Joystar Announces Dramatic Increase in Travel Bookings

Preferred Supplier Relationships and Growth in Membership Driving Sales

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., June 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Joystar, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: JYSR) , the nation's largest and fastest growing travel agency network announced today the Company is experiencing double digit growth month over month in travel sales for 2005.
Travel bookings for the months of April and May were $1,100,000 and $1,300,000 respectively compared to total gross sales for the first quarter of 2005 of $469,000. The Company contributes the opening of its Miami Cruise Center, several new preferred supplier relationships and increased commission opportunities for the Company's travel agents as the driving force behind these dramatic increases.

William M. Alverson, CEO of Joystar commented, "We are very pleased with the growth in travel bookings we are experiencing, which is all organic. We are growing faster than we had planned and we feel we are strengthening our daily position as the leader in our category of the travel industry."

It's nice to begin to see the fruits of our labor. We have invested significant dollars in both technology and human capital over the past two years in our quest to be the dominant player in the emerging home-based travel agent category. We are thrilled to experience this rapid growth and hope to be at $50,000,000 in annualized sales by the end of the third quarter of this year.

At the same time, professional agent membership continues to grow at an unprecedented rate. We are also experiencing double digit growth month over month in our professional agent memberships and anticipate reaching the 2000 agent market sometime this month.

Although bookings do not constitute revenue or income under generally accepted accounting principles, the Company feels that the increase in its bookings are an indication more and more of the amount of consumer buying its travel agent network is capable of generating and that the travel agent community is choosing Joystar as its partner.
