Popular payments app Cash App can be used to make payments to friends and family without worrying about exchanging bank details. <\/p>
As of 15 September 2024, Cash App is withdrawing from the UK market. So, if you’re in search of an alternative, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s our roundup of your options.<\/p>
Revolut<\/a> has several different accounts to choose from, but all of them allow you to send money to other Revolut users in the app completely free of charge. All you’ll need is the recipient’s phone number, email, Revtag or QR code and they should receive their payment within 20 seconds. <\/p> Alternatively, to send money to someone who doesn’t use Revolut, you can create a payment link in the app. You can use this for requesting payments too. Simply tap on ‘Payments’, tap ‘New’, then ‘Create a payment’ link and select whether you want to send or request money and how much. <\/p> Once sent, the recipient has 7 days to accept your payment. If you’re requesting money, the sender needs to make the payment within 10 days before the link expires. <\/p> Another benefit of using Revolut is that it’s easy to send money to those living overseas. International payments can be made through the app in 36 currencies, although fees may apply.<\/p> Revolut often has sign-up bonuses for new customers<\/a> which are worth reviewing before signing up.<\/div>
