Also #Monero's :monero: low cost, stability, and ease of use do lends itself aa a alternative to #MoneyTransfers.
Personally I wished that the block rate wasn't 2 Minutes but 1 Second so that transactions and confirmations would be on part with #ec payments like #gurocard, #Maestro, #Visa, #MasterCard and #ApplePay, #SamsungPay, #WeChatPay, #AliPay, etc.

Well I took a look at those ages ago.
#CashApp and #Venmo are not available in the #EU and when I looked at others like #WeChatPay or #AliPay they don't support customers in #Germany either...
So aside from #PayPal there generally is only wiring money with #SEPA transfers and #Monero...

@FawnOverFun AFAIK both #CashApp & #Venmo are U.S. exclusive since they don't want to comply with stricter #AML laws in the #EU.
Sadly, #PayPal seems to basically be the monopoly, as #WeChatPay doesn't work outside of china and #AliPay won't tell you it doesn't work until after their #KYC shit.
Sadly, #Monero acceptance is basically nonexistant and #prepaid #debit card systems like #GeldKarte are not only rarely international and they decline hard like #SMS- & #MobileBanking.

Betalappar har lett balkanisering av betalningar igen. Där man för fem år sedan kunde komma och betala med Visa, Mastercard eller Apple Pay godtas nu bara två olika inhemska betalappar eller cash. Som att stå i Danmark för 25 år sedan och bara kunna med Dankort eller kontant. #dankort #alipay
Interesting contrast. #automated #retail #amazon

" In 2021, China's automated retail market was valued at around 28.27 billion yuan, surging from 13.59 billion yuan in 2017. The automated store is a new concept of retail, which requires no personnel and no cashier. Consumers could pay for their purchases via mobile applications. "

#MobilePayment in #China:
"In the second quarter of 2020, Alipay held 55.6% of the third-party mobile payment market share, while #WeChatPay took up 38.8%, according to an iResearch report. A 2020 Brookings Institution report suggested that #Alipay had 1.2 billion monthly users in 2019 and #WeChat Pay users exceeded one billion in 2018. The transaction volume of #mobile #payments in China rose to 310.3 trillion yuan (US$46.2t) in 2021, from 253.4 trillion yuan in 2020."

Estoy echando un vistazo a las oficinas de #MoneyGram en #Sevilla y veo que son locutorios o copisterías
Parece que son sitios desde los que los inmigrantes que trabajan aquí, enviaban dinero a o recibían dinero desde sus países de origen a través de cryptos sin intermediación de entidades financieras o servicio postal
En 2017 Apr.17 #MoneyGram fue comprada por uS$ 1.204 mn por #AntFinancial matriz de #AliPay - una parte del imperio de #JackMa #AliBaba-
#antfinancial #alipay #jackma #alibaba #moneygram #sevilla
“After the authorities squashed #Ant’s listing, the Chinese central bank took advantage of tech disarray to test digital renminbi payments via digital wallet apps, notably #Alipay. Those pilot studies were successful. As the rollout widens, private payments groups may be reduced to being providers of plumbing in a financial system where payments are closely monitored and controlled by the government.”
