Nebula Brands, China’s first “Thrasio” launched on Amazon

Published

Traditional brick & mortar stores have been struggling for over a year since the beginning of COVID. While Amazon, just like its name, still maintains a prosperous vitality and has become a must-have store for consumers during the epidemic. Companies that sell primarily unbranded, well-reviewed products on Amazon marketplace are being bought by businesses created just to consolidate those Amazon sellers. These well-funded acquirers are called Amazon Aggregators and are committed to acquiring Amazon brands, conducting brand integration and helping portfolios achieve growth at a global scale. Up till now, Aggregators have raised over 6 billion U.S. dollars, and the leading company Thrasio has accumulated more than 1.75 billion U.S. dollars to deploy.

China is the most prominent supplier of Amazon sellers. Up till now, 63% of Amazon’s top sellers are from China, and a third of them are in Shenzhen. In 2019, Nebula Brands was established in Shenzhen, the most active city in China for cross-border e-commerce. Starting from a cross-border e-commerce fintech platform, Nebula has accumulated a deep understanding of Amazon’s business model based on its strong data processing and modelling capabilities. In 2020, Nebula launched the third-party brand acquisition business and is the first Chinese company to use the “Aggregation + Operation” model to conduct brand acquisition on Amazon.

The wave of Amazon store closures that began in April this year has dealt a heavy blow to some Chinese sellers who are accustomed to obtaining sales through illegal operational means. As Amazon imposes heavy measures against policy violators, incompetent sellers who rely on illegal tactics are quickly eliminated. Efficient brand management on Amazon will bring better products and shopping experiences to consumers. The Aggregators have overall better operational efficiency and product strategy, which would benefit Amazon and end customers in the long run.

“Nebula has a multinational management team with global vision and China-specific country knowledge. On day one, our strategy formulates around making Chinese brands on Amazon go international. We follow up closely with the needs of overseas consumers and leverage China’s supply chain advantages to tap the huge global consumer goods market.” Says William Wang, co-founder of Nebula Brands.

In January, Thrasio, a brand acquirer from the United States, announced its entry into China. Followed by dozens of other overseas third-party brand acquisition companies. Despite being well-capitalised and coming to China with strong momentum, overseas brand aggregators need to solve some big challenges. Identifying compliant and high-quality targets from thousands of native Chinese shops operating in a China-specific way would be a headache for any western business. Also, negotiating with smart Chinese businessmen and convincing them to sell the business would take more than a few phone calls from head offices across the Atlantic.

In the view of Nebula Brands, local knowledge is as important as the global perspective. It is critical to understand the mentality of Chinese sellers and establish an efficient local supply chain to accommodate and consolidate each business. Capital would accelerate the acquisition process but building a tailored ecosystem based on Amazon and China would be a threshold for any foreign business.

Developing an ecosystem to accommodate multi-brand and multi-channel Amazon businesses is a challenge. Nebula broke down the traditional e-commerce business and replaced each process with modularized teams, led by experts in each vertical. The acquired brands would get the best support to release the sales potential on Amazon and be redesigned and restructured to position for growth even beyond Amazon.

Nebula Brands is the first Amazon Aggregator in China market. It has a tracked record of serving thousands of Chinese brand sellers. Nebula’s cross border supply chain finance business help banks analyse the cash flow of Amazon businesses. The team has a strong data team consists of veterans from reputable banks and tech firms. Empowered by data analytics, the investment team can value the business value of a potential seller within 24 hours.

The team understands the needs of these potential sellers and established effective communication with relevant stakeholders. “Sellers are our strategic partners. We appreciate their sector knowledge and they love speaking with us. It’s like having a good friend who can offer help any time. They want to hear our opinion and we are happy to share the growth with friends.” Says William Wang.

Press Release

Vaiz introduces agile project management tools as teams leave Jira for simpler alternatives

Published

1 hour ago

May 19, 2026

By

Limassol, Cyprus – 19/05/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Vaiz, the Limassol-based maker of a unified workspace for tasks and documents, is putting its agile project management tools in front of teams that have adopted agile in principle but find themselves buried in the ceremony that comes with it. Seventy-four percent of organizations now run on agile or hybrid agile approaches, according to Digital.ai’s 18th State of Agile Report — but adoption and effectiveness are two different things. In 2026, the question is no longer whether agile matters. It is whether the tools teams use to run it are helping them ship faster or just making the process more visible.

The ceremony problem

Most agile tools were designed to manage agile processes: sprint boards, story point estimation, velocity charts, burndown reports, retrospective templates. The tools are thorough. They are also, for many small and mid-sized teams, exhausting. Configuring Jira to run a ten-person team requires the kind of admin investment that makes sense for a fifty-person engineering org. Running Scrum ceremonies across three different tools — a sprint board in one place, specs in another, retrospective notes in a third — means teams spend their energy on coordination instead of delivery.

Vaiz ships with a ready-to-use Scrum template that covers the full sprint rhythm out of the box: nine columns including a dedicated Ceremonies lane for planning, standups, reviews, and retrospectives, plus a Sprint Results area to keep outcomes visible across cycles. WIP limits on active stages prevent overload. Sprint Number, Estimated Time, and Logged Time fields let teams track capacity and spot the gap between planning and reality — without over-engineering the process. Engineering task categories cover Frontend, Backend, API, DevOps, UI/UX, and more. No admin required to get started. Teams comparing the two platforms directly can see a full breakdown at vaiz.com/compare.

Why agile teams are choosing Vaiz

Every task in Vaiz contains a native document editor capable of holding user stories, acceptance criteria, technical specs, and decision logs directly alongside the work. When a developer picks up a sprint item, the context is already there — no Confluence tab, no “where did we put that spec” in Slack. GitHub and GitLab integrations pull requests, branches, merge requests, and commits onto the task itself, so sprint traceability happens without manual status updates. The built-in AI assistant turns sprint goals into task breakdowns, drafts plans from briefs, and compresses long comment threads into action items the team can actually act on. For engineering teams working with AI-assisted development, Vaiz exposes a native MCP endpoint that lets Claude, Cursor, and other compatible assistants read and write directly into the workspace — no manual copy-paste between tools.

Development pace

Vaiz is on version 2.84 with regular releases since 2025, recently moving to a two-week release cycle. Releases in 2026 have delivered an improved UI, Slack integration, Cursor IDE support, and calendar integration. An iOS app is coming soon in Q2 2026.

Switching and pricing

Teams moving over from another tool can transfer boards, tasks, and history through Vaiz’s Migration Center, which currently handles Jira, Asana, Trello, YouTrack, Linear, and Notion in one click — with ClickUp, Monday, and Wrike on the way. The platform is free for teams of up to 10 users, with no credit card required. Paid plans are $5 per user per month for Pro and $9 per user per month for Premium. An on-premises Enterprise edition is available for organizations with data residency requirements. Every paid plan includes a 30-day free trial, and startups receive a 50% discount.

More information is available at vaiz.com.

About Vaiz

Founded in 2024 and based in Limassol, Cyprus, Vaiz Ltd builds a cloud-based work management platform that brings task boards, documents, and automation into a single workspace. The product is used by cross-functional teams at startups, game studios, product companies, agencies, and growing businesses, and holds a 4.8/5 average rating across G2, Trustpilot, Crozdesk, and SoftwareSuggest.

Nexcbit Announces Market Rewards for Traders and IBs

By

The multi-asset broker is raising the bar on trader incentives and partner earnings — giving every depositor an instant trading boost and paying Introducing Brokers among the most competitive rebates in the market.

Dubai, UAE, May 19th, 2026 — Nexcbit Market, a global multi-asset trading broker offering access to Forex, commodities, indices, and crypto CFDs, is drawing fresh attention from traders and affiliate partners alike following the launch of two standout programmes: a 15% deposit bonus on every deposit made into a live trading account, and an Introducing Broker (IB) commission structure paying up to $50 per lot — positioning the broker as one of the most rewarding platforms for both active traders and referral partners in today’s market.

15% Bonus on Every Deposit — Instantly Added to Your Trading Balance.Fund your account once or fund it again — the bonus applies every time, with no cap.

15% DEPOSIT BONUS: MORE CAPITAL, MORE OPPORTUNITY

Unlike one-time welcome bonuses that expire after a first deposit, Nexcbit Market applies a 15% trading bonus to every deposit a client makes. A trader depositing $1,000 receives an immediate $150 credit added to their trading balance — capital that can be deployed directly in the markets.

This ongoing structure benefits traders at every stage: beginners gain a larger starting buffer, while experienced traders scaling their positions can consistently amplify available margin without changing their deposit strategy. The bonus is designed to increase a trader’s staying power and reduce the impact of short-term volatility on their account.

The programme reflects Nexcbit Market’s core philosophy: reward loyalty, not just acquisition. Every deposit counts, and every trader benefits — not just new sign-ups.

IBs Earn Up to $50 Per Lot — One of the Highest Rebate Rates Available. Refer clients, earn every time they trade — with no ceiling on total commissions.

IB PROGRAMME: UP TO $50 PER LOT FOR INTRODUCING BROKERS

Nexcbit Market’s Introducing Broker programme is structured to attract serious referral partners — signal providers, trading educators, community managers, and affiliate marketers who bring active traders to the platform.

IBs earn up to $50 per standard lot traded by each referred client. With no cap on the number of referrals and no ceiling on total earnings, an IB with a strong network of active traders can generate substantial recurring income. Commissions are tracked transparently through a dedicated IB portal, with regular payouts and real-time reporting available.

The IB structure is built for professionals who want scalable, passive income tied to the trading activity of their network — not one-time referral fees that stop paying the moment a client signs up.

 

ABOUT NEXCBIT MARKET

Nexcbit Market is a globally accessible multi-asset broker offering CFD trading across Forex pairs, commodities, stock indices, and cryptocurrency markets, built for traders who value execution quality, transparent pricing, and a broker that actively invests in their success through ongoing incentives. The platform provides competitive trading conditions — including a 15% deposit bonus on every deposit — alongside a range of account types, multi-platform access, and a professional IB programme paying up to $50 per lot, making it a viable choice for both independent retail traders and institutional partners seeking a reliable execution environment.

99 App Opens Wait List for UK’s First Digital Neobank Built for Ethical and Sharia-Aligned Consumers

21-year-old Egyptian-British founder is positioning 99 App as more than a fintech, but rather as a movement

United Kingdom, 19th May 2026 —99 App today announced that it has opened the waiting list for customers who want to sign up for the United Kingdom’s first digital neobank that’s built simultaneously for ethical and Sharia-aligned consumers. Abdalla Lotfy, 99 App’s 21-year-old Egyptian-British founder, is positioning 99 App as more than a fintech, but rather as a movement. The product is a mobile-first current account with values alignment built into the core, including an integrated giving platform routed through registered UK charities and a screening engine that filters financial products on both ethical and Sharia criteria using the same database. It also provides Cashback, along with other features tailored to every segment from students to Gen Alpha.

“I did not originally set out to build a neobank. I started out reading philosophy,” explained Lotfy, who entered King’s College London at 16 and is now finishing his Master’s at Imperial College Business School. “Reading philosophy forced me to look at the systems I had been raised in, instead of taking them for granted. The more I read across psychology, economics, and the existential writers, the more I understood that a great deal of what is accepted as ordinary is the result of choices that benefit a small number of people at the cost of everyone else. With 99 App, we’re going to change this status quo.”

Unlike traditional banks, 99 App will not provide capital for industries that its customers would refuse to fund, e.g., industries that pollute and exploit people, weapons, etc. Instead, 99 App puts choice back in thecustomer’shands. 99 App recognizes that the ethical consumer and the Sharia-aligned consumer want the same thing for different reasons, and that the technology now exists to give it to them at the same time, in the same product.

Britain’s 31 million ethical and Sharia-aligned consumers finally have a serious challenger. The Arabic word Sharia (ﺔﻌيرﺷ) literally translates as “the path to the watering place.” It is a system of principles for living, not a body of mystical or secretive doctrine, and in the context of finance, it functions as a framework for distinguishing capital that builds from capital that harms. Ethicalfinance, drawn from a separate tradition rooted in cooperative and conscience-driven economics, reaches the same set of conclusions through a different route. The two frameworks overlap so closely on what they refuse to fund that 99 App applies a single screening engine to satisfy both audiences. Both frameworks reject three practices that mainstream neobanking treats as ordinary.

99 App has assembled an experienced management team. 99App’s CCO/MLRO is a former Vice President at Barclays. Its CTO is the current/former CTO of Papel, where he runs a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified payments infrastructure with 50+ engineers across Visa, Mastercard, and Troy schemes. Its Deputy CTO came from JPMorgan. Its advisor, Christophe Schwarz, was CTO of five fintechs and Managing Director at Barclays and UBS, and joined for zero cash compensation. 

 

About 99 Financial Technologies Ltd

99Financial Technologies Ltd is a London-headquartered fintech building the United Kingdom’s first digital neobank designed simultaneously for ethical and Sharia-aligned consumers.
