NetLedger Teams with Yahoo! to Provide Integrated
Accounting Solutions to Yahoo! Store Merchants
San Mateo, Calif. - Sept. 11, 2000. NetLedger, Inc.,
today announced it has reached an agreement with Yahoo!
Inc. (Nasdaq: YHOO) to integrate NetLedger's anytime,
anywhere online business services into Yahoo!® Store

online stores to market and sell goods and services.
Through this integration, retailers can have orders
placed through their Yahoo! Store automatically transferred
to their NetLedger account, simplifying the accounting
process and allowing Yahoo! Store merchants to keep
their inventory and sales data accurate more easily.
"The relationship presents the opportunity for
NetLedger to add thousands of committed new users,"
said Evan Goldberg, president and chief executive officer

however, is working closely with the Yahoo! team to
realize NetLedger' vision - to enable businesses to
run more effectively by leveraging the power of the
Internet. We are leveling the playing field to give
small businesses the same opportunities as the large
companies."
"The Internet is reshaping business - big business,
small business, all businesses," said Larry Ellison,
chief executive officer of Oracle and chairman of NetLedger,
Inc. "The integration of NetLedger's accounting
system with Yahoo! Store enables small businesses to
go online more quickly and less expensively than ever
thought possible."
The agreement allows Yahoo! Store merchants to manage
their accounting more easily with an integrated login
process. Yahoo! Store merchants using the combined service
can enjoy NetLedger's unique online business management
features, including anytime, anywhere Internet access.
Additionally, the NetLedger accounting services on Yahoo!
Store will have a familiar look to Yahoo! consumers
due to a customized, co-branded interface developed
especially for this agreement.

service through their Yahoo! Store Manager and receive
the service free for the first two months. Beyond that,
the service is available for $4.95 each month per user.

is committed to providing merchants with the best tools
available to effectively build and conduct business
online," said Jerry Yang, co-founder and Chief
