WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 16, 2014 / Wowio, Inc. (OTCBB:WWIO), a digital media company with a patented process for inserting ads into eBooks, a mobile eBook distribution platform, and a proprietary mobile ad network, today announced that the Depository Trust Corporation (DTC) has approved Wowio's common stock for DWAC/FAST transfer through Wowio's transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC. With this newly approved stock transfer capability, Wowio's shareholders can now transfer their shares of WWIO electronically after buying or selling on the open market without the extra expense and delay resulting from the redundant process of requesting and transferring physical certificates.

Benefits to Wowio's shareholders as a result of becoming DWAC/FAST approved include reducing the time from weeks to hours for stock deposits and withdrawals into brokerage accounts while eliminating the inherent risks associated with the loss and replacement of physical stock certificates.

Wowio's President and CEO, Brian Altounian, stated, "We are pleased to share this corporate development with our shareholders. Not only does becoming DWAC/FAST eligible provide our existing investors with new efficiencies - both in cost and time savings - but it should aid in facilitating more trading in the open market and help increase overall shareholder liquidity in Wowio's stock."
