Info Touch to Expand Circle K ZapLinkSM Kiosk Network to 500 locations

-Info Touch and a leading US convenience store chain to expand Network for e-based product service category -


Burnaby, September 16, 2002


Info Touch Technologies Corp., the world's premiere clicks and mortar solution provider, (IFT: TSX Venture Exchange), is pleased to announce the deployment of up to five hundred (500) ZapLink SM public Internet access kiosks at selected Circle K-stores in Phoenix and Tucson Arizona, and Las Vegas, Nevada. The expansion of the ZapLink SM kiosk network will be phased in with the deployment of the next one hundred (100) terminals set to be completed by early 2003. This expansion signals a major achievement in the satisfaction of the success criteria following a one year field trial of 35 ZapLink SM kiosks at selected Circle K outlets in metro Phoenix, Arizona.

Through this trendsetting initiative, convenience store patrons will have access to a new and growing e-based product category delivered under the ZapLink SM brand in regional markets utilizing Info Touch's innovative technology solutions for the c-store industry. Info Touch generates revenues from the sale of machines in addition to a share of the revenues generated by various applications including:

- Bill payment
- Interactive mapping and directions
- Couponing
- Internet Payphone (VOIP)
- Public and private video and photo e-mail
- General purpose web and e-mail access

"Circle K's commitment to expand the ZapLink SM program, is an endorsement of our conviction that there is strong consumer demand for e-services at the street level using self-service automation. In fact, there is growing expectation within the retail industry that the recent proliferation of products and services at the street level will achieve widespread consumer acceptance rivaling that of the ATM industry", said Hamed Shahbazi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Info Touch.

Circle K is providing location services as well as marketing, logistics, and program support for this deployment.
