    The concept behind the world’s first I-gaming bank is neither original nor groundbreaking -- current online banking bigwigs PayPal and Neteller have been paving that road since the late ‘90s.

    A Note from Editor Christopher A. Krafcik

    I trust you found this mailer a useful primer on some of the more weighty developments currently affecting the I-gaming industry's electronic-commerce sector. With financial services companies and technologically savvy I-gaming operators developing and licensing proprietary payments solutions side by side, the sector is bound, we think, to become increasingly more competitive.
