UseMyFunds

More than 1.6 billion computer users around the world have access to UseMyFunds according to their website. UseMyFunds, is a product of UseMyServices that works a lot like paying bills online from a regular bank account. UseMyBank is the very same product that was once known as UseMyBank. UseMyFunds works as an intermediary between online poker sites and poker players, so they themselves are actually not a bank or an online eWallet like PayPal. They’re more of a middle man that makes it possible for poker players to process transactions using existing internet banks. The Bank of Montreal opposed UseMyBank’s initial trademark application under that name.
