NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. & SANTA ANA, Calif., Oct 06, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- RBDC | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- RBID.com Inc.'s (Pink Sheets:RBDC) new business affiliate, Leverage Inc., today announced the remarkable media attention garnered and consumer value of their bankruptcy insurance policy. Leverage's(R) bankruptcy insurance policy guarantees that all gift cards with a verifiable balance purchased through LeverageCard.com can be exchanged for a gift card of the same value from Leverage's(R) merchant network in the event of the retailer's bankruptcy.

Since the initial announcement of their policy, Leverage(R) has secured press in significant publications relating to the innovative consumer offering, including The Wall Street Journal, KNBC.com, the Orange County Register, and TheStreet.com. Leverage has also seen a significant increase in gift card revenue following the implementation of the policy. Consumer benefits like this combined with other upcoming business and charity partnerships should enable Leverage to achieve mid six-figure revenues by the end of 2008 and mid seven-figure revenues in 2009 from gift card sales alone.

"We are delighted with the amount of press coverage we've received due to our bankruptcy insurance policy, but more so thrilled that we can provide a service of such value to consumers," said Mark Roberts, CEO of Leverage Inc. "During difficult economic times, we at Leverage(R) believe it's important to supply consumers with a means to utilize everything in their wallet. We feel people shouldn't have to suffer when retailers declare bankruptcy -- they have the right to use their hard-earned dollars, not lose them."

"One of the reasons we enjoy working with Leverage(R) is because they are relentlessly creating innovative and practical ways to bring value to their users and build customer loyalty," states Alan Rothman. "We project that this is the type of approach to business that will continue to propel Leverage(R) to the forefront of the retail and commerce sector, further increasing their value to our shareholders."
