OCEANSIDE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/17/13 -- Citadel EFT, Inc.'s (OTCQB: CDFT) CEO Gary DeRoos announces that Citadel EFT has just concluded a Memorandum of Understanding with its professional advisors and consultants where any outstanding contractual obligations that the company has to meet through their ESOP Plan, will now be retired for Citadel EFT's Convertible Preferred C Stock, thus removing any accounts payable obligations from these contractual relationships.

Gary DeRoos, CEO, states, "Lowering the outstanding obligations to the Company is an important step toward moving to an Exchange. The obligation to pay for our professional relationships has typically been handled through the ESOP Plan, but as we move forward our consultants are confident with the continued success and progress of the company and have decided to accept our Restricted Equity securities as compensation. This will serve the interests of all the stock holders as we endeavor to meet our objectives.
