Spring Internet World 2000

CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 10, 2000

In a follow up to a flurry of more than 35 wireless customer and partner announcements last week at Internet World, 2000, Everypath announced that C/Base today joined the mobile Internet revolution by announcing the future availability of a wireless version of Webcertificate.com, the first and only instant online gift certificate good at every online merchant, on the Palm VII.

Users will now be able to spend, send and receive Webcertificates even when they are traveling and far away from a desktop PC. The new Web site is being mobilized by Everypath Corporation of Santa Clara, Calif.

The wireless service will be available to current and prospective customers beginning in May 2000, and will be accessible from any Palm VII by pointing the device's browser to www.webcertificate.com. In addition, the site will soon be enabled for access from other wireless services such as Sprint PCS, AT&T Wireless, various two-way paging devices and others.

"Everypath demonstrated that they could mobilize our Web site rapidly and yet still maintain the integrity and security of our Web site," said Matt Gillin, co-founder, president and CEO of C/Base. "We also chose Everypath because they offered access from a number of wireless devices and access to key merchant sites where Webcertificate.com users have shown a propensity to shop. In addition, we were impressed with Everypath's ability to truly replicate the user experience we offer on our site in a way most appropriate to a very small screen."

"We are very pleased to announce C/Base as one of our charter customers," said Everypath Chief Marketing Officer Marcia Kadanoff. "By partnering with Everypath, C/Base's Webcertificate product becomes the ideal last-minute gift for the wireless generation, enabling gift-givers and gift-recipients the flexibility to send, receive and spend Webcertificates from virtually anywhere."

Launched in November of 1998, the Webcertificate product is the only universally accepted online gift certificate that can be sent to anyone with an email account and can be used instantaneously. Although typically sent between friends and family, Webcertificates are also utilized by leading corporations as promotional incentives and employee rewards. The gift can be personalized to fit the gift occasion or the recipient. Customer service representatives are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
