NPP is fantastic. (Often referred to as PayID, Fast Payment or Osko, depending on your bank here in Australia). Last Friday I was able to buy an item from a friend while we both standing in his driveway - he confirmed the payment on his account. He just provided his BSB (6 digit bank number) and account and I did the transfer. We both use non major banks. I have used it to settle split bills with colleagues after lunches. Usually you just link your mobile number or email address. All without bank fees or going anywhere near Visa, MasterCard or Paypal and confirmed in under a minute.

You can even a phone number instead of use BSB and acc no. Super convenient

Thanks for sharing these links! If someone wants to start a Wikipedia page enumerating global instant payment systems, I'm happy to chip some fiat in. Email in profile.
