Universal Express Expands Innovation With Touch Screen Terminal

Universal Express Inc. (OTCBB: USXP), announced today that its subsidiary Universal Cash Express, a leader in the prepaid industry has started the rollout of its newest product. The new UCE Touch Screen Terminal offers bill payment, check verification, wireless from all major carriers, long distance, gift cards, debit cards and a major floral program all deployed through one Terminal. This new "user friendly" Touch Screen Terminal is being deployed into the UniversalPost Network of postal stores.

"The new UCE Touch Screen Terminal unleashes the power and potential of our existing prepaid product catalog. Now, people who are at one of our retail locations will no longer need to go to a Western Union or Money Gram to wire funds into their debit account. With the UCE terminals, we offer a much more convenient load and reload option. We have the channel in place, and now the new UCE Touch Screen Terminal allows us to effectively tap the myriad of additional sales opportunities effortlessly for the store owner because of its self explanatory 'user friendly' screen," said Brett Hudson, President of Universal Cash Express.

"We especially like the UCE Touch Screen Terminal's electronic media screen saver displays which gives us the added ability to market and brand our services or third party vendors products to consumers while they're at the checkout counter," continued Brett Hudson.

"The bill payment system is state of the art. It allows consumers to pay their bills directly on a daily, weekly, monthly, or semi-annual basis. This is a convenient, automated way for people to pay a wide variety of bills," concluded Brett Hudson.

"The main reason we are deploying this terminal is that it offers a system that has a proprietary terminal tied to an internally-developed data center. The turnkey nature of the terminal allows us to grow fast. To start with, we will recruit from our pool of 8,000 retailers and hope to assemble a very strong retail prepaid network," said Richard A. Altomare, Chairman & CEO of Universal Express. www.uni
