Recode reports (https://www.recode.net/2017/4/27/15412404/apple-venmo-competitor-money-transfer-cash-peer-to-peer-service) that the company wants to announce the payments-between-friends feature later this year — although plans can change.</p> <p>Recode says that Apple has also held talks with Visa about the possibility of creating virtual Apple prepaid debit cards. This would allow users to spend the money they get from the new peer-to-peer payments service instantly without having to wait for the money to clear in their bank account.</p> <p> <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2017/04/27/report-apple-in-talks-to-extend-apple-pay-with-person-to-person-payments-offer-its-own-prepaid-debit-cards/#more-479196" class="more-link">more…[/url]</p><img alt="" border="0" src="https://pixel.wp.com/b.gif?host=9to5mac.com&blog=22754319&post=479196&subd=9to5mac&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" /><img alt="" border="0" src="https://pixel.wp.com/b.gif?host=9to5mac.com&blog=22754319&post=479196&subd=9to5mac&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" /><div class="feedflare"> <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/9To5Mac-MacAllDay?i=R2rCKqqcE8Y:Z9fUWqPIFZE:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img> (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/9To5Mac-MacAllDay?a=R2rCKqqcE8Y:Z9fUWqPIFZE:D7DqB2pKExk) </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/9To5Mac-MacAllDay/~4/R2rCKqqcE8Y" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> Source: Report: Apple in talks to extend Apple Pay with person-to-person payments, offer its own prepaid debit cards (http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/9To5Mac-MacAllDay/~3/R2rCKqqcE8Y/) |
