DESOTO, TX--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 14, 2008 -- Etelcharge.com (OTC BB:ETLC.OB - News), the new online way to pay(TM), today announced that the Company was featured in Mercado de Dinero (www.mercadodedinerousa.com). Mercado de Dinero is the only monthly publication in Spanish specializing in all consumer issues both domestic and international.

The Hispanic population is the fastest growing minority segment in the United States. With approximately 38 million Hispanics residing in the U.S., this group boasts a purchasing power of $450 billion a year.

"A feature story in a highly respected publication targeting such a growing and robust population is a great endorsement of Etelcharge's technology. Consumer concerns remain the same among all ethnic groups -- the ability to make purchases in a secure manner and the alternative to those not eligible to or willing to use credit cards. We will be launching our site in Spanish and believe that Hispanic merchants and buyers will readily see the benefits," stated Rob Howe, CEO.
