1. THE BEGINNING

This innovation initially came to life when…

MyMoney came to life over the years when we attempted to search for solutions and products that allowed us to manage existing products search for new or better offerings. The products are always broken down by retail and business. We realized a very fine line between the needs of business and individuals so we designed a product range and brand under MyMoney that provided tools to help manage an individual that was in many cases the same person that was the owner of the small business. We provided a suite of products called MyMoney.
