Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
As previously reported in filings with the Commission, on January 8, 2015, with the approval of the Board of Directors of Sino Payments, Inc. (“Company”), the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of the outstanding share capital of a related company, TAP Services Inc., Philippines (“TSI”), to expand its business in the Asia Pacific region. The closing of the transaction is subject to, among other things, the receipt of all necessary governmental and other consents, including approval of regulatory authorities in the Philippines of an increase in the authorized capital stock of TSI. An investment deposit amounting to US$200,000 was paid to TSI in January 2015 as a good faith, earnest money payment on acquisition of TSI’s shares.
As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, this acquisition has not yet received the approval by the Philippine Securities & Exchange Commission of TSI’s increase in authorized capital stock and, consequently, the acquisition has not closed. While the Company anticipated that the transaction would be completed in the second quarter of fiscal quarter of 2016, this did not occur. The Company hopes, but cannot give any assurances at this time, that the required regulatory approvals will be received in fiscal year 2016. TSI has engaged other counsel to handle regulatory approval in the Philippines.

Auditor trail
Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On June 25, 2015, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Sino Payments, Inc., a Nevada company and the Registrant, (“Company”) approved a resolution to appoint AWC (CPA) Ltd. (“AWC”), 7th Floor, Nan Dao Commercial Building, 359-361 Queen’s Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong SAR, to replace its current certifying public auditor, Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC (“SGA”) of Salt Lake City, Utah. The engagement of AWC should be consummated on or prior to June 30, 2015. The Board decided to change certifying public auditor because SGA advised the Board that SGA did not wish to handle future audit work for Hong Kong SAR-based operations due to the cost and resource demands.
AWC has provided the Company with the required independent letter under Rule 3526 of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules.
SGA’s report on the financial statements for the transitional period of September 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013 and for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting, except that the report contained an explanatory paragraph stating that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Deal Flow
February 3rd , 2011 (Hong Kong) –
Sino Payments, Inc. today announced that it has executed a
$100,000.00 line of c redit note from long term partner, TAP Group, for the Hong Kong joint venture company, TAP ePayment Services Limited. According to the Hong Kong company registrar, 51% of the newly formed JV Company shares have been transferred to Sino Payments, Inc. TAP Group has already committed
$20,000.00 USD of which
$5,000 USD was received last week.
Liquidity Requirements
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have
substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.
Liquidity Requirements
On June 4, 2010, Sino Payments, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the "Company") entered into a Line of Credit Note (the "Note") with Moon Gate Limited. Under the terms of the Note, the Company may borrow, from time to time, up to the maximum principal amount of the Note, which is $150,000, for general working capital. The minimum advance under the Note is $1,000 and the interest rate of the Note is 8%. The Note contains customary events of default, including, among others, non-payment of principal and interest and in the event the Company is involved in certain insolvency proceedings. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company under the Note may be declared immediately due and payable. The Note is unsecured and all borrowings plus interest are due on demand.
Comments & Business Outlook
Sino Payments' President and CEO Matthew Mecke stated , "In addition to expecting our first revenue and merchant processing to occur in Q2 this year, we are building up quite a large amount of anticipated volume for future business. Although it may seem like we have been dormant for the last 2 fiscal quarters, our activity will soon bear fruit and my expectation is that we will generate sufficient revenue to be operating positive on a monthly basis before the end of this year 2010. Our sales pipeline is larger than we had anticipated as recently as the end of last year and we hope to soon make announcements related to the completion of a search for a qualified Sales Executive to help us drive even stronger growth than the heavy sales prospect growth we are now experiencing. Regional Asian physical retailers continue to be a focus for Sino Payments, in addition to these, we see strong potential in services to groups based in Japan, Europe, and others in Greater China with regional operations."
