There's also CashApp Your bank likely has Zelle under "transfers." Check it out. Most all now do. Venmo is owned by PayPal and is their peer to peer money transfer system for PERSONAL transactions which is their answer to Cash-App. Then there's Apple Cash (not the same as Apple PAY), Samsung Pay, Google Pay, Android Pay and maybe a couple others I missed all pretty much do the same, allows you to instantly send cash to family and friends between bank accounts. Despite the fears of many, they are quite safe but like anything in the world they can be abused if one is careless or gullible. .
