Opened Bank Accounts with @getMoven and @Simplify to see how they work web & #mobile – will see how #online #banking is useful here

Two new financial services entities have come into the market recently: Moven.com and Simple.com.Simple started out as a credit card based mobile solution while Moven was the creation by the now famous Brett King who drove us all to sell online banking solutions that were guided by his philosophy in his book Banking 2.0.  Now he has moved to Banking 3.0 and this site/offering is morphing to the gaming approach he talked about.  In the end these are both banks backed by the wholesale bank The Bancorp.  That’s an amazing entity in itself.  They white label as a wholesale bank many other specialized financial institutions, process payments, do all this in an efficient way. If you think about it – the representation of that financial institution, companies like Moven and Simple, companies like PayPal and Greendot – well, that really is the future of banking.

I’ll fiddle around with these two accounts and let you know what I think.
