Saw it on the news today, could be very handy, if it is safe of course.

That's where I saw it, looked on apple app store and it's there, that's all I know so far. I know they are stopping cheques in a few years and card machines are not cheap, so maybe this could be the way forward.

You can already accept card payments using your mobile phone, for example with Payatrader and the www.payatrader.mobi service.

At the moment Pingit is only available for Barclays account customers. From a customer perspective it's a bit fiddly i.e ask your customer to ping you a payment. What's that most will say!

Far better for you to process the card via your phone, iPad or a virtual terminal.

My opinion and yes, probably a bit biased.

Take a look at www.payatrader.com. There's a live offer on the forum if you want to join that saves £25 using code CLEANITUP.

Non-Barclays customers with a current account can only receive payments – but soon they'll be able to send money too

What a cool idea, hadnt heard of this sort of thing. Downloaded it this morning, piece of cake to set up, i sent money to my wife, also with barclays.  Bit fiddly for her to set up, needs to verify mobile number, then you have to check your bank statements for a transaction (quickest done online). Took me 5 mins to set her up with it, but im quick on PC, a non pc literate person and it will take forever.

I love the concept of it.  And its free, no bank charges (for personal customers).

After looking into it, the only issue that I see is for the customers to set up and use it

I think they might struggle to compete with Barclays and other major banks that are sure to follow suit.

Assuming both phones have the app installed, they simply send you a text message and the money is there in your bank instantly.
