Convenience Store Kiosks

Touchscreen kiosk terminals provide convenience payment and financial services options for Charlotte-area marketplace

Press Release

BURNABY, BC, May 10 /CNW/ - Info Touch Technologies Corp. (TSX-V: IFT - News) today announced the rollout of E-Wiz kiosks at participating Exxon-branded On the Run convenience stores in Charlotte, N.C. The self-service, cash-accepting electronic kiosks enable convenience store patrons to use cash to pay wireless, utility, cable and other bills, as well as purchase prepaid products and services. This expansion follows the successful launch of the E-Wiz program at Exxon-branded Tigermarket convenience stores in Memphis, Tenn., in 2004, and subsequently in Nashville, Tenn., in January 2005. It brings to 87 the number of E-Wiz kiosks providing non-banked U.S. consumers with secure, convenient and reliable access to cash based financial transactions.

E-Wiz terminals provide customers with convenient access to a wide variety of services, including but not limited to, bill payment, money transfer, pre-paid products and services, including long-distance, wireless top-up and mobile content.

With E-Wiz, ExxonMobil's On the Run convenience stores have truly positioned themselves as one of the most innovative providers of financial services in the convenience petroleum industry," stated Hamed Shahbazi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Info Touch. "On the Run convenience stores are certainly the most convenient location for the under-banked and time-challenged consumers."

"On the Run stores are all about safely providing our customers with fast, fresh and friendly service," said David Taylor, ExxonMobil Fuels Marketing. "The Info Touch electronic payment kiosks reinforce our delivery of fast and convenient service."

This newest expansion into North Carolina marks the first time E-Wiz terminals will be deployed to ExxonMobil On the Run franchisee locations.

"In addition to locating Info Touch E-Wiz kiosks in our company-operated convenience stores in Memphis and Nashville, Tenn., and now in the Charlotte area, we are excited about the deployment of this customer service to On the Run franchisees in Tennessee through Calloway Oil and Convenience Management Group, and Lee-Moore Oil and Propst Brothers, Inc., in North Carolina," said Taylor. "These installations represent the creative, aggressive and forward thinking of these companies."

Additional electronic-based payment options and financial services, such as such as money order purchases, money transfer services, prepaid credit and debit cards, check cashing, mobile content and prepaid pin based products, are also being considered for the Info Touch E-Wiz kiosks.
