    I'm pretty sure it is, look at this excerpt from their .com site:

    "Dear Ciao member,

    We are delighted to announce an exciting change. As part of the Microsoft family, Ciao US is being integrated into our new search engine, Bing. You'll soon find familiar Ciao merchants and product listings on Bing Shopping, and you'll be able to save even more money with the Bing cashback program."
