How can Intuit do both...Legally? CKFR must be getting something out of this.

I think you are wrong on the date of that agreement, but I'll check it out anyway. I agree that Intuit would not work with M&I unless the could do so legally. The press release stated "exclusive major integrated", so it depends how "major" is defined in the contract.
In any case I think the point of the contract was to keep CheckFree in and TP out.

Gregg:

Citi & M&I are two of the most systems-savvy banks in the U.S. Their recent announcements re bill payment indicate to me that the "ducks are quacking", i.e. the public is finally stepping up in serious numbers to pay their bills electronically. We're about to find out if CKFR's advantages in systems, service and goodwill are real or figments of Pete Kight's imagination.
