Mobiqa's Mobile Tickets Save Over 7,000 Miles of Paper for the Travel and Entertainment Industries

EDINBURGH, Scotland, April 20, 2010--     Mobiqa, a leading supplier of content optimised for mobile devices,
celebrates Earth Day 2010 by helping its clients save over 7,000 miles of
paper - 10 times the length of Britain - with paperless ticketing technology.

    Mobiqa specialises in the worldwide delivery of barcoded tickets to
mobile phones and also in building mobile websites. Mobiqa's clients include;
the world's biggest airlines, entertainment ticketing providers, and cinema
operators. Paper savings offered by the mobile channel are significant with
Mobiqa alone set to save over 270,000 miles of paper in the next five years -
the equivalent of 10 times the circumference of the earth.

    Nick Rankin, CEO of Mobiqa, comments: "We are really proud to support the
green credentials of our clients. Consumer adoption of mobile ticketing has
helped many of our customers achieve considerable environmental savings."

    Transport and entertainment organisations have chosen Mobiqa's paperless
technology to offer a greener alternative to paper tickets while enhancing
the consumer experience with a more convenient ticket delivery channel.
Consumers purchasing tickets for a flight or event can opt for mobile
delivery upon which, an SMS web-link or Email web-link is sent to their
mobile. By accessing their ticket through this link, they are able to bypass
check-in or box-office queues and head straight to their boarding gate or
event where the barcode on their phone is scanned and validated.

    Mobiqa continue to lead the way in mobile ticket technology and are a key
enabler of mobile ticket delivery which is forecast by Juniper Research to
reach 15 billion tickets by 2014. Mobiqa has experienced a 620% increase in
mobile ticketing transactions over the past 12 months.
