And in Sweden there's Swish. The writing is on the wall, if it's not this initiative there'll be another I'm sure, sooner or later.

  Italy has Satispay which has pretty good user penetration, at least among the younger crowd. Satispay's killer feature is that it's aimed heavily at paying bar and restaurant checks, which is more common than sending money between acquaintances. So if you share your location with your app, and the restaurant you're in is a Satispay merchant, it will show up automatically as a receiver without the need to scan codes or anything. I'm sure other countries' payment apps have their own neat little features that others don't. Best case scenario would be for a common infrastructure to be adopted by all of them, and then they can interoperate and compete on feature sets, or even merge.

    Satispay is nice, though I don't understand why it has that funny mechanism with a weekly limit. Sometimes it is quite inconvenient.

      Revolut is growing very aggressively in Europe and Australia and it's already doing cross-border instant cross-currency transfers (mobile to mobile).
