- Boost Customers Can Now Save Big Using Cellfire Mobile Coupons -

SAN JOSE, California - October 16, 2007 - Cellfire, Inc. has unveiled a partnership with Boost Mobile®, one of the fastest growing wireless services in the U.S, to provide mobile coupon and discount offers to the more than 4.5 million Boost customers nationwide.  Boost Mobile, which has strong appeal among today’s youth, selected Cellfire because it offers savings on many of the products and services its subscribers value.
 
"Targeted services that meet the specific lifestyle wants and needs of our customers at an affordable price have contributed to our industry-leading growth," said Courtney Bunn, senior product marketing manager, Boost Mobile.  "And easy access to free mobile coupons from Cellfire provides our customers with additional opportunities to save and is yet another example of a value-added application that helps our customers do more with their Boost phones."

Cellfire makes it easy for Boost users to find and use valuable deals delivered directly to their wireless handsets.  To access Cellfire, Boost customers visit Web Home, select Surf the Web, and select Cellfire Coupons.  Boost customers also can download Cellfire’s application to their mobile phones (http://www.cellfire.com/help/download/?compatible=t) to receive a wide range of mobile coupons for participating national and local merchants.  Cellfire’s discount offers are automatically uploaded to Boost Mobile phones, enabling customers to access instant savings.

"Boost Mobile understands there is a significant opportunity in reaching the young people who use their mobile phones just like a wallet," said Brent Dusing, CEO, Cellfire.  "By being on deck, Boost Mobile customers can easily and quickly start saving on their favorite products and services from national and local merchants."

Cellfire is the only nationwide mobile coupon and discount offer service.  Cellfire automatically delivers savings directly to consumers via their mobile phones, and provides frequently updated discounts specific to their geographic area.  Unlike text-based offers, Cellfire’s application-based service enables consumers to easily store, search and use many discounts across multiple merchants and locations.

Cellfire’s growing list of participating merchants include Domino’s Pizza, Hardee’s, Hollywood Video, T.G.I. Friday’s, 1-800-flowers.com, Virgin Megastores, Taco Bueno, Wienerschnitzel and numerous local merchants across the US.
