It can be inconvenient if you want to send money from your PayPal account to someone who uses a different digital payment app. Visa is looking to become a sort of middleman and solve for the compatibility problem with “interoperability”. And in doing so, it wants to reach gig workers, creators, and online sellers.
Visa announced a new pilot program on Tuesday designed to help people move money between different digital payment apps – and without requiring them to have a Visa card. “Visa+ allows you to pay and get paid across different payment apps, so you can keep using your preferred one. Visa technology makes it possible,” the company explained.
