DreamPlay Ventures, LLC
offers its Patent Pending system to create a standard
that will be given to all in Card Industry
"DreamPlay Ventures adds Wall Street Technology
and Card Industry Technology firms to ownership group;
consortium well positioned to develop ‘ads on receipts’
platform connectivity"
CEDAR KNOLLS, N.J. (April 16, 2007)
DreamPlay Ventures, the world’s first and only company
enabling customized graphic ads on card receipts, today
announced it has formed The International Standards Organization
for Receipt Ad Placement (ISOrap.org).
ISOrap.org is a consortium led by DreamPlay Ventures (DPV),
Micro Design Services, LLC (MDS) and Crossgate Dynamics,
LLC (CGD). The mission of ISOrap.org is to offer total
connectivity to all industry participants so they can
generate revenue from display ads on Card receipts.
“We have always known that our Patent Pending system
would serve the industry best if every merchant was able
to connect to it. To help accomplish this, we have added
MDS and Crossgate to our company. MDS has broad experience
in the Financial Service arena; while Crossgate Dynamics’
principle has been developing systems for the Card industry
for years. The combination of these two fine companies
with DreamPlay, allows for an exciting opportunity to
be quickly available to all Merchants with the ability
to generate revenue by printing ads and coupons on card
receipts.” said Andrew Bittman, President of DreamPlay
Ventures, LLC.
“We have seen paradigm shifts before and believe
this one will happen very quickly; we are excited about
the opportunity to contribute our experience. Opening
the system to all should connect millions of merchants
to a new revenue source. We expect the standard to be
available to all who wish to take advantage of this opportunity.”
said John Petschauer CEO of MDS.
John Allen Tharpe, CEO of Crossgate Dynamics stated, “Creating
a common ad platform for the industry is a tremendous
opportunity for Crossgate, not to mention the industry
itself. After servicing the Card industry for almost twenty
years, it is refreshing to work on something that will
benefit the industry as a whole, considering DreamPlay
could have held out and only sold it to paying customers.”
In addition to their current company responsibilities,
John Petschauer has assumed the role of Chief Technology
Officer while John Allen Tharpe has assumed the role of
Chief Information Officer of DreamPlay Ventures.
