PokerStars allowing direct deposits from US bank accounts

Pokerati is reporting today that select US players are being given the option by PokerStars to make deposits directly into their PokerStars accounts from their US bank accounts with echecks - an option that essentially hasn’t been available to US players for several months now.

It seems that at the moment PokerStars is making the option available to a select number of US clients, with expansion of the service planned for the near future. The PokerStars webpage still reflects their old policy regarding echecks for US and Canadian customers. However, several US players report being greeted with a screen upon login to Stars that offered them the ability to send EFTs directly from their bank accounts into their PokerStars accounts.

The payment processing backbone for the service is apparently provided by a company called DUN Finance. Their website offers only the barest of details regarding the organization.
