SnapCash- Newest Payment Option?

[Silver]

Surprisingly I'm pretty sure that is how you send money on it, just a $ and the amount followed.

I'm sure they've got to implement something like a : "Are you sure you want to send $XX.XX?" window.

I think this is an interesting addition to SnapChat and would like to see how it turns out in the future.

"I saved that nekkid picture of you, send me $15 now..." Hey - SO convenient!

It's going to be a fast method for pornstars or snapchat girls.

+1 exactly what i said. Wouldent trust this shit as snapchat was hacked before, whats to say they wont get everyones credit card details?

Lol guarantee there's a little more to it than that. Snapcash is cool but I don't think it offers much new value to Sythe users. It's only available within the US, and only through debit. You can send people money through debit on Paypal already, and there are less constraints (country, payment method).

SnapCash money will be subject to reversals in the same way as Paypal money. It will also have fees on either the buyer or seller side.

I'd expect there to be. The video made it seem like that
And the reversal side was there to be expected.

It's a bold move. Snapchat is branching out aggressively from what was a simple service.

They started with their minimum viable product (MVP) and have expanded out from there. Now that they have a strong and continually active userbase, they can begin integrating services such as Snapcash which actually generate revenue. The idea that Snapchat has beat Facebook to the payments game is unbelievable. Integrating payments within social networking is far from a new idea, but SnapChat seems to be the first to implement it in a simple way. You're ordering a pizza with 2 friends and it cost $14.00? No problem, my friend pays and I send him $4.65 for me 1/3 of the pizza by pressing a couple buttons on my phone.

What's the alternative? Break the pizza up into thirds at the cashier and each individually swipe our debit cards? This is an obvious problem that tons of people experience everyday.

Dont know if it is just us dutchies, but we have mobile banking apps that already allow us to do so within 20 seconds (including signing in, making the transfer, and confirming it).

So over here it would not be such a gamechanger.
