Michael Hansen, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Ominto, stated, “The launch of the new VIP Lounge is consistent with the plans we announced when our new site was launched last May, to offer our global customer base a superior shopping and savings opportunity when they shop at DubLi.com. The VIP Lounge is designed to complement our Cash Back shopping with deep discounts on travel, leisure, local retail and dining discounts. We expect the new membership to drive increased VIP member penetration, which offers strong recurring revenues at solid margins. The enhanced benefit package included in the VIP Lounge offers thousands of dollars of value. The leading suite of features are available in one convenient location for our customers to shop, save and earn Cash Back making it unnecessary for them to shop anywhere else.”

Mr. Hansen continued, “Furthermore, the new VIP Lounge allows members an extra and unlimited 2% Cash Back on all purchases they make on the site outside the VIP Lounge as well to withdraw their available Cash Back in only 45 days. We aren’t aware of any faster payouts in the Cash Back industry. We believe the new VIP Lounge is an extension of the exceptional value proposition we offer our customers. We will continue to add a variety of other features over the coming months including up to 30% discounts at theme parks and leisure attractions worldwide.”
