              Digital River Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

                     Q3 revenue up 42 percent year-over-year

     MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 26, 2006--Digital River, Inc.
(NASDAQ:DRIV), a global leader in e-commerce outsourcing, today reported its
third quarter 2006 financial results.

     Q3 Revenue

     Third quarter revenue totaled $75.3 million, an increase of 42 percent from
revenue of $53.2 million in the third quarter of 2005.

     Q3 GAAP Results

     Third quarter GAAP net income was $14.8 million, or $0.33 per diluted
share, including $3.5 million of stock-based compensation expense. This compared
to net income of $12.4 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, including no
stock-based compensation expense in the third quarter of 2005. These results
represent a year-over-year increase of 20 percent in GAAP net income and 6
percent in GAAP diluted net income per share.

     Q3 Non-GAAP Results

     Based on the Company's non-GAAP measurements, third quarter non-GAAP net
income was $18.7 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to net income, on
a similar basis, of $13.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share in the third
quarter of 2005. This represents a year-over-year increase of 42 percent in
non-GAAP net income and 32 percent in non-GAAP diluted net income per share.

     Non-GAAP net income is computed by starting with GAAP pre-tax income as
reported on the Company's statement of operations, adding back amortization of
acquisition-related intangibles, and beginning in 2006, stock-based compensation
expense, to calculate non-GAAP pre-tax income. This figure is then taxed at 31
percent, the Company's anticipated long-term effective tax rate, to arrive at
non-GAAP net income. This amount is then divided by fully-diluted GAAP shares
outstanding, which includes the impact of the Company's contingent convertible
notes, to derive non-GAAP diluted net income per share. To provide further
clarity, a detailed reconciliation on the comparability of the GAAP and non-GAAP
data has been provided in table form following the financial statements
accompanying this announcement.

     "Our ability to execute on our business objectives contributed to our solid
third quarter financial performance and strong cash flows," said Joel Ronning,
Digital River's CEO. "The announcements this week of our expanded relationships
with Symantec and Microsoft serve as further testimony to our ability to grow
our business and deliver a compelling value proposition for our clients. We
believe we are well positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities before us
in 2007."

     Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006, Revenue

     For the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, the Company reported
revenue of $224.6 million. This represents a 41 percent increase from revenue of
$158.9 million in the similar period of the prior year.

     Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006, GAAP Results

     For the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, GAAP net income was
$44.5 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, including $10.4 million of
stock-based compensation expense. This compared to net income of $36.6 million,
or $0.92 per diluted share, including no stock-based compensation expense for
the same period in 2005.

     Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006, Non-GAAP Results

     Through September 30, 2006, based on the Company's non-GAAP measurements,
non-GAAP net income was $58.2 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, compared to
net income on a similar basis of $40.1 million, or $0.96 per diluted share for
the same period in 2005.

     Q4 2006 Guidance

     Forward-looking guidance for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2006,
is as follows:

     --   Revenue of $82.4 million;
