TRANSACT TECHNOLOGIES LAUNCHES EXPANDED PRESENCE AT GLOBAL GAMING EXPOWallingford, CT – September 13, 2005 – TransAct Technologies Incorporated (Nasdaq: TACT), a leading producer of transaction-based printers for customers worldwide, today announced it would have a greatly expanded presence at this year's Global Gaming Expo (G2E) taking place September 13-15 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth #1212. This year the company will feature its key printers in a larger, 1200 sq. ft. interactive booth, which will allow gaming customers to experience the company's printers at work in four specific printer zones; Epic Languages, Epic Promotions, Epic Performance and Epic Upgrades.

Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TransAct Technologies, said, "The theme for us at this year's G2E is 'Epic Success', reflecting the industry-wide acceptance and success of our Epic 950&#8482 printer which was launched in 2004, and the launch of our newest printer, the Epic 630&#8482. We will showcase the exclusive capabilities of the Epic 950 that earned it the industry's overwhelming approval in the four distinct product zones. For example, the Epic Promotions zone will demonstrate the patented technology of the Epic 950 to flexibly print both promotional coupons and ticket vouchers on the same printer. And in Epic Languages, we will showcase TransAct's growing presence in global markets with ticket printing in several different languages, including Chinese, English, Russian and Spanish. Overall, we are confident that our new, larger and more interactive booth will provide a quality experience for TransAct customers at this year's important G2E."

Other featured Epic product zones at G2E include Epic Performance demonstrating the high performance features of the Epic 950 and Epic Upgrades where the interactive experience will include an exciting timed swap out of older technology printers for the TransAct Epic 950. Epic Upgrades showcases the intelligent patented design that allows for extremely fast and easy printer exchange in any slot. The newly launched Epic 630&#8482 printer, targeted for the huge European and Asian AWP, SWP, VLT, Kiosks and other gaming type machines found in venues outside of casinos, will complete the Epic zones with its own exclusive launch area within the TransAct booth.

TransAct Services Group will also have a much larger presence this year, with a dedicated area to highlight the increasing global service options that TransAct offers. This Services area is a must-see stop in the TransAct booth for all slot technical professionals.
