CORRECTING and REPLACING -- GetFugu Reminds Consumers of Giveaway of 100,000 Free Debit Cards to First Users On 09/09/09 Debut

In a release issued earlier today by GetFugu, Inc. (OTCBB:GFGU), under the same headline, please note the date of the free debit card offer is Wednesday, September 9, 2009, and not Wednesday, September 2, 2009, as previously stated. The corrected release follows:

GetFugu, Inc. (OTCBB:GFGU), www.getfugu.com, the next generation mobile search tool, to introduce their revolutionary new method of accessing the Internet through mobile phones, reminds consumers it will give away, free, Wednesday, September 9, 2009, to the first 100,000 experiencers, a customizable, branded, black debit card which will enable users to receive rewards from some of the largest consumer-focused industries and Fortune 500/1000 companies, as well as over 700 online retailers, 70 big-box brick & mortar retail stores, and more than 25,000 local community merchants and retailers, including FuelLinks, a "Cash-for-Gas" Program.

GetFugu's week-from-Wednesday premiere at GigaOM's Mobilize 09 conference and trade show in San Francisco, will be attended by the foremost global high technology companies and media, and GetFugu will lead workshops and demonstrate its four unique "See It," vision recognition (ARL) "Say It," voice recognition (VRL) "Find It," location recognition (GRL) and "Get It," Hot-Spotting services.

GetFugu's unique app is targeted at consumers who spend valuable time hunting for entertainment, news, sport results, shopping, and more on their mobile phones as it offers ease of operation and direct connection to the Internet without tedious typing in of URL addresses for commercial transactions. FuelLinks, a fuel-based rewards program, allows cardholders to buy products at major grocery chains, local merchants and retailers and redeem points earned through their purchases at over 23,000 gas stations across the country, such as BP, CITGO, Arco, and Marathon, for "free gas" as their reward.

GetFugu.com cardholders will be able to click on to a micro-website for access to the features offered, as well as the cardholder system dashboard to manage their accounts. The site will also include both video and spokesperson presentations. Because GetFugu recognizes the importance and power of individuality, at activation, the cardholder may personalize their card with their own photos.
