CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - April 11, 2011) - Poynt Corporation ("Poynt Corp." or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:PYN), a leading provider of mobile local search services, today announced an agreement with Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile USA, to preload the Poynt Application ("Poynt") on prepaid smartphones that run on the Sprint Nationwide Network. The first device with Poynt preloaded was the Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V, which debuted earlier this year. Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile are two of Sprint's prepaid brands.

Poynt is a convenient and timesaving GPS-enabled mobile application that connects consumers to local businesses, events, restaurants, movie theaters, gas prices and weather information at the moment they are looking to buy or acquire products or services. Poynt provides consumers the ability to move beyond discovery of their local area to view movie trailers and reviews, buy movie tickets, click-to-call businesses, get directions, browse listing websites and read reviews and book dining reservations.

"The popularity Poynt has already achieved with users on BlackBerry smartphones and on Android devices will be greatly enhanced by the ease of discoverability that this preload agreement provides," said Andrew Osis, CEO, Poynt Corp. "Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile are two of the most popular prepaid brands in the United States and we are confident this agreement will result in strong user acquisition and retention for both of them."

Poynt is available as a free download to users in Canada, the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain and Australia for BlackBerry® smartphones and for iPhone and iPod Touch, Android and Window Phone 7 devices from the respective App Stores. Poynt is also available via Over the Air download at m.poynt.com.
