Another City Switches to QI Water Control System

Another City Switches to QI Water Control System 


RICHMOND, British Columbia, March 11  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- QI Systems, Inc.
 (BULLETIN BOARD: QIIIF, TSX Venture Exchange: QII.U) , the industry leader in
smart card solutions, is pleased to announce that it will be delivering a Ranch
Water Control system during March to the City of Loveland, Colorado.  The
Loveland system is modeled on the Ranch Water Control installation done last
year just a few miles up Highway 287 in the City of Fort Collins.  Although the
systems are visually identical, users will find that cards from one city will
not be accepted at the other.

The Loveland system will incorporate one additional feature not used at Fort
Collins.  At Fort Collins all cards are sold and revalued through automated
self-serve equipment.  The Loveland installation will incorporate the same fully
automated self-serve 24 / 7 capabilities as Fort Collins.  It will also include
a countertop card revalue station which will allow City staff to read a card
balance and to add value to a card separately from the self serve system.

The countertop revalue station is an implementation of the proprietary QI
SmartKit Console product line.  The same QI SmartKit Console revalue stations
are used in other stored value card payment applications.  For example, they are
used for revaluing cards for the City of San Diego on-street parking meter
program.

QI Systems Inc. (http://www.qisystems.ca/) designs hardware and software for the
rapidly expanding smart card industry. The company is a world leader in
supplying top-to-bottom solutions for smart card applications in a wide variety
of industries.  QI Systems, Inc. has a high level of expertise in delivering
stored value solutions for specialized needs.
