Visa has joined forces with PayPal and Venmo to create a new service that aims to help people move money between digital payment apps. Called Visa+, the new service will let users transfer money between different apps more quickly and securely. Users will not need an actual Visa card but will instead need to create a personalized payment address linked to their Venmo or PayPal account. Increasing interoperability even further, Visa partners DailyPay, i2c, TabaPay and Western Union will also integrate Visa+ within their platforms.
