EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Our strategy is to grow profitably by increasing our penetration of the expanding small merchant marketplace for payment and Gift & Loyalty card based products. We find these merchants through our ISO and agent channels of distribution and intend to make additional acquisitions on an opportunistic basis in this fragmented segment of the industry.

OVERVIEW

We are a rapidly growing provider of credit and debit card-based payment processing services and Gift & Loyalty products to small merchants. As of December 31, 2007, we provided our services to numerous ISOs and thousands of merchants located across the United States. Our payment processing services enable our merchants to process traditional card-present, or swipe transactions, as well as card-not-present transactions. A traditional card-present transaction occurs whenever a cardholder physically presents a credit or debit card to a merchant at the point-of-sale. Card-not-present transactions occur whenever the customer does not physically present a payment card at the point-of-sale and may occur over the Internet or by mail, fax or telephone.

DEVELOPMENT OF OUR BUSINESS

International Card Establishment, Inc. (the "Company") (formerly Summit World Ventures, Inc.) was incorporated on December 18, 1986 under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate activity, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. Prior to July 28, 2000, we were in the developmental stage and could be defined as a "shell" company, whose sole purpose was to locate and consummate a merger or acquisition with a private entity, and we did not have any operations. On July 18, 2003, we acquired iNetEvents, Inc., a Nevada corporation and commenced operations. iNetEvents, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on February 3, 1999 and provided Internet support and supply software for real time event/convention information management.

On January 16, 2003, we entered into a Plan and Agreement of Reorganization with International Card Establishment, Inc., a Nevada corporation and its shareholders. International Card Establishment, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on July 26, 2002. As part of the acquisition - a reorganization in the form of a reverse merger, International Card Establishment, Inc. became our wholly-owned subsidiary, and there was a change of our control. Following the International Card Establishment, Inc. acquisition we changed our corporate name from iNetEvents, Inc. to International Card Establishment, Inc. and reverse split our outstanding shares of common stock on a one for two share basis.

Effective September 8, 2004, we entered into a Plan and Agreement of Reorganization with Neos Merchant Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation and its shareholders. Effective September 8, 2004, Neos Merchant Solutions, Inc. became our wholly owned subsidiary.

International Card Establishment, Inc. (the "Company"), a Nevada corporation, is a provider of diversified products and services to the electronic transaction processing industry, offering merchant accounts for the acceptance and processing of credit and debit cards, as well as a proprietary "smart card" based gift and loyalty program. The Company's Merchant Card Services division establishes "merchant accounts" for businesses that enable those businesses to accept credit cards, debit cards, and other forms of electronic payments from their customers; supplies the necessary card readers and other point-of-sale transaction systems; facilitates processing for the accounts; and, provides e-commerce solutions. Through its NEOS Subsidiary the Company also markets a proprietary "Smart Card"-based system that enables merchants to economically offer store-branded gift and loyalty cards - one of the fastest growing product categories in the industry.

As used in these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the terms the "Company", "we", "us", "our" and similar terms refer to International Card Establishment, Inc. and, unless the context indicates otherwise its consolidated subsidiaries. The Companies subsidiaries include NEOS Merchant Services ("NEOS"), a Nevada corporation, which provides smart card loyalty programs in an integrated vertical system for its customers, as well as other electronic payment services (merchant services); International Card Establishment ("ICE"), which provides electronic payment services (merchant services); and INetEvents, Inc. ("INET"), a Delaware Corporation, which has been dormant since 2005.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements, which we discuss under the heading "Results of Operations" following this section of our MD&A. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates include the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets and intangible assets, which impacts operating expenses when we impair assets or accelerate their amortization or depreciation.

We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

The Company estimates its accounts receivable risks and provides allowances for doubtful accounts accordingly. The Company believes that its credit risk for accounts receivable is limited because of its large number of customers and the relatively small account balances for most of its customers. Also, the Company's customers are dispersed across different business and geographic areas. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical loss experience, length of time receivables are past due, adverse situations that may affect a customer's ability to repay and prevailing economic conditions. The Company makes adjustments to its allowance if the evaluation of allowance requirements differs from the actual aggregate reserve. This evaluation is inherently subjective and estimates may be revised as more information becomes available.

REVENUES

The Company provides merchant services and customer support for merchants and other Merchant Services providers. Revenues are recognized as customer services are provided.

The Company provides merchant services to customers for acceptance and processing of electronic payments. Credit card processing fees are recognized as incurred. Sales and cost of sales of equipment are recognized when the equipment is provided and the customer accepts responsibility for the payment of the equipment.

Results of operations consist of the following:

                                                       =================================================================

                    

Net revenues decreased by $1,543,167 or 14% from $10,765,826 to $9,222,659 mainly due to the tightening of credit policies. Risky accounts were not signed and questionable accounts were written off. Residuals decreased by approximately $220,000 because of the write-off of high risk accounts. Sales dropped by approximately $500,000 because fewer merchants were signed as a result tighter credit policies; furthermore, equipment sales fell by approximately $210,000 as a result of more restrictive credit screening policies. The decrease in cost of revenues of $1,142,459 or 16% from $7,157,408 to $6,014,944 is directly related to a comparable decrease in revenues.

Operating, general and administrative costs increased by approximately $460,000 or 7% from $6,515,470 to $6,972,565 mainly due to the recognition of impairment on our merchant portfolios of approximately $3,650,000. Without this nonrecurring impairment charge, our overall expenses would ahve decreased by nearly 50% due to the closing of two offices, the corresponding reduction of staff, and the reduction of bad debt expense due to the tightening of credit policies.

The change in position of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and accounts receivable consist of the following:

                                                       December 31, 2007     December 31, 2006      Difference       %
                                                       _________________________________________________________________

                    Cash                                  $   126,149           $   157,528        $   (31,379)     (20)
                    Accounts Payable and
                      Accrued Expenses                    $   619,375           $   865,336        $  (245,961)     (28)
                    Accounts Receivable                   $    27,059           $    87,706        $   (60,646)     (69)


                    

Cash decreased by approximately $31,000 or 20% from $157,528 to $126,149 due to the paying down of outstanding debt obligations and accounts payable.

Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses fell by approximately $245,000 or 28% from $865,336 to $619,375 because of a reduction in the reserve for merchant chargebacks due to the scrubbing of high risk accounts and the paying down outstanding payables.

Accounts Receivable fell by approximately $60,000 or 69% from $87,706 to $27,059 because of the tightening credit extension policies and the write-off of uncollectible or high-risk accounts.

Management believes that it is moving toward profitability. We plan to attain profitability and meet cash flow needs going forward as follows:

1. Management believes that the increase in revenue we have experienced will continue as a result of the operations of its subsidiaries ICE and NEOS.

2. We are actively seeking additional financing to implement measures that Management believes will increase our operating margins and for additional acquisitions that will increase our overall revenue base. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital as required, or obtain the capital on acceptable terms and conditions.

3. We are seeking to control overall operating expenses while increasing our gross revenue base through the integration of existing acquisitions and future acquisitions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We are currently seeking to expand our merchant services offerings in bankcard and gift and loyalty. In addition, we are investigating additional business opportunities and potential acquisitions; accordingly we will require additional capital to complete the expansion and to undertake any additional business opportunities.

We have financed our operations during the year primarily through the receipt of proceeds of $754,396 from our line of credit with a related party sales of common stock subscriptions and use of cash on hand.

We had $126,149 cash on hand as of December 31, 2007 compared to $157,528 cash on hand as of December 31, 2006. We will continue to need additional cash during the following twelve months and these needs will coincide with the cash demands resulting from our general operations and planned expansion. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital as required, or obtain the capital on acceptable terms and conditions.
