Company Description:
Regifast is a helpful tool that will fill out forms for us on the internet. When we go to a registration form or purchase something online, Regifast will automatically fill out the form for us using the information we have provided in the Regifast
Manager. The manager can be updated to keep our most current information by click the blue icon by our clock on our desktop. Since it can offer this wonderful tool free of charge, whenever Regifast is used to complete a form, it will display a new
window with its partner offers. It refers to consumers who have Regifast on their system as Subscribers. If at any time we would like to stop using Regifast, simply uninstall the software.
