Re:	eConnect - Form SB-2

Dear Sir/Madame:

We have acted as counsel to eConnect, a Nevada
corporation ("Company"), in connection with its
Registration Statement on Form SB-2 relating to the
registration of 61,000,000 shares of its common stock
("Shares"), $0.001 par value per Share, at a maximum
offering price of $0.19 per Share.

In our representation we have examined such
documents, corporate records, and other instruments
as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for
purposes of this opinion, including, but not limited
to, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the
Company.

Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that the
Company is duly organized and validly existing as a
corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada,
and that the Shares, when issued and sold, will be
validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement.

Sincerely,


/s/  Shawn F. Hackman
Shawn F. Hackman, Esq.
