E-CENTIVES ANNOUNCES NEW PREFERRED EQUITY FUNDING
Company Significantly Reduces Debt Through Restructuring of Previous Notes

BETHESDA, MD; April 25, 2005—E-centives, Inc. (SWX: ECEN), a leading provider of interactive marketing technologies and services, today announced it has recently reached an agreement with certain of its existing investors for a preferred stock financing which consists of an offering of shares of a newly created series of preferred stock, designated Series C preferred stock.

In connection with this financing, some of the Company’s largest investors–InVenture, Inc., Pine, Inc. and Venturetec, Inc.–agreed to exchange their previous convertible promissory notes for shares of the newly created Series C preferred stock. Upon this exchange, which became effective on March 31, 2005, the notes have been cancelled and the Company owes no further amounts thereunder. In addition, the Company intends to fund its additional working capital needs through this new preferred equity.

Kamran Amjadi, E-centives’ Chairman and CEO said, “We are very excited about this financing which significantly reduces the Company’s debt and corresponding interest expense.” Mr. Amjadi added, “This funding results in improvements to the Company’s financial position–both to the balance sheet and P&L–and also demonstrates the continued financial commitment by the Company’s principal stockholder.”

“E-centives has shown momentum in many aspects of their business,” said Peter Friedli, one of E-centives’ Directors and one of its largest investors. “I look forward to seeing the business expand and benefit from the growing interest in the Internet sector.”

More details of this financing are available on the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed on April 7, 2005.
