PREPAYD INC. TO EXPAND INTO THE PREPAID WIRELESS PHONE MARKET AS A NATIONWIDE WIRELESS SERVICE PROVIDER AND HAS ACTIVATED ITS FIRST MOBILE DEVICE

PrepaYd, Inc. (PPDC:P.K.) which recently changed its name from Prepaid Card Holdings, Inc. for business expansion plans announced today it has expanded into the Prepaid Wireless Industry and intends to offer Mobile Devices and Prepaid Wireless services through its wholly owned subsidiary PrepaYdSM Wireless, Inc.

“We began issuing Prepaid Debit Cards in February 2008 and exclusively focused on the now Hyper Growth General Purpose Reloadable Prepaid Debit Card market. We recognized early on, our target demographic using our prepaid debit cards tend to also use prepaid Mobile Phone Services. PrepaYd Wireless plans to launch by offering its existing and new PrepaYd Debit Cardholders Wireless services at discounted rates,” stated Rick Galasieski, Senior Vice President of PrepaYd Inc.

PrepaYd Wireless is a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) that intends to begin offering Mobile Phones and Wireless Services in September or October 2011. Prepaid Wireless Services include voice, data, and SMS services to consumers on a non-contract basis. PrepaYd Wireless activated its first Mobile Device powered by the Google Android Operating System. The Android Market lets consumers download thousands of mobile apps including Mobile Banking and Mobile Payment applications. PrepaYd Wireless intends to offer phones that will be enabled for using Mobile Financial Service applications for mobile banking and mobile payments. Recent developments of mobile wallets let consumers use Mobile Devices to make contactless NFC Payments at thousands of participating locations.

“The development of mobile wallet applications such as the Google Wallet turns mobile devices into financial instruments for making purchases without the presence of a prepaid, credit, or debit card. There is a much larger picture here than just offering prepaid wireless services. Our long term plan is for our mobile phones to become virtual mobile wallets earning us multiple revenue streams,” stated Josh Berman, Vice President of PrepaYd Wireless.
