ARLINGTON, VA – September 16, 2008 — buySAFE, Inc. (www.buysafe.com), the leading ecommerce trust and safety company, today announced that it has partnered with BPS Info Solutions, developers of UltraCart (www.ultracart.com), to make buySAFE available to thousands of merchants using the UltraCart ecommerce platform. Under the terms of the partnership, UltraCart's merchant customers are able to benefit from buySAFE immediately. buySAFE is now available as an embedded feature of the UltraCart platform that can be activated by merchant customers from their UltraCart configuration screen.

Merchants using UltraCart will be able to apply for buySAFE's Bonding Solution and add this functionality to their retail websites in minutes – at no cost to the merchant. The buySAFE Seal, displayed on Bonded Merchant websites, provides the only explicit, third-party endorsement of a merchant's trustworthiness and reliability. The buySAFE Seal is used by shoppers more than one hundred million times each month to identify Bonded Merchants helping Bonded Merchants to enjoy up to 15% higher conversion. The buySAFE Seal also indicates buySAFE backs this endorsement with a comprehensive bond guarantee which is available to shoppers during checkout.

"We are extremely excited to partner with UltraCart, a best-of-breed ecommerce platform," said Jeff Grass, buySAFE CEO. "An UltraCart merchant with $100,000 a month in sales has the opportunity to generate an extra $80,000 a year in revenue by activating buySAFE. We're thrilled to work with UltraCart and look forward to bringing a competitive advantage to their merchants."

UltraCart merchants will also have immediate access to buySAFE's Bonded Shopping Network (BSN), a performance-based advertising network that solves a fundamental problem of ecommerce by bringing together consumers in search of risk-free shopping with merchants that want a risk-free way to sell into this massive market. The BSN is comprised of the buySAFE Shopping Advisor™, a revolutionary desktop shopping application which makes shopping online completely safe and secure, buySAFE's own shopping portal (www.buysafeshopping.com), and several other popular Internet shopping destinations.
