SANTA BARBARA, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 28, 2014) - Warp 9, Inc. (OTCQB: WNYN), the premier provider of mobile and digital commerce solutions for midsize online sellers, today announced its plan to enhance the growth of its business through the strategic acquisition of successful digital commerce companies.

"Digital commerce is one of the fastest growing industries in the world right now and our WarpMobile group continues to experience strong organic growth," said Andrew Van Noy, CEO of Warp 9. "Shoppers are becoming more sophisticated and demanding in their digital shopping habits, and online merchants are in large part turning to digital commerce vendors to meet these rigorous demands. The need for a partner who can help online merchants effectively design, build, maintain and drive traffic and increase sales through their digital commerce channels is greater than ever. We see a real growth opportunity by becoming that partner to these merchants."

To strengthen its position in the industry and accelerate its growth, Warp 9 plans to acquire companies that are expert in the various digital commerce services that are needed to increase sales and decrease costs for online merchants. "We initially plan on focusing on what we know best, the Magento e-commerce marketplace," Van Noy continued. "There are over 240,000 online stores powered by Magento, and approximately 65 North American certified companies serving these merchants. By executing a consolidation strategy with a select group of these companies that are experienced in building, maintaining and driving sales for Magento merchants, Warp 9 will not only be in the position to capture a significantly larger share of the market, but will also be able to offer greater value to its customers."

In addition to serving the Magento commerce marketplace, Warp 9 has identified other digital commerce platforms and services providers that could be approached for future acquisition growth.
