FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 11, 2023

The Board of Directors of WETRADE GROUP INC. (the “Company”or “we” or “us”) is soliciting proxies to be used at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders following the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Meeting”). Distribution of this Proxy Statement and a Proxy Form is scheduled to begin on November 28, 2023.

ABOUT THE MEETING

Who Can Vote

Record holders of Common Stock of the Company at the close of business on November 24, 2023 (the “Record Date”), may vote at the Annual Meeting. On that date, 2,625,130 shares of Common Stock were outstanding. Each share is entitled to cast one vote.

How Can You Vote

If you return your signed proxy before the Annual Meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct. You can specify whether your shares should be voted for all, some or none of the nominees for director.

If a proxy is executed and returned but no instructions are given, the shares will be voted according to the recommendations of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR Proposals 1 and 2.

Revocation of Proxies

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by (a) delivering a written notice of revocation, (b) delivering another proxy that is dated later than the original proxy, or (c) casting your vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Your last vote will be the vote that is counted.

Vote Required

The holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote who are either present in person or represented by a proxy at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum for the Annual Meeting. As of November 24, 2023, there were 2,625,130 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. The presence, in person or by proxy, of shareholders entitled to cast at least 1,312,565 votes constitutes a quorum for adopting the proposals at the Annual Meeting. If you have properly signed and returned your proxy card, you will be considered part of the quorum, and the persons named on the proxy card will vote your shares as you have instructed. If the broker holding your shares in “street” name indicates to us on a proxy card that the broker lacks discretionary authority to vote your shares, we will not consider your shares as present or entitled to vote for any purpose.

At election for Directors every shareholder entitled to vote, in person or by proxy, shall have the right to vote at such election the number of shares owned by him for as many persons as there are Directors to be elected and for whose election he has a right to vote, or to cumulate his votes by giving one candidate as many votes as the number of such Directors multiplied by the number of his shares shall equal, or by distributing such votes on the same principle among any number of candidates. Subject to above, for Proposals 1 and 2, each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at the Annual Meeting. The affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares represented at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the shareholders of the company.

If you received multiple proxy cards, this indicates that your shares are held in more than one account, such as two brokerage accounts, and are registered in different names. You should vote each proxy card to ensure that all your shares are voted.

Expenses of Solicitation

The Company is making this solicitation and will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, and distributing these proxy materials and soliciting votes. Some of our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies personally, without any additional compensation, by telephone, mail or other means. Proxy materials will also be furnished without cost to brokers and other nominees to forward to the beneficial owners of shares held in their names.

Multiple Shareholders Sharing the Same Address

SEC rules allow for the delivery of a single copy of an annual report and proxy statement to any household at which two or more shareholders reside, if it is believed the shareholders are members of the same family. Duplicate account mailings will be eliminated by allowing shareholders to consent to such elimination, or through implied consent if a shareholder does not request continuation of duplicate mailings. Depending upon the practices of your broker, bank or other nominee, you may need to contact them directly to continue duplicate mailings to your household. If you wish to revoke your consent to house holding, you must contact your broker, bank or other nominee.

If you hold shares of common stock in your own name as a holder of record, house holding will not apply to your shares.

Director Independence

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Under the rules of Nasdaq, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the rules of Nasdaq require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent. Under the rules of Nasdaq, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Compensation committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act.

In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 and Rule 10C-1, a member of an audit committee or compensation committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

We have undertaken a review of the independence of each director and considered whether each director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. As a result of this review, we determined that each of Biming Guo, Yuxing Ye, Ning Qin representing our current Board of Directors, are considered “independent directors” as defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq.
