With peer-to-peer payment services like Square Cash, Venmo, and PayPal there’s no need to carry cash anymore. These mobile apps make splitting checks, paying friends back, and lending money to family members as easy as tapping your finger. Let’s look at them, and decide which one rises above the others.
Square Cash, Venmo, and PayPal each have free apps for iOS and Android devices. Signing up for each service is quick and free, and you only need a connection to a data or Wi-Fi network to use them. Square Cash is available to residents of all 50 U.S. states, but no U.S. territories at the time of this writing.
