Accompanying this Proxy Statement is the Proxy for the Annual Meeting, which you
may use to  indicate  your  vote as to the  proposals  described  in this  Proxy
Statement.

         All Proxies  which are properly  completed,  signed and returned to the
Company prior to the Annual  Meeting,  and which have not been revoked,  will be
voted as specified by the  stockholder,  or, if no vote is indicated,  the proxy
will be voted in favor of the  proposals  described in this Proxy  Statement.  A
stockholder may revoke his or her Proxy at any time before it is voted either by
filing with the Secretary of the Company,  at its principal executive offices, a
written  notice of revocation or a duly executed  proxy bearing a later date, or
by  attending  the Annual  Meeting  and  expressing  a desire to vote his or her
shares in person.

         The cost of the Annual  Meeting,  including  the cost of preparing  and
mailing this Proxy Statement,  will be borne by the Company. The Company may, in
addition,  use the services of its directors,  officers and employees to solicit
Proxies,   personally  or  by  telephone,   but  at  no  additional   salary  or
compensation.  The  Company  also  requests  banks,  brokers and others who hold
Common Stock of the Company in nominee  names to distribute  annual  reports and
Proxy soliciting  materials to beneficial  owners and shall reimburse such banks
and brokers for  reasonable  out-of-pocket  expenses  which they may incur in so
doing.

         The  Company's  principal  executive  offices  are located at 136 Heber
Avenue,  Suite 204, P.O. Box 8000, Park City,  Utah 84060.  This Proxy Statement
and the accompanying  Proxy were mailed to stockholders on or about November __,

                        VOTING RIGHTS AND VOTES REQUIRED

         The close of  business on November 5, 1999 has been fixed as the record
date for the determination of stockholders  entitled to notice of and to vote at
the Annual Meeting or any  adjournments of the Annual Meeting.  As of the record
date, the Company had outstanding  _________  shares of common stock,  par value
$0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"),  the only outstanding voting security of
the  Company.   As  of  the  record  date,  the  Company  had  approximately  __
stockholders  of record.  A  stockholder  is  entitled to cast one vote for each
share held on the record  date on all  matters  to be  considered  at the Annual
Meeting.

         One-third of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at
the  Meeting  must be  present in person or  represented  by proxy at the Annual
Meeting in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

         All  shares  represented  by the  accompanying  proxy,  if the proxy is
properly  executed and returned,  will be voted as specified by the stockholder,
or, if no vote is  indicated,  the  proxy  will be voted  FOR the  nominees  for
director,  FOR the  approval  of the  amendment  to the  Company's  Amended  and
Restated  Incentive  Plan, and FOR the  ratification  of the selection of Arthur


                                       2



Andersen LLP as independent public accountants for the Company.  As to any other
matter of business  which may properly be brought before the Annual  Meeting,  a
vote may be cast  pursuant  to the  accompanying  proxy in  accordance  with the
judgment  and  discretion  of the  person or persons  voting the same,  although
management  does not presently know of any such other matter of business.  Votes
withheld by nominee recordholders who did not receive specific instructions from
the  beneficial  owners of shares will not be treated as votes cast or as shares
present or  represented  and will reduce the absolute  number  (although not the
percentage) of affirmative votes needed for approval.

         In the  election  of  directors,  the eight  candidates  receiving  the
highest number of votes at the Annual  Meeting will be elected as directors.  In
order to approve the amendment to the Company's  Amended and Restated  Incentive
Plan,  and  for  ratification  of  the  selection  of  Arthur  Andersen  LLP  as
independent  public  accountants  of the Company,  the  affirmative  vote of the
holders of a majority of the Common Stock  present in person or  represented  by
proxy and properly voting at the Annual Meeting will be required.

         In the event that the votes  necessary to approve any of the  foregoing
proposals  have not been obtained by the date of the Annual  Meeting or a quorum
is  not  present  at the  Meeting,  the  Chairman  of the  Meeting  may,  in his
discretion,  adjourn  the  Annual  Meeting  from  time  to time  to  permit  the
solicitation of additional proxies by the Board of Directors.


                        DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

         The  stockholders  are being  asked to elect eight  directors  to serve
until the next Annual  Meeting of  Stockholders  and until their  successors are
duly elected and  qualified.  The proxies will be voted in favor of the nominees
unless otherwise specifically  instructed.  Although the Board of Directors does
not anticipate that any nominee will be unavailable  for election,  in the event
of such occurrence the proxies will be voted for such substitute, if any, as the
Board of Directors may designate.

         The eight nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of
the shares  entitled to be voted will be elected  directors;  votes withheld and
broker non-votes have no legal effect.

         The following table sets forth certain information with respect to each
director, nominee and executive officer of the Company as of November 5, 1999:

Aggregated Option Exercises and Year-End Option Values in Fiscal 1999

         The following table summarizes for each of the named executive officers
of the Company the number of stock  options,  if any,  exercised  during  fiscal
1999, the aggregate  dollar value  realized upon  exercise,  the total number of
unexercised  options  held at June 30, 1999 and the  aggregate  dollar  value of


                                       8



in-the-money  unexercised options, if any, held at June 30, 1999. Value realized
upon exercise is the difference  between the fair market value of the underlying
stock on the exercise  date and the exercise  price of the option.  The value of
unexercised, in-the-money options at June 30, 1999 is the difference between its
exercise  price and the fair market  value of the  underlying  stock on June 30,
1999,  which was $5.875 per share  based on the  closing bid price of the Common
Stock on June 30, 1999. The underlying  options have not been, and may never be,
exercised; and actual gains, if any, on exercise will depend on the value of the
Common  Stock on the actual date of  exercise.  There can be no  assurance  that
these values will be realized.

Stock Option Plan

         The Company has adopted the Amended and  Restated  Incentive  Plan (the
"Option Plan") to assist the Company in securing and retaining key employees and
directors.  The Option  Plan  provides  that  options  to  purchase a maximum of
2,500,000   shares  of  Common  Stock  may  be  granted  to  (i)  directors  and
consultants,  and (ii) officers  (whether or not a director) or key employees of
the  Company  ("Eligible  Employees").  The Option Plan will  terminate  in 2014
unless sooner terminated by the Board of Directors.

         The Option Plan is administered by a committee (the "Option Committee")
currently  consisting  of the Board of  Directors.  The total  number of options
granted in any year to Eligible Employees,  the number and selection of Eligible
Employees  to receive  options,  the  number of options  granted to each and the
other terms and  provisions of such options are wholly within the  discretion of
the Option  Committee,  subject to the limitations set forth in the Option Plan.
The option  exercise  price for options  granted  under the Plan may not be less
than 100% of the fair market  value of the  underlying  common stock on the date
the option is  granted.  Options  granted  under the Option Plan expire upon the
earlier of an expiration  date fixed by the Option  Committee or five years from
the date of grant.

         Under the  Option  Plan,  the  Company  may issue  both  qualified  and
non-qualified  stock options. As of June 30, 1999, options to purchase 1,778,971
shares of Common Stock were outstanding under the Plan.

Compensation of Directors

         The Company's  non-employee Directors are not currently compensated for
attendance at Board of Director meetings. Non-employee directors may be granted,
on an ad hoc basis, stock options upon being appointed to the Board. The Company
may  adopt  a  formal  director  compensation  plan  in the  future.  All of the
Directors are reimbursed for their expenses for each Board and committee meeting
attended.

                        COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF
                       THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

         Section  16(a) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  requires  the
Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a
registered  class  of the  Company's  equity  securities,  to  file  reports  of
ownership and changes in ownership with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission
and the National  Association  of Securities  Dealers.  Officers,  directors and
greater than  ten-percent  stockholders  are required by Securities and Exchange
Commission  regulations  to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a)
forms they file.  Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished
to the Company and on representations  that no other reports were required,  the
Company has  determined  that during the last fiscal year all  applicable  16(a)
filing requirements were met.


                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS


         During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Company made cash loans to two
officers  totaling  $46,000,  which were settled  during the year ended June 30,
1995, except for $1,000 which was settled during the year ended June 30, 1997.

         Prior to July 1, 1994,  the Company  had  borrowed  money from  certain
officers.  Additional  borrowings  of $50,000 and $129,500  were made during the
years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Principal  payments on these
notes were $1,666,  $199,500,  and $2,152  during the years ended June 30, 1997,
1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The amounts due on these loans at June 30,  1998,
1997 and 1996 were $0, $0 and $1,666, respectively.

         During the year ended June 30, 1997,  the Company  negotiated  services
and equipment purchase agreements with CasinoWorld Holdings,  Ltd.,  Cybergames,
Inc., Online Investments,  Inc. and Barrons Online, Inc., companies in which Mr.
Egide,  one  of the  Company's  directors  and  stockholders  has  an  ownership
interest.  Under the  agreements,  the  Company  provided  software  development
services, and configured hardware and other computer equipment.

         During the year ended June 30, 1999, the Company made a cash loan to an
officer in the amount of $56,000, which was settled in full in July 1999.

         In connection  with the acquisition of SB.com in June 1999, the Company
made cash loans of $500,000 to each of four officers of SB.com.  in exchange for
promissory  notes.  The notes accrue interest at a rate of six percent per annum
and are due in full June 30, 2001 or sooner if the makers receive  proceeds from
the sale of Company stock. During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Company made
cash loans to two officers totaling $46,000,  which were settled during the year
ended June 30, 1995,  except for $1,000 which was settled  during the year ended
June 30, 1997.

                          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

         The Company's executive  compensation  policies are administered by the
Compensation  Committee.  The Compensation  Committee reviews and determines the
compensation  of the Company's  officers and evaluates  management  performance,
management succession and related matters.

         The compensation policy of the Company is to provide competitive levels
of  compensation  that are  influenced by  performance,  that reward  individual
achievements,  and that  enable  the  Company to  attract  and retain  qualified
executives.  Compensation  consists  primarily  of annual  salary and  long-term

                                       10



incentive compensation in the form of stock options. Bonuses are awarded only in
circumstances  when, in the  Compensation  Committee's  subjective  judgment,  a
particular executive had exceptional performance during the prior year.

         The Compensation  Committee believes that Mr. Edwards'  contribution to
the Company in fiscal 1998 justifies the bonus he received and the stock options
he was granted.

                  The Compensation Committee:

                  James A. Egide
                  Kenneth M. Woolley
                  Glen Hartman


                                PERFORMANCE GRAPH

         The  following  chart shows how $100  invested as of June 30, 1995,  in
shares of the Company's Common Stock would have grown during the two-year period
ended  June 30,  1999,  as a result of  changes in the  Company's  stock  price,
compared  with $100 invested in the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and in the
Standard & Poor's Technology 500 Index.

         The Company's Common Stock began to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board
in  January  1995,  prior  to that  time  there  was no  public  market  for the
securities  of the  Company's  predecessor  and the  Company is not aware of any
quotations for its securities during that period.

                              ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

         Pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company,  the Board of
Directors is to be comprised  of not fewer than three  members.  The term of the
directors is to be for a period of one year or until their  successors  are duly
elected and qualified.  Accordingly,  the directors elected at this meeting will
serve  until  the  next  annual  meeting  to be held in  2000,  or  until  their
successors are elected and qualified.  The persons named in the enclosed form of
Proxy will vote the shares  represented  by such Proxy FOR the  election  of the
nominees for director named below. The nominees are:



            Name of Nominee         Age       Current Position
    James A. Egide                   65       Chairman, Chief Executive Officer

    Don Marshall                     40       Director, President

    Mitchell L. Edwards              41       Director, Executive Vice

    Kenneth M. Woolley               52       Director

    Glen Hartman                     42       Director

    Thomas Tesmer                    53       Director

    David Hicks                      31       Director

    Kenneth Nagel                    52       Director

         Biographical  information  regarding  the  nominees  is set forth above
under the caption "Directors and Executive Officers."

         Pursuant  to  the  Company's   Amended  and  Restated   Certificate  of
Incorporation, every holder of Common Stock voting for the election of directors
is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock.  A stockholder  may vote
each share once for one nominee to each of the director  positions being filled,
and there is no cumulative voting.

         Proxies  solicited  hereby  (other  than  Proxies  in which the vote is
withheld as to one or more nominees)  will be voted for the candidates  standing
for  election as directors  nominated by the Board.  If any nominee is unable to
serve, the shares represented by all valid proxies will be voted for election of
such substitute as the Board may recommend.  At this time, the Board knows of no
reason why any nominee might be unavailable to serve.

         The Board of  Directors  unanimously  recommends a vote FOR each of the
director nominees.

                                 PROPOSAL No. 2

                     APPROVAL OF SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
                DIGITAL COURIER TECHNOLOGIES, INC. INCENTIVE PLAN


         The Board of Directors  has adopted and  recommends  that  shareholders
vote to approve the Second Amended and Restated  Digital  Courier  Technologies,
Inc.  Incentive  Plan (the  "Incentive  Plan").  The  Incentive  Plan  will,  if
approved,   amend  and  restate  the  Amended  and  Restated   Digital   Courier
Technologies,  Inc. Incentive Plan (the "Existing Plan") in its entirety. If the
Incentive  Plan is not approved,  the Existing Plan will remain in effect in its
present form. The principal  substantive  differences between the Incentive Plan
and the Existing Plan are the following:

        o         The  Incentive  Plan  increases the number of shares of Common
                  Stock  that may be the  subject of  Options  and  Awards  from
                  2,500,000 to 6,000,000; and

        o         In order to maximize the Board of  Directors'  flexibility  in
                  granting  Options and Awards  pursuant to the Incentive  Plan,
                  the  Incentive  Plan  eliminates  the  following  restrictions
                  contained in the Existing Plan:

                  (i)      Restriction  capping the aggregate  grants of Options
                           and  Awards to any  Eligible  Individual  to  350,000
                           Shares per calendar year;
                  (ii)     Restriction  limiting the maximum  dollar amount that
                           any Eligible  Individual  may receive during the term

                           denominated  in dollars to 100% of the aggregate base

                           exercisable  for the first time by an Optionee during
                           any calendar year from exceeding $1,000,000.

The terms of the Incentive Plan are  summarized  below.  Capitalized  terms used
herein will, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings assigned to them in the
text of the Incentive  Plan,  which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex
I.

General

         The Incentive  Plan is intended to promote the interests of the Company
and its stockholders by providing directors,  officers, employees and others who
are  expected  to  contribute  to the success of the  Company  with  appropriate
incentives  and  rewards to  encourage  them to enter into and  continue  in the
employ of the Company  and to acquire a  proprietary  interest in the  long-term
success of the Company,  thereby  aligning  their  interest  more closely to the
interest of the stockholders.

         The Incentive Plan is intended to comply with the  requirements of Rule
16b-3 ("Rule 16b-3")  promulgated under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.  In  addition,   the  Incentive  Plan  may  provide   performance-based
compensation so as to be eligible for compliance  with Section 162(m)  ("Section
162(m)")  which denies a deduction by an employer  for certain  compensation  in
excess of $1  million  per year paid by a  publicly  traded  corporation  to the
following individuals who are employed at the end of the employer's taxable year
("Covered  Employees"):  the chief  executive  officer  and the four most highly
compensated  executive  officers (other than the chief executive  officer),  for
whom  compensation  disclosure  is  required  under  the  proxy  rules.  Certain
compensation,  including  compensation  based on the  attainment of  performance
goals,  is excluded from this deduction limit if certain  requirements  are met.
Among the  requirements  for  compensation to qualify for this exception is that
the material terms pursuant to which the compensation is to be paid be disclosed


                                       14



to and  approved by the  stockholders  in a separate  vote prior to the payment.
Accordingly,  if the Incentive  Plan is approved by  stockholders  and the other
conditions of Section  162(m)  relating to  performance-based  compensation  are
satisfied, compensation paid to Covered Employees pursuant to the Incentive Plan
will not be subject to the deduction limit of Section 162(m).

Summary of Terms

         The  Incentive  Plan  authorizes  an aggregate  of 6,000,000  shares of
Common Stock that may be subject to awards,  subject to  adjustment as described
below.  Such shares may be authorized and unissued  shares,  treasury  shares or
shares  acquired by the Company for purposes of the Incentive  Plan.  Generally,
shares subject to an award that remain  unissued upon expiration or cancellation
of the award will be available for other awards under the Incentive Plan. In the
event  that  the   Compensation   Committee  of  the  Board  of  Directors  (the
"Committee")  determines that any dividend or other  distribution,  stock split,
recapitalization,  reorganization, merger or other similar corporate transaction
or event  affects the Common Stock such that an  adjustment  is  appropriate  in
order to  prevent  dilution  or  enlargement  of the  rights  of the  Optionees,
Grantees or participants  under the Incentive Plan, then the Committee will make
such equitable  changes or  adjustments  as it deems  necessary to the aggregate
number of  shares  available  under the  Incentive  Plan,  the  number of shares
subject to each  outstanding  award,  and the exercise price of each outstanding
option or stock appreciation right.

         Awards  under  the  Incentive  Plan  may be  made  in the  form  of (i)
Incentive  Stock  Options,   (ii)  Non-Qualified  Stock  Options,   (iii)  Stock
Appreciation Rights, (iv) Dividend Equivalent Rights, (v) Performance Awards and
(vi)  Restricted  Stock.  Awards  may be granted  to such  directors,  officers,
employees and others  expected to  contribute  to the  long-term  success of the
Company and its subsidiaries as the Committee shall, in its discretion, select.

         The Incentive Plan will be  administered  by the Committee which shall,
at all  times,  consist  of two or more  persons  each  of  whom is an  "outside
director"  within  the  meaning of Section  162(m) and a  non-employee  director
within the meaning of Rule  16b-3.  The  Committee  is  authorized,  among other
things,  to construe,  interpret and  implement the  provisions of the Incentive
Plan,  to select the persons to whom awards will be granted,  to  determine  the
terms and conditions of such awards and to make all other determinations  deemed
necessary or advisable for the administration of the Incentive Plan.

Awards Under the Plan

         Stock Options.  The Committee  will determine each option's  expiration
date; provided,  however,  that no incentive stock opinion may be exercised more
than ten years after the date of grant.  The  purchase  price per share  payable
upon the exercise of an option (the "option exercise price") will be established
by the  Committee,  but may be no less than the Fair Market  Value of a share of
Common Stock on the date of grant.  The option  exercise price shall be paid, as
determined by the Committee in its discretion, in one of the following forms (or
any combination  thereof):  (i) in cash, (ii)  authorization  for the Company to
retain from the total number of Shares as to which the option is exercised  that
number of Shares  having a Fair Market Value on the date of  surrender  equal to
the aggregate  exercise price of the Shares as to which the option is exercised,
(iii) delivery of a properly  executed  exercise notice together with such other
documentation as the Committee and the broker,  if applicable,  shall require to
effect an exercise of the option and delivery to the Company of the sale or loan
proceeds  required  to pay the  exercise  price  and any  applicable  income  or
employment taxes, (iv) the transfer of Shares to the Company upon such terms and
conditions as determined by the Committee,  (v) any combination of the foregoing
methods of payment, or (vi) any other method approved by the Committee.

         Stock Appreciation  Rights.  Stock appreciation  rights ("SARs") may be
granted in connection with all or any part of, or  independently  of, any option
granted under the Incentive Plan. SARs granted  independently of any option will
be  subject to such  terms and  conditions  as to  exercisability,  vesting  and
duration as the Committee may  determine.  SARs granted in tandem with any stock


                                       15



option will be exercisable  only when and to the extent the option to which they
relate is  exercisable.  The grantee of SARs has the right to surrender the SARs
and receive from the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the excess of the Fair
Market  Value of a share of Common  Stock over the  exercise  price of the stock
appreciation  right for each share of Common Stock in respect of which such SARs
are being exercised.

         Dividend Equivalent Rights. Dividend Equivalent Rights ("DERs") entitle
the holder to receive  all or some  portion  of the cash  dividends  that are or
would be payable with  respect to Shares.  DERs may be granted in tandem with an
Option or Award,  and may be payable  currently or deferred until the lapsing of
the restrictions on the DERs or until the vesting, exercise, payment, settlement
or other lapse of  restrictions  on the related  Option or Award.  The terms and
conditions  applicable  to each DER shall be  specified in the  Agreement  under
which the DER is granted. DERs may be settled in cash or Shares or a combination
thereof, in a single installment or multiple installments.

         Performance  Awards.  Performance Units and Performance  Shares will be
awarded as the Committee may determine, and the vesting of Performance Units and
Performance  Shares will be based upon our  attainment of specified  performance
objectives  to be  expressed  by the  Committee  in terms of earnings per Share,
Share  price,  pre-tax  profits,  net  earnings,  return on  equity  or  assets,
revenues, EBITDA, market share or market penetration,  or any combination of the
foregoing (the "Performance Objectives"). The Agreements evidencing the Award of
Performance Units or Performance  Shares will set forth the terms and conditions
thereof including those applicable in the event of the Grantee's  termination of
employment.

         Performance  Units may be  denominated  in dollars  or in  Shares,  and
payments in respect of Performance Units will be made in cash, Shares, Shares of
Restricted  Stock or any  combination  of the  foregoing,  as  determined by the
Committee.  Payments in respect of vested  Performance  Units will be made after
the last day of the time period  specified by the  Committee  (the  "Performance
Cycle") to which the Award  relates,  unless the Award  Agreement  provides  for
deferred payment.  Performance Units vest when and to the extent the Performance
Objectives are satisfied for the Performance Cycle.

         The Committee shall provide, at the time an Award of Performance Shares
is made,  the time at which the actual  Performance  Shares  represented by such
Award shall be issued to Grantee; provided,  however, that no Performance Shares
shall be issued  until the Grantee  has  executed an  Agreement  evidencing  the
Award,  the  appropriate  blank  stock  powers  and,  in the  discretion  of the
Committee,  an escrow  agreement and any other documents which the Committee may
require.  At the  discretion  of the  Committee,  Performance  Shares  issued in
connection with an Award shall be deposited  together with the stock powers with
an escrow agent designated by the Committee. The Committee may determine whether
the Grantee shall have,  upon delivery of the  Performance  Shares to the escrow
agent, all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including
the right to vote and to  receive  dividends.  Until any  restrictions  upon the
Performance  Shares  shall  have  lapsed,  such  Performance  Shares  may not be
transferred  in  any  manner,   nor  may  they  be  delivered  to  the  Grantee.
Restrictions  upon  Performance  Shares awarded  hereunder  shall lapse and such
Performance  Shares  shall  become  vested  at  such  time  and on  such  terms,
conditions and  satisfaction of Performance  Objectives as the Committee may, in
its discretion, determined at the time an Award is granted.

         At the time the Award of Performance  Shares is granted,  the Committee
may determine  that the payment to the Grantee of dividends  declared or paid on
the  Performance  Shares  represented by such Award which have been issued us to
the Grantee shall be (i) deferred until the lapsing of the restrictions  imposed
upon such Performance  Shares and (ii) held by us for the account of the Grantee
until such time. The Committee may determine  whether deferred  dividends are to
be  reinvested  in Shares or held in cash and,  if held in cash,  whether to pay
interest on the account and the rate of such interest.  Payment of such deferred
dividends  shall be made upon the  lapsing of  restrictions  on the  Performance
Shares, and any dividends deferred in respect of any Performance Shares shall be
forfeited upon the forfeiture of such Performance Shares.


                                       16



         Upon the lapse of the restrictions on Performance Shares, the Committee
shall cause a stock  certificate  to be delivered  to the  Grantee,  free of all
restrictions  under the Incentive  Plan.  The Committee may modify or accept the
surrender of outstanding  Performance Awards and grant new Performance Awards in
substitution  for them, but no such  modification  may adversely alter the Award
without the Grantee's consent.

         Restricted  Stock.  The  Committee  will  determine  the  terms of each
Restricted Stock Award at the time of grant,  including the price, if any, to be
paid by the Grantee for the Restricted  Stock,  the  restrictions  placed on the
Restricted  Stock,  and the time or times when the  restrictions  will lapse. In
addition,  at the time of grant, the Committee,  in its discretion,  may decide:
(i) whether any dividends declared or paid on the Restricted Stock by us will be
paid to  Grantee  or will be held  for the  account  of the  Grantee  until  the
restrictions  imposed on the Restricted  Stock lapse,  (ii) whether any deferred
dividends will be reinvested in additional Shares or held in cash, (iii) whether
interest will be accrued on any deferred dividends held in cash and (iv) whether
any stock dividends paid will be subject to the  restrictions  applicable to the
Restricted Stock Award.  Payment of deferred  dividends in respect of Restricted
Stock will be made upon the lapsing of the  applicable  restrictions.  Dividends
deferred in respect of Restricted  Stock shall be forfeited  upon  forfeiture of
such Restricted Stock.

         Restricted  Stock shall be issued in the name of the Grantee  after the
Award is granted, provided that the Grantee has executed an Agreement evidencing
the Award,  the  appropriate  blank stock powers and, in the  discretion  of the
Committee,  an escrow  agreement and any other documents which the Committee may
require as a condition  to the  issuance  of the  Restricted  Stock.  Unless the
Committee provides otherwise in the Agreement, the Grantee shall have all of the
rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock, including the right to
vote and to receive  dividends.  Restricted  Stock may not be transferred in any
manner, nor delivered to the Grantee, until all restrictions upon the Restricted
Stock  have  lapsed.  Unless  otherwise  provided  at the  time  of  grant,  the
restrictions on the Restricted  Stock will lapse upon a Change in Control.  Upon
the lapse of the restrictions on the Restricted Stock, the Committee shall cause
a stock  certificate  representing  such Restricted Stock to be delivered to the
Grantee,  free of all  restrictions  under the Incentive Plan. The Committee may
modify  outstanding  Awards of  Restricted  Stock or  accept  the  surrender  of
outstanding  Restricted Stock (to the extent the restrictions on such Restricted
Stock have not yet lapsed) and grant new Awards in substitution for them.

Amendment of Incentive Plan and Change in Control

         The Board may  suspend,  discontinue,  revise,  terminate  or amend the
Incentive Plan at any time; provided, however, that stockholder approval will be
obtained  if and to the extent that the Board  deems it  appropriate  to satisfy
Section 162(m).

         In the event of a Change in  Control  (as  defined  in the  Plan),  all
Options  outstanding  on the  date  of  such  Change  in  Control  shall  become
immediately and fully  exercisable.  In addition,  to the extent set forth in an
Agreement  evidencing  the grant of an  Employee  Option,  an  Optionee  will be
permitted to surrender to us for cancellation  within sixty (60) days after such
Change in Control any  Employee  Option or portion of an Employee  Option to the
extent not yet  exercised  and the  Optionee  will be entitled to receive a cash
payment  in an amount  equal to the  excess,  if any of (x) (A) in the case of a
Nonqualified Stock Option, the greater of (1) the fair market value, on the date
preceding the date of surrender, of the Shares subject to the Employee Option or
portion thereof surrendered or (2) the Adjusted Fair Market Value (as defined in
the Plan) of the  Shares  subject  to the  Employee  Option or  portion  thereof
surrendered  or (B) in the case of an Incentive  Stock  Option,  the fair market
value, on the date preceding the date of surrender, of the Shares subject to the
Employee  Option  or a  portion  thereof  surrendered,  over  (y) the  aggregate
purchase  price for such Shares  under the  Employee  Option or portion  thereof
surrendered.  In the  event an  Optionee's  employment  with,  or  service  as a
Director of, us is terminated  by us following a Change in Control,  each Option
held by the Optionee that was  exercisable  as of the date of termination of the
Optionee's  employment or service shall remain  exercisable  for a period ending
not before the earlier of (A) the first  anniversary  of the  termination of the
Optionee's employment or service or (B) the expiration of the stated term of the
Option.

                                       17


         In the event of a Change in Control of Digital Courier, all SARs become
immediately  and fully  exercisable.  In addition,  to the extent set forth in a
particular  SAR  Agreement,  a Grantee may  receive  cash or Shares with a value
equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the greater of (1) the fair market value, on
the date  preceding the exercise,  of the Shares subject to the SAR exercise and
(2) the  Adjusted  Fair  Market  Value of the Shares on such date of such Shares
over (B) the fair market value,  on the date the SAR was granted,  of the Shares
subject to the SAR exercised. If a Grantee's employment with us is terminated by
us following a Change in Control, SARs held by the Grantee that were exercisable
on the date of  termination  shall remain  exercisable  for a period  ending not
before the earlier of (i) the first  anniversary of the  termination or (ii) the
expiration date of the SAR.

         In the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise determined by the
Committee,  all Performance Units will vest and the Grantee shall be entitled to
receive in respect of all Performance Units which become vested as a result of a
Change in Control a cash  payment  within  ten (10) days  after  such  Change in
Control in an amount as  determined by the Committee at the time of the Award of
such  Performance  Unit  and as set  forth in the  Agreement.  With  respect  to
Performance Shares,  unless otherwise determined by the Committee,  restrictions
shall lapse  immediately on all Performance  Shares.  The Agreements  evidencing
Performance Shares and Performance Units shall provide for the treatment of such
Awards  (or  portions  thereof)  which do not  become  vested as the result of a
Change in Control,  including, but not limited to, provisions for the adjustment
of applicable Performance Objectives.


                                       18


         In the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise determined by the
Committee  at the  time of the  grant  of an  Award  of  Restricted  Stock,  the
restrictions placed upon the Restricted Stock shall lapse.

         Notwithstanding  the foregoing or anything contained in the Plan or any
Agreement  to the  contrary,  in the event of a Change in Control  which is also
intended to  constitute a Pooling  Transaction,  the  Committee  shall take such
actions,  if any, as are specifically  recommended by an independent  accounting
firm  retained by the  Company to the extent  reasonably  necessary  in order to
assure that the Pooling  Transaction  will  qualify as such,  including  but not
limited to (i) deferring the vesting, exercise,  payment,  settlement or lapsing
of  restrictions  with respect to any Option or Award,  (ii)  providing that the
payment or  settlement  in respect of any Option or Award be made in the form of
cash,  Shares or  securities  of a successor  or acquiror of the  Company,  or a
combination of the foregoing,  and (iii) providing for the extension of the term
of any Option or Award to the extent necessary to accommodate the foregoing, but
not beyond the maximum term permitted for any Option or Award.

Plan Benefits

         The Company  cannot now determine  the exact number of Incentive  Stock
Options,  Non-Qualified  Stock  Options,  Stock  Appreciation  Rights,  Dividend
Equivalent Rights,  Performance Awards and Restricted Stock to be granted in the
future   to   the    executive    officers    named    under   the    "Executive
Compensation--Summary  Compensation  Table"  below,  to  all  current  executive
officers as a group, or to all employees  (including  executive  officers).  See
"Executive  Compensation--Options  Granted in Last  Fiscal  Year"  below for the
number of options granted under the Stock Option Plan to the executive  officers
named in the Summary Compensation Table for the year ended June 30, 1999.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

         The following  discussion  is a brief  summary of the principal  United
States Federal  income tax  consequences  under current  Federal income tax laws
relating to awards under the Incentive  Plan. This summary is not intended to be
exhaustive and, among other things,  does not describe  state,  local or foreign
income and other tax consequences.

         Non-Qualified Stock Options. An Optionee will not recognize any taxable
income upon the grant of a Non-Qualified  Stock Option.  The Company will not be
entitled to a tax deduction with respect to the grant of a  Non-Qualified  Stock
Option.  Upon exercise of a Non-Qualified  Stock Option,  the excess of the Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock on the exercise  date over the option  exercise
price will be taxable as compensation income to the Optionee and will be subject
to applicable withholding taxes. The Company will generally be entitled to a tax
deduction at such time in the amount of such compensation income. The Optionee's
tax  basis  for  the  Common  Stock  received  pursuant  to  the  exercise  of a
Non-Qualified  Stock  Option  will  equal  the  sum of the  compensation  income
recognized and the exercise price.

         In the event of a sale of Common Stock  received upon the exercise of a
Non-Qualified  Stock Option, any appreciation or depreciation after the exercise
date  generally  will be taxed  as  capital  gain or loss and will be  long-term
capital  gain or loss if the holding  period for such Common  Stock is more than
one year.

         Incentive  Stock  Options.  An Optionee  will not recognize any taxable
income at the time of grant or timely  exercise of an Incentive Stock Option and
the Company will not be entitled to a tax  deduction  with respect to such grant
or exercise.  Exercise of an Incentive Stock Option may,  however,  give rise to
taxable  compensation income subject to applicable  withholding taxes, and a tax
deduction to the Company,  if the Incentive  Stock Option is not exercised or if
the Optionee subsequently engages in a "disqualifying disposition," as described
below.

                                       19


         A sale or exchange by an Optionee of shares  acquired upon the exercise
of an Incentive Stock Option more than one year after the transfer of the shares
to such  Optionee  and  more  than  two  years  after  the  date of grant of the
Incentive  Stock  Option  will  result in any  difference  between  the net sale
proceeds and the exercise price being treated a long-term capital gain (or loss)
to the Optionee. If such sale or exchange takes place within two years after the
date of grant of the Incentive  Stock Option or within one year from the date of
transfer of the  Incentive  Stock Option  shares to the  Optionee,  such sale or
exchange will generally constitute a "disqualifying  disposition" of such shares
that will have the  following  results:  any excess of (i) the lesser of (a) the
Fair Market Value of the shares at the time of exercise of the  Incentive  Stock
Option and (b) the amount  realized  on such  disqualifying  disposition  of the
shares  over (ii) the option  exercise  price of such  shares,  will be ordinary
income to the Optionee, subject to applicable withholding taxes, and the Company
will be entitled to a tax  deduction in the amount of such  income.  Any further
gain or loss after the date of exercise  generally  will qualify as capital gain
or loss and will not result in any deduction by the Company.

         Stock Appreciation Rights and Dividend  Equivalents.  Upon the exercise
of a SAR  and/or  the  payment  of  Dividend  Equivalents,  the  recipient  will
recognize  ordinary  compensation  income in the amount of both the cash and the
fair market  value of the Shares  received  upon the  exercise of the SAR or the
payment of the Dividend  Equivalent,  and we will be entitled to a corresponding
deduction. In the event a recipient receives Shares upon the exercise of the SAR
or the payment of the Dividend  Equivalent,  any Shares so acquired  will have a
tax basis  equal to their  fair  market  value on the date of such  exercise  or
payment, and the holding period of the shares will commence on the day following
that  date.  Upon  a  subsequent  sale  of  such  Shares,  any  appreciation  or
depreciation  after the exercise date  generally will be taxed as a capital gain
or loss and will be  long-term  capital  gain or loss if the holding  period for
such Shares is more than one (1) year.

         Performance Shares and Performance Units. Generally, a Grantee will not
recognize any taxable income and we will not be entitled to a deduction upon the
award of  Performance  Shares  or  Performance  Units.  At the time the  Grantee
receives the distribution of Shares or cash in respect of the Performance Shares
or the Performance  Units,  the fair market value of Shares or the amount of any
cash received in payment for such Awards  generally is taxable to the Grantee as
ordinary income and, subject to our deduction limitation under Section 162(m) of
the Code, may be deducted by us.

         Restricted  Stock.  The recipient of an award of Restricted  Stock will
not recognize any income upon the receipt of Restrict Stock unless the recipient
elects under Section 83(b) of the Code to recognize ordinary income in an amount
equal to the fair market value of the  Restricted  Stock at the time of receipt.
Such election  must be make in writing to the Internal  Revenue  Service  within
thirty (30) days of receipt of the award of Restricted Stock. If the election is
made,  the recipient  will not be allowed a deduction  for amounts  subsequently
required to be returned to Digital  Courier.  If the  election is not made,  the
recipient  will  generally  recognize  ordinary  income,  on the  date  that the
restrictions to which the Restricted Stock are subject are removed, in an amount
equal to the fair market value of such Shares on such date, less any amount paid
for such Shares. At the time the recipient  recognizes ordinary income,  subject
to  applicable  reporting and  withholding  requirements,  we will  generally be
entitled to a deduction in the same amount.

         Upon the subsequent sale or other  disposition of any Restricted  Stock
with respect to which the  recipient has  recognized  ordinary  income (i.e.,  a
Section 83(b) election was previously made or the  restrictions  were previously
removed),  the recipient will realize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to
the difference  between the amount realized on the sale or other  disposition of
the Restricted Stock and the recipient's basis in such Shares.


         For the  reasons  stated  herein,  the Board of  Directors  unanimously
recommends that  stockholders  vote FOR approval of the AMENDMENT TO THE AMENDED
AND RESTATED  CERTIFICATE OF  INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED
SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.

                                 PROPOSAL No. 3
                 RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

         The Audit  Committee  of the Board of  Directors  has  selected  Arthur
Andersen LLP as the  independent  public  accountants to audit the  consolidated
financial  statements of the Company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999. A
member of such firm is expected to be present at the Annual  Meeting,  will have
an  opportunity  to make a statement  if so desired,  and will be  available  to
respond to appropriate questions.

         If the  stockholders  of the  Company do not ratify  the  selection  of
Arthur  Andersen LLP, or if such firm should decline to act or otherwise  become
incapable  of  acting,  or if its  employment  is  discontinued,  the  Board  of
Directors  or  the  Audit  Committee  will  appoint  other  independent   public
accountants.

         Ratification  of the selection of Arthur  Andersen LLP as the Company's
independent  public  accountants will require the affirmative vote of a majority
of the Common Stock present and properly voting at the Annual Meeting.

         THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE
SELECTION  OF  ARTHUR   ANDERSEN  LLP  AS  THE  COMPANY'S   INDEPENDENT   PUBLIC
ACCOUNTANTS.


                              STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

         Stockholder  proposals to be  presented  at the 2000 Annual  Meeting of
Stockholders  must be received at the Company's  executive  offices at 136 Heber
Avenue,  Suite 204,  P.O.  Box 8000,  Park City,  UT,  84060,  addressed  to the
