Dollar Financial Corp Announces the Opening of Its Third Company Operated Financial Services Store in Poland.

BERWYN, Pa. -- Dollar Financial Corp (NASDAQ: DLLR), a leading international diversified financial services company serving primarily unbanked and under-banked consumers for over 30 years, today announced the opening of its third company-operated financial services store in Poland. The newest store, located on the high street in the town of Gdynia, follows the successful launch of the Company's first multi-product pilot store in Gdansk in September 2010. The three pilot stores currently offer short term loans, pawn lending, gold buying, foreign exchange and money transfer services with the potential to supplement additional products and services in the near future.

Commenting on the store opening, Jeff Weiss, Dollar's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "It is our mission to be the leading global provider of financial services to the under-banked and unbanked consumer, which we refer to as the ALICE demographic (or asset limited, income constrained, employed). The ALICE demographic represents a significant percentage of the population in Poland, which is largely comprised of a lower-wage generally skilled workforce. Based on our exposure to the Polish market thus far, which was initiated in July 2009 with the purchase of an in-home lending business based in Gdansk, the multi-product retail financial services store is a relatively new concept in the Polish market. We plan on promoting consumer awareness of these pilot stores with focused local area marketing strategies targeting the significant un-banked and under-banked population in proximity to these stores. Following the continued successful test of these pilot stores, we would anticipate opening additional company-operated stores in Poland in the near future."
