PayPal Launches Revised IPhone App With Bump Integration
By Chris Weiss
Your favorite online payment vendor has reworked its iPhone app and offered some significant improvements to simplify sending and receiving payments via mobile. The biggest change of the redesign is that Bump technology is now integrated. Bump is a start-up that offers an app that allows users to make payments simply by bumping iPhones and entering a transaction amount. Other changes include an added feature allowing you to send payment ‘requests’ to contacts and a withdrawal feature for transferring your money to a bank account. The app also benefits from a new look and feel.
More pedestrian additions of the upgrade include a bill splitter and tip calculator for dining out, and an alert feature that lets you know it’s time to make a payment. The app also pulls in the ‘PayPal for Kids’ program. Learn more here. [via TechCrunch]
