TORONTO, Aug. 11, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BlueRush Inc. ("BlueRush" or the "Company") (TSX-V: BTV), an emerging personalized video Software as a Service ("SaaS") company, today announced that it has secured a three-year contract with a US-based multinational insurance provider, valued at approximately US$1,175,025.
"This is a significant win for BlueRush and IndiVideo, and a great way to start the 2021 fiscal year," said Steve Taylor, CEO of BlueRush. "We are committed to pursuing deals with higher recurring revenue, rather than service revenue, and the introduction of the self-serve capability to the IndiVideo platform continues to drive us towards subscription-based revenue.”
The contract includes a base annual subscription of US$250,000 and a consumption element based on the number of video views, with a minimum commitment from the customer on the video views. Recurring revenue, including the minimum subscription and consumption elements, is US$274,510 in year one, US$329,515 in year two and US$421,000 in year three. There is an additional annual services retainer of US$50,000 for advisory services BlueRush will provide to the customer.
Mr. Taylor continued, “We recently announced the release of our ‘Self-Serve’ capability, and this customer’s multi-year commitment to IndiVideo demonstrates the power of the self-serve functionality and solidifies our standing as a favoured solution for large and established brands to create secure and scalable personalized interactive video experiences.”
