Galacticomm, Inc. Introduces Omni-Mall for Online Ordering and Real-Time
Credit Card Verification over the Web and Other Networks

CLIENT/SERVER APPLICATION WORKS WITH WORLDGROUP PLUG-IN FOR NETSCAPE

San Jose, CA - February 20, 1996 - Galacticomm, Inc. introduces the
Omni-Mall shopping system, a new client/server application for its
Worldgroup online software. Omni-Mall joins the suite of Worldgroup
applications that users can launch directly from a Web site using their
Netscape Navigator 2.0 browsers. Omni-Mall, which has entered final beta
testing, allows an organization to sell its own products online as well as
offer retail space to other merchants.

"What Worlds Chat did for talking on the Web, Omni-Mall does for open
market commerce," says Galacticomm President and CEO Scott Brinker. "It's
a fully interactive environment for online shopping and order entry,
complete with encrypted real-time credit card verification. Best of all,
anyone can install Omni-Mall, import their products and be up and running
on the Web with a few simple EMBED commands in their HTML files. The
Worldgroup Plug-in takes care of all the user interface for you."

Omni-Mall maintains a database of stores, their departments and their
products. Stores are created by the System Operator (Sysop), whereas
departments and products can be created or added by either the store
manager or the Sysop. Image files (JPG, BMP, TIFF, PCX), sound (WAV) and
unlimited-length text files can be associated with each product. These can
be viewed online or downloaded for later use --which is ideal for
companies selling information, graphics or software. Customers can browse
the stores from their PCs, select products and then pay using a variety of
payment options including American Express, Discover, MasterCard, Visa,
COD, purchase order, and online credits. Payments are encrypted for added
security.

Each store within Omni-Mall can process credit card transactions in real
time using different credit card networks. Omni-Mall can fax orders and
invoices from each store to a specified fax number when used in
conjunction with Galacticomm's optional Fax/Online add-on module.
