ABOUT IN STORE MEDIA SYSTEMS:
In Store Media Systems is the manufacturer and operator of its patented,
in-store, closed-loop electronic consumer-interactive kiosk, the Coupon Exchange
Center(TM). In Store Media has also developed a proprietary in-lane, electronic
coupon clearing system. The In$taClearing(TM) will clear, right at checkout,
virtually all coupons distributed by manufacturers, replacing the current manual
clearing procedure which can take over 45 days. Both systems are designed to
operate in supermarkets and other retail locations across the country.
ISMS earns revenues from national packaged goods manufacturers who pay to have
their products promoted in the store where they are sold and to have their paper
coupons efficiently cleared right in the store where they are redeemed.
