EXHIBIT 99.1

Spriza Provides Corporate Update

EL SEGUNDO, CA – February 12, 2015/Marketwired/ - Spriza, Inc. (“Spriza”)(OTCQB: SPRZ), the world's leading social network for group prizes and incentives today announced the release of its SPRIZA™ Do-it-Yourself (“DIY”) contest building and toolbox platform for small and medium sized businesses.

The DIY contest toolbox is available through Spriza’s website ( www.spriza.com ) and through the business user’s private account toolbox. Clients are now able to upload, self-administer and activate contests within minutes through their own Spriza step-by-step business account.

The DIY contest platform will have three pricing tiers to allow for flexibility of budgets and ease of entry onto the platform. Each tier will give the client a robust option to build-out its contest marketing strategy depending on their budget and needs. The addition of the DIY platform will allow for greater access to Spriza’s marketing tools, capable of serving the diverse needs of several business verticals. This will allow greater ease of entry and flexibility for clients to market through Spriza; thus potentially expanding the number of paying clients in our database.

The DIY toolbox platform has an extensive analytics dashboard, providing the key metrics companies are looking for in their marketing campaigns. With mounting pressure on the overall ROI of any marketing initiative, more businesses are looking to marketing platforms that offer such detailed information.

Opening the Do-it-Yourself platform will have a positive effect on Spriza’s overall user’s statistics.  The more contests that are created through different business verticals the more users will filter into the Spriza database, which in turn creates revenue through upfront fees, affiliate revenue, lead generation, downloads and coupon conversion.

Rob Danard, CEO of Spriza, said, “There are thousands of contests on the Internet at any given time.  We are now able to offer these vendors a new way to supercharge their campaigns simply and easily. This is really going to open up the door for our clients and third party vendors looking to add additional reach to their current marketing strategies.  By allowing businesses to self-administer their contest empowers them to manage their contest in real time. Aside from the personalized dashboard and analytics it also gives them the reassurance that all the legal and regulatory issues with respect to contest rules within their jurisdictions are taken care of giving invaluable piece of mind to our clients.”
