PaySpot Introduces New Worldwide Brand ‘epay’

LEAWOOD, Kansas — July 16, 2009 — PaySpot, Inc., a subsidiary of Euronet Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ: EEFT) and a leading prepaid and payments processor in the U.S., today announced a new worldwide brand under the name epay.

Previously one of six brand names operating under the Prepaid Division of Euronet, PaySpot has rebranded with its sister prepaid companies to become the united global brand of epay. The epay Division is a leading worldwide payment and cash collection network and the largest processor of electronic mobile top-up transactions. As a single global division, epay will offer an extensive product portfolio including top-up or recharge services for prepaid mobile airtime, prepaid debit cards and e-wallets; bill payment services, road tolls and money transfer; and marketing and distribution services for gift cards, digital content and transport applications.

"The creation of the epay brand is a tremendous advantage for our customers," said Eric Mettemeyer, president of epay Americas. "Everything they loved about PaySpot is still here — from our best-in-class account management team to our nimble, entrepreneurial approach to business — but with our new resources as epay, we have extended our connections to offer cutting-edge products and services. As a result of our heightened collaboration as a division, epay Americas has already integrated with epay Germany''s platform to provide loyalty solutions to help retain valuable customers as part of its proprietary gift card offering."

Although the legal name for the U.S. company will continue to be PaySpot, Inc., epay is the new consumer brand name. All customer-facing materials are being transitioned in a multi-phase rollout which began with the launch of the new epay Division brand.
