Yocale.ai Inc. has received approval for its Class A common shares to trade on the OTCQB Venture Market in the United States, effective October 21, 2026, under the symbol “YOAIF.” The move marks a significant expansion of the company’s investor base, allowing U.S. investors to participate in the growth of an AI-powered operating system designed for the beauty and wellness industry. The shares continue to trade in Canada on the Canadian Securities Exchange under “YAI” and in Germany on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under “K4G.”
The OTCQB listing is more than a procedural milestone; it represents a strategic effort to broaden liquidity and visibility for Yocale.ai. The OTCQB Venture Market, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., serves early-stage and developing U.S. and international companies. To maintain quotation, companies must stay current in their reporting and complete an annual certification with OTC Markets Group. For Yocale.ai, meeting these requirements signals a commitment to transparency and regulatory compliance, which can enhance investor confidence.

“With our shares trading in Canada, Germany and now on OTCQB in the United States, investors across these markets can participate in Yocale.ai’s growth,” said Aydin Asli, Chief Executive Officer. “We remain focused on building the platform that beauty and wellness businesses use to manage their operations, while keeping shareholders informed as we execute our strategy.” The company’s existing U.S. quotation transitions to OTCQB under the same trading symbol, and existing shareholders do not need to take any action.
The implications of this announcement extend beyond mere trading convenience. By listing on OTCQB, Yocale.ai gains access to a larger pool of potential investors, including U.S. institutional and retail participants who may have previously been restricted from trading on lower-tier markets. Increased liquidity can also lead to more efficient price discovery and potentially a lower cost of capital for future financing rounds. For a growth-stage technology company like Yocale.ai, which has built its platform over more than a decade and supports thousands of service providers across 22 countries, a U.S. listing provides a springboard for broader market awareness and credibility.
Yocale.ai operates as an AI-powered operating system for the beauty and wellness industry, serving businesses from independent salons and med-spas to multi-location enterprise wellness brands. Its platform combines vertical SaaS, embedded fintech, data intelligence, and AI automation to unify customer acquisition, bookings, payments, client engagement, and day-to-day operations. The company is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, and its technology has supported service providers across more than 22 countries. More information about the company can be found at www.yocale.ai.
The OTCQB approval comes at a time when investors are increasingly seeking exposure to AI-driven vertical software solutions. Yocale.ai’s presence on OTCQB may attract attention from U.S. investors looking for opportunities in the beauty and wellness technology sector. However, as with any forward-looking information, the company cautions that actual results may differ materially due to risks related to competition, customer adoption, product development, and reliance on third-party payment providers, among others. The company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking information except as required by applicable securities laws.
For Yocale.ai, the OTCQB listing is a clear signal that it is positioning itself for a more prominent role in the North American capital markets. By aligning its trading venues across three major markets, the company is making it easier for investors to trade its shares during local market hours and in local currencies. This could lead to increased trading volumes and a more diversified shareholder base, which are often prerequisites for further growth and potential up-listing to a senior exchange in the future.
