Surgepays is trading 33.5% up at $0.19 after announcing a September 17, 2026 non-binding letter of intent for a smartphone rent-to-own joint venture with LowWeeklyPayments.

  • Surgepays would own 51% and manage the venture.
  • It already has more than 100 dealers onboarded and targets 500 locations by year-end.
  • The agreement remains non-binding, with no assurance it will be completed; broader markets are sharply higher, supporting risk appetite.
