Ribbon Launches P2P Payments App. No app or account required
- gkoberger 13y agoI've been using this for a few weeks, and it's great. It's the Square Cash equivalent of "billing" or requesting money. Just like it's easy to CC cash@square.com when sending money, it's been great to be able to just send my URL to people when I'm collecting money.
- mamcx 13y agoOnly for US?
- kloncks 13y ago(I work at Ribbon) Unfortunately, yes. I'm an Egyptian national myself, so I completely understand this concern and would love to add it very soon but given regulations, compliance and financial service hurdles, it will likely take a while.
- praxeologist 13y agoI couldn't find your merchant agreement easily. Can I sell electronic cigarettes with your service? Some others like WePay and Balanced allowed it for a while and ended up changing their ToS but grandfathering vendors in. So, I have been waiting for a new payment service to come about.
- viame 13y agoCanada soon? :)
- bjtitus 13y agoDon't see any kind of FAQ or further information. Would be nice to have that at the bottom of the page. Does it work throughout the US? Square Cash doesn't work in a few states.
- kloncks 13y agoOur apologies! We'll be adding in a FAQ very soon. In mean-time, email me if you have any questions? hany@ribbon.co
- dispense 13y agoSorry for hijacking, but does Ribbon have an opinion on Bitcoin?
- adamnemecek 13y agoAnd more importantly Dogecoin? I'm only half joking, IRL Dogecoin tipping would be awesome. I'm pretty sure that it could also drive adoption. If every user got a couple dogecoins with the app and saw how easy it is to send it to other people, they might start using it with real money. (I'm in no way insinuating that Dogecoin is any less of a currency than dollar).
- kloncks 13y agoThere's a ton of interest regarding bitcoins specifically in the office. We'll see what we can do.
- gailees 13y agoVenmo got bought by Paypal. Maybe this will replace them before they go downhill.

- dennisz 13y agoAwesome product that's mobile oriented too. It's nice for my friends to not have to download an app to pay me back for one meal.
- mslate 13y agoHow do they make money?
- kloncks 13y agoWe make all of our money from the merchant product that 10k merchants are using. We've been doing that for a while now. (o.ribbon.co) It allows us to build a consumer version and give it away for free :)
