ZIPPAY IS BEING rolled out from today by AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB.
The in-app banking service, similar to Revolut, aims to make instant mobile payments quicker by using phone numbers rather than IBANs.
Zippay is an attempt by Ireland’s main banks to offer a function similar to Revolut (which has been available in Ireland for more than a decade) within their own apps, without customers needing to use to a separate payment platform.
You may not see the service appear on your individual banking app just yet, as the rollout begins today on a phased basis.
And if you’re wondering what you need to know ahead of it landing on your phone (if you decide to use it at all), The Journal has a guide here.
So we wanted to ask: Do you think you will use Zippay?
