TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Oct. 18, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- National Layaway Week, the week of October 3 – 9, 2011, not only marked the beginning of the holiday shopping season, it reaffirmed the need for an affordable payment option that is not based on credit. Online layaway company eLayaway.com, is spearheading the fight against debt by developing payment technologies that provide consumers with an easy to use layaway solution. While Walmart, Sears and Kmart offer in-store solutions, eLayaway provides consumers a more convenient way to plan and pay for their purchases online, without adding to their debt. National Layaway Week served as a milestone in the year to encourage and remind consumers to begin their shopping early. The Company has reported a triple digit increase in traffic and usage of their technology during the observance of National Layaway Week.

"Our mission is, and has always been, to help make purchases more affordable for the consumer by providing merchants with the tools they need to create and manage their own layaway programs," said Sergio Pinon, chief marketing officer and Founder of eLayaway. Mr. Pinon further commented, "National Layaway Week provided us the opportunity to promote the benefits of layaway and the values associated with living debt-free."

Additionally, adding to the recent traffic and usage increase, The TODAY© Show, an affiliate of MSNBC Interactive News LLC, featured eLayaway as a predominate player in the digital renaissance of layaway. The Company witnessed a significant increase in membership and purchases as a result of the national media attention; a clear indication that their service provides value and is satisfying consumer demand.
