Single Touch Systems Inc. will demonstrate its Abbreviated Dial Code (ADC) and Mobile Coupon m-commerce platforms at Mobile Retail Experience. ADCs enable consumers to engage their mobile phones as proxy wallets or brand/retail environments by simply dialing short, branded phone numbers. ADCs are customizable for brands and retailers, create whatever reporting is required, and facilitate direct billing for all services. ADCs, mobile coupons and other platforms make Single Touch a leading mobile commerce company, linking wireless with on-line and brick and mortar business and leveraging the paradigm shift in how people use their mobile devices. Single Touch thereby drives revenue for operators, retailers and brands and streamlines shopping for the end user.

Single Touch Systems Inc. unveiled its extremely popular Mobile Dialing Code (MDC) platform--along with an impressive list of major brands, retailers and wireless carriers that are already using the system. Single Touch is the first US company to launch a carrier-agnostic MDC platform. The technology is currently on display at the Mobile Retail Experience booth (#841) and at the Mobile Marketing Association Pavilion (213-E) at this year's CTIA Wireless IT & Entertainment, taking place October 7-9 at the San Diego Convention Center. MDCs are short, branded phone numbers that function as a front door for consumers to step into the compelling world of m-commerce. The wildly popular #MTV, #BET, #TAXI and #WMT are all powered by Single Touch and have proven that consumers will flock to an easy and functional method to engage in mobile retail. Single Touch's state-of-the-art m-commerce engine effectively turns mobile phones into proxy wallets or brand/retail environments. The platform is fully customizable, creates whatever reporting is required and facilitates operator direct billing for all services. Macaluso will deliver a formal address on MDCs and their role in streaming media, messaging and mobile coupons as part of the Mobile Retail Experience (MRE), a series of live events demonstrating innovative mobile technology and applications at work in retail environments. MRE takes place in conjunction with CTIA; for more information please visit www.mobileretailexperience.com. Macaluso is scheduled to speak at 2:30 p.m. on October 7th in room 28C of the San Diego Convention Center. Single Touch is providing a Mobile Dialing Code #147 for CTIA and the MRE. After dialing #147, attendees will opt in to receive various messages about events and demonstrations at the show.
