It competes with PayPal, but they really just borrowed the feature from ING Direct. ING has let you send money to anybody with an email address for a while.

- patio11 15y agoYou need an email address and the bank account information, don't you? I'd love it to be otherwise, but getting banking information from e.g. my younger brothers is a lot trickier than just emailing them.
- bricestacey 15y agoCorrect. Here is exact quote on ING's P2P payment screen "To send a P2P Payment, you'll need the recipient's email address and account information."
- mrgordon 15y agoHuh. Thanks for pointing that out. I'd never actually used it but IIRC they always advertise that you can send money to any email address.
