbon Capture Deployments

Published

on

Collaboration to focus on cost-effective capture and mineralization of biogenic CO₂ in Europe

Korea South, 11th May 2026, SEOUL, South Korea & KORTRIJK, Belgium – South Korea’s ICEnergy and Belgium-based Emicap have partnered to deploy cryogenic carbon capture systems targeting biogenic CO₂ in Europe. The partnership combines ICEnergy’s proprietary capture technology with Emicap’s cryogenic R&D and market access, supported by Emicap’s sister company, LM Engineering, which provides industrial engineering and execution capabilities.

Dr. Sungho Park(icenergy0805@gmail.com), CEO of ICEnergy, stated that he hopes this partnership will enable ICEnergy and Emicap to take a further step toward realizing carbon neutrality in the European market. The collaboration comes at a pivotal moment following the successful demonstration of ICEnergy’s technology. Amid a rapidly expanding European market for biogenic CO₂ solutions, early deployment is critical to secure access to high-quality feedstocks and permanent storage pathways.

ICEnergy recently demonstrated a 10 ton/day cryogenic carbon capture system for both onshore and marine applications. The system converts flue gas CO2 directly into dry ice, avoiding the need for conventional separation and liquefaction steps. A key feature of the electrically driven process is the internal recovery and reuse of cold energy. By recycling this energy, external demand is reduced and consumption is focused on CO₂ conversion, resulting in approximately 30% lower energy use compared to conventional systems, supporting a low lifecycle carbon footprint.

Emicap integrates cryogenic CO2 capture with downstream applications by coupling emission sources from Waste-to-Energy and biomass plants to the carbonation of alkaline industrial residues such as steel slags and fly ash. To ensure seamless site-specific deployment, Emicap applies its cryogenic R&D expertise to tailor ICEnergy’s capture systems for these European industrial plants. This integration enables the permanent storage of CO2 while upgrading captured emissions and industrial residues into supplementary cementitious materials for use in low-carbon construction. By operating across the full value chain, Emicap helps offset capture costs, reducing reliance on institutional subsidies.

The partners are targeting removal of up to 200 kilotons of CO₂ annually by 2035, positioning the collaboration to contribute to industrial-scale, net-negative emissions.
