Tre@SureNET Adds Interactive Online Catalogs to Electronic Commerce Design/Marketing Service

iCat AND Tre@SureNET MAKE IT EASIER FOR MERCHANTS
TO OFFER INTERNET-BASED CATALOG SHOPPING

January 31, 1997 -- Alpharetta, GA -- Tre@SureNET LLC., a developer of Internet on-line commerce solutions, announced today a new electronic commerce design/marketing service that makes it easy for merchants to offer Internet-based catalog shopping. Tre@SureNET and iCat Corporation have entered into a strategic iCat Commerce Provider (iCP) partnership agreement that will allow Tre@SureNET to extend its Web design services to support iCat's flagship product, iCat Electronic Commerce Suite. This new service extends the company's Business to Electronic Commerce design/marketing service, which provides merchants with a complete, end-to-end Internet commerce solution including secure credit-card transactions.

To facilitate its interactive online catalog creation capabilities, Tre@SureNET is partnering with iCat Corporation, a leading electronic commerce and catalog creation company. Tre@SureNET will offer its customers design/marketing support for the iCat Commerce Publisher by giving access to the iCat Commerce Exchange database server. This gives merchants the ability to create and offer powerful interactive catalogs on the Internet by providing templates for both catalog pages and data-entry forms, built-in support for secure transactions, and a wide range of reports for the merchant.

"Combining powerful catalog creation capabilities with Tre@SureNET's Web Design Service gives merchants the resources necessary to establish and maintain a successful electronic commerce catalog Web site," said Karl Chu, Representative of Tre@SureNET. "While a great deal of industry discussion has focused on discrete tools, merchants are demanding a complete solution. They want electronic commerce solutions to be easy, integrated, and cost-effective. And that is exactly what Tre@SureNET's Commerce Design/Marketing Service delivers. With a simple-to-use, single-source electronic commerce design/marketing solution, we expect to attract a whole new class of merchants to the Internet."

"There are significant demands for a comprehensive electronic commerce design/marketing solution," noted Craig Danuloff, President of iCat Corporation. "Many merchants simply don't have the resources to maintain an electronic commerce-based web site. As one of main Web site design/marketing service providers in Atlanta, Tre@SureNET is very well positioned to accommodate this growing community of merchants who recognize the advantages of providing products and services to a worldwide customer base utilizing the Internet. With today's partnership, Tre@SureNET and iCat are making interactive catalog shopping via the web easier than ever."
