Off the top of my head:
- Google Wallet
- Square Cash (now "Cash App")
- Venmo (blegh. Owned by PayPal)
The first two allow you to send and receive money via a debit card, no direct banking info needed. I've never used Venmo but I imagine it's the same.
Facebook has a similar way to send money, no idea how that one works. Google Wallet funds can be sent via Gmail.
The apps auto deposit money. Square takes a bit longer unless you pay them.
- ghshephard 9y agoI spent the better part of a week trying to get google cash working - submitted passport, utility bills - they kept claiming my passport picture wasn't clear enough. Eventually I gave up and just used paper cash - which is what we, a pretty much 100% highly technical office, use to pay each other. I love venmo - it's worked well for me. And I use Apple pay multiple times a day, every day. And been a PayPal user for 15 years - but no common thread with colleagues in the office. We just need something that we can be certain everyone can use. Zelle might be that thing.
- heartbreak 9y agoIn a similar anecdote, all 32 members of my law school section use Venmo to submit section dues and dispurse refunds from those dues when someone hosts a gathering, etc. A large group of non-technical users signed up without blinking.
