Re:

CIK No. 0000900475
Mr. Nalbantian:
The following responses
address the comments of the Staff (the “Staff”) as set forth in your letter dated November 10, 2022 (the “Comment Letter”)
relating to the above-referenced Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed November 1, 2022 (the “S-1”)
by SmartCard Marketing Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). The numbers of the responses in this letter correspond
to the numbers of the Staff’s comments as set forth in the Comment Letter.
Amendment No. 2 to Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1
submitted November 1, 2022, 2022
XPay Worldwide Overview, page 13
1. We note your response to comment 1 and revised disclosure. Please augment
your introductory paragraph before the table to explain what the table represents. As one example only, your new disclosure states “The
column on the right specifies the methods of contact for card payments.” However, reading the chart itself the second column
seems to be a description of each license/certification rather than a method of contact for card payments. Please also draft your disclosure
in a manner to avoid industry terms or jargon so a reader not familiar with your industry can understand your disclosure such as your
reference to “Terminal Management Host Switch,” which is not defined.
Response
We have revised the S-1 to augment our
introductory paragraph before the table to explain what the table represents, accordingly.
General
2. We note you response to comment 3 and your disclosure of gross profit on
page 84 and F-15. It appears that your gross profit is not computed with a fully-burdened cost of revenues. Please remove your disclosure
of gross profit, or tell us why it is appropriate.
Response
We have revised the S-1 to remove the (i)
“gross margin” line items from the tables on pages 84 and F-15, and (ii) sections referencing “gross margin” on
pages 84 and 85, accordingly.
***
The Company hereby acknowledges that:
● The
Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing;
● Staff
comments or changes to disclosure in response to Staff comments do not foreclose the Commission
from taking any action with respect to the filing; and
● The
Company may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the commission
or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
Please do not hesitate
to contact our attorney, Evan Costaldo, at 212-709-8333 if you have any questions or comments. Thank you.
Very truly yours,
