Commenting on the expansion Nuheara CEO, Justin Miller, said:

“As an emerging business, it is critical that we continue to expand our retail reach and purchase options. As such, even with our ever-expanding global brick and mortar in store retail presence and our online transaction portals such as Amazon, they still only provide us with limited global geographical retail reach. We are excited to be able to offer customers located just about anywhere in the world the opportunity to purchase IQbudsTM in one of seven major currencies, all with the ease of direct shipment. Furthermore, for customers in Australia and the US, we now provide the option of installment based payment plans that allow the convenience of 4 equal monthly payments. Based on success, we have a strategy in place for customers in other countries to be provided with the same installment plans.”
