    HipCricket wins 2008 Pioneer award

    HipCricket, recently named as "the early leader in mobile marketing in the US" by wireless analyst firm Frost & Sullivan, announces that
it has been awarded a second Pioneer award from CTIA, the international association for the wireless telecommunications industry, and
NeuStar, Inc, a provider of clearinghouse and directory services to the communications and internet industry.

    These are the third annual awards and they celebrate the five year anniversary of the US Common Short Code (CSC) programme.

    HipCricket was one of three honoured innovative companies, all of which were said to have "experienced exceptional growth in leased CSCs
over the past year". HipCricket was also given special recognition as a repeat winner and a "leader in leased short codes with 358 active
codes and annual growth of 126% through its work with broadcasters and brands." 

    CSC is the primary mobile direct response method in use in the US. They are short 5 and 6 digit numbers that mobile phone users can use
to send and receive text and multimedia messages using the messaging capabilities that come standard with virtually every mobile handset.
CSCs are accessible to more than 95% of mobile phone users, and provide marketers the greatest opportunity for reach compared to other
marketing mediums. CSCs work across mobile service providers so brands can reach mobile subscribers regardless of a users' mobile provider
or device.

    Steve Largent, president and CEO of CTIA, said, "These companies have shown true innovation and leadership in taking the mobile
marketing revolution to the next level. They are clearly expanding the market for CSCs by demonstrating to new clients the marketing power
of CSCs to create new business opportunities."
