E-DEBIT GLOBAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES THE ISSUANCE OF STANDARDS COUNCIL OF CANADA ITS DESIGNATED ISSUER IDENTIFIER NUMBER


Calgary, Alberta – E-Debit Global Corporation (“E-Debit”) announces today it has received its Issuer Identification Number (IIN), previously referred to as Bank Identifier Number (BIN) as well its Registered Application Provider Identifier (RID Number) from the Standards Council of Canada, the Canadian ISO/IEC 7816-5 registration authority.   

Management’s Commentary:

“The Standards Council of Canada has designated “629992” as E-Debits ISO Registered Issuer Identification Number (“IIN” or “BIN”) through its wholly owned subsidiary Westsphere Systems Inc. (“WSI”)” said Sonja Dreyer, WSI’s Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.

Basically the IIN or BIN is the numbering system for our Card Products, both debit and credit, familiarly recognized with card products that have historically been processed utilizing a magnetic stripe (“Mag Stripe”) on the back of the card, with Personal Identification Number security (“PIN”) or signature verification, while the RID number is for our Chip encrypted card Products.”

 “E-Debit intends to be a forefront of enhanced carp product security in our card product development in order to meet the rapid growth within the “On-Line” and alternative payment service sector, which we are currently experiencing this holiday season and to which we feel    E-Debit has significant opportunity” added Ms. Dreyer.
