ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 13,1999--David C. Skinner, Jr., President and CEO of Winners Internet Network, Inc. (WINR) announces that it has commenced operations with Casino Vega (www.casinovega.com).

WINR has begun processing online transactions for Casino Vega for their Internet Casino. WINR signed an agreement with Casino Vega during July 1999 and has now commenced full operations. WINR will be providing its full financial services including use of its multi-currency processing along with making payments to Casino Vega's customers worldwide.

WINR wishes to welcome Casino Vega aboard, and is proud to announce the addition of this fine gaming operation which is immediately available to all WINR customers! With the addition of Casino Vega this will greatly enhance WINR's processing revenue and WINR anticipates stronger client growth.

On August 5, 1999, WINR moved its processing and programming facility to Ruggell, Liechtenstein. WINR moved into a new facility with its Internet service provider (ISP) Supranet and by doing this WINR now has increased its bandwidth which brings the availability of more users and faster downloading of the WINR site. WINR also commenced using a new online credit card approval system which will improve its processing times dramatically.
