Major Swiss Internet Sites
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., Mar 15, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- David C. Skinner,
Jr., President and CEO of Winners Internet Network, Inc. (OTCBB:WINR),
www.winr.net, today announced that the Company has completed system
integration and testing of its e-commerce processing system, and is now
online and processing financial transactions for two major Swiss
Internet sites.

"Winners, while continuing to support and grow our profitable
processing operations for the gaming business, has been actively
engaged in expanding the scope of our business operations to embrace
the enormous potential of the e-commerce marketplace. No longer just a
vision of the future, the Company is pleased to announce that in
conjunction with a previously executed contract, it has now implemented
the system, and actually begun financial transaction processing for the
Internet e-commerce subsidiary of TA Media, one of the most successful
media enterprises in Switzerland with daily newspapers, magazines,
radio and TV stations," said Mr. Skinner.

"The subsidiary is coincidentally called Winner Market Group (no
relationship to Winners Internet Network). Their web site may be viewed
at www.winner.ch. The Winner.ch site is comprised of five different
e-commerce specialty sites: Jobs, Real Estate, Autos, Auctions, and
General Classifieds. These sites have been acknowledged as some of the
leading e-commerce sites in Switzerland. At each site, value added
services are provided - for instance, at the Real Estate site one may
find relevant articles, loan calculation tools and buy/rent
comparisons, all designed to encourage visitors to view the site as a
single source resource for real estate matters."

"We are currently fully operational on two of the sites - Job Winner AG
and Immo Winner AG (real estate) - with our proprietary E-Swipe(TM)
technology. Job Winner alone already has postings for over 18,000 jobs.
Over the next few months, we will be phasing in the rest of the sites
as well as further expanding functionality. We are proud to have
achieved this significant milestone in the growth of our company, and
appreciate the many shareholders who have continued to demonstrate
their confidence in our ability to effectively execute our Company's
vision," added Mr. Skinner.

Juerg Grau, CEO of TA Media's Internet subsidiary Winner Market Group,
stated "the Winners solution was selected after an in-depth evaluation
because of the company's track record, efficiency, reliability and
security. We've found a lot of promises on the market, but we needed
instant availability and high quality. We are most pleased with the
progress and look forward to working together with Winners as we
further expand and grow our e-commerce offerings."
