Kansas City, Kan., and New York, (June 22, 2009) Zave Networks, a leading digital incentive and information management company, and Scanbuy, Inc., a global leader in mobile barcode solutions, today announced a partnership to offer consumers an easier way to access discounts and coupons wherever they go. This partnership aligns Scanbuy's ScanLife™ mobile barcode technology that allows users to capture a 2D barcode via their camera phones, and Zavers, Zave Network's incentive network that replaces cumbersome paper coupons with an easy-to-use, data-rich platform digitally linking consumers, manufacturers and retailers. Together, the ScanLife and Zavers solution will make it easier than ever for consumers to find coupons, save them to their Zavers account and redeem them at participating retailers. Here's how it works:
"We are enabling the next generation of 'discounts and coupons.' There is enormous growth in the digital incentive market because consumers continue to look for easy and convenient ways to save money, and advertisers look for better measurement of promotional spending. Zavers is uniquely positioned to drive the industry forward," said Jonathan Bulkeley, Chief Executive Officer of Scanbuy. "We are impressed by how easy Zavers has made it for consumers to save using a variety of access methods, and the ScanLife application should add another simple way to access coupons from physical media." Zave Networks and Scanbuy Partnership Press Release/Page Two ScanLife can be used on more than 250 million mobile phones worldwide and supports all major operating systems, including Android™, BlackBerry™, BREW™, iPhone™ OS, Java™, Symbian™ and Windows™.

"We are excited about our partnership with Scanbuy because their innovative ScanLife solution makes it incredibly easy for consumers to access information and content wherever they find it," said Thad Langford, President and CEO of Zave Networks.
