PERTH AMBOY, N.J., Sept. 13, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- U.S. Starcom (Pink Sheets:USTA) announced today that it has signed a joint venture agreement with CC Coupon, a subsidiary of CommerceTel, to establish an entity that would utilize the U.S. Starcom distribution network and its product development resources combined with the proprietary technology known as CC Coupon.
"We feel this is a significant event for both companies," said John DiDomenico, President of U.S. Starcom. "CC Coupon's patented technology allows redeemable coupons to be delivered and be part and parcel of any prepaid card offering. Imagine buying a discounted health care card, or pre-paid calling card for $5, and having coupon for air travel on a major airline worth $50 as a bonus. We see huge value added to our product line in the fourth quarter and beyond," said Mr. DiDomenico.
