TIO Network kiosks to allow Arizona Public Service payments

October 31, 2005

PHOENIX, Ariz. - Arizona Public Service Company (APS), Arizona's largest electric utility, and Info Touch Technologies Corp., owners of the TIO Network, announced in a news release an agreement to enable APS customers to pay their utility bills in cash, through self-service automated ZapLink kiosks at more than 150 Circle K locations in the Phoenix area 24 hours a day. The kiosks are expected to be taking payments by early 2006.

Cash-preferred APS clientele will soon be able to conveniently and securely view their account balance or make a payment on their APS account. Payments are made by entering the cash directly into the ZapLink machine's cash acceptor. Once the cash is accepted, the ZapLink kiosk then uses an Internet link to update the customer account in real-time.

[Editor's note: Info Touch Technologies became Tio Networks in April 2006.]
