ePals(TM) Partners With Kindoma to Provide Award-Winning Children's Content in Innovative App

WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwired - Mar 11, 2014) - ePals Corporation (TSX-VENTURE: SLN), an education media and social learning company, today announces a joint product offering with Kindoma, a recognized creator of mobile apps that combine shared reading experiences with video chat for families. The partnership integrates content from ePals award-winning Cricket Magazine Group with Kindoma's popular social learning application.

"At Kindoma, our mission is to help children engage with their loved ones around media, and high-quality, beloved content is key to that equation," said Tico Ballagas, CEO of Kindoma. "So many parents and grandparents value the exceptional quality of content from the publications by Cricket Magazine Group, and we are proud to offer a technology that allows them to rediscover ePals' digital magazines with their children and grandchildren even when geographically apart."

"This new product illustrates how ePals works with partners to combine exceptional digital content and innovative technology to engage children and families in great reading and learning," said Katya Andresen, CEO of ePals. "We are excited to reach new audiences for our digital products and enhance their features through our partnership with Kindoma."

The Kindoma app is designed to connect families when they are apart through reading together using video chat while interacting with the app tools. On average, families read together within the app in excess of 20 minutes, far exceeding the average time of a traditional call or video chat.

The agreement with Kindoma brings a new way for users to interact with ePals' content, which is digital and print, multi-lingual and created for grades K-12. The Kindoma app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch is available from the iTunes App Store at http://bit.ly/1oFgKGd. ePals digital products for Kindoma are available by monthly subscription or can be purchased individually, with a free preview of the company's Mother Goose Rhymes available to all users through March 31, 2014.

About Kindoma Kindoma is the award-winning creator of mobile videochat services that help families connect when they can't be together, through shared activities such as reading and drawing. Kindoma's flagship product, Kindoma Storytime for the iPad and iPhone, combines books and videochat to provide a synchronized reading experience from either together or afar.
