E-Z CA$H
Recently I've been obsessed with money. Not my normal area of interest, which might be the reason I'm now hyper-sensitive to it π ... but for various reasons I've been focused on the generation, flow, and exchange of money.
My friend Vickie and I even meet weekly for a Money Club that started after we read Jen Sincero's You Are A Badass At Making Money. I loved this book because it takes on money not as a heavy topic but more as a way to up your energy... a game... a Hi-Vibe way of being in the world.
And of course whatever you focus on expands, so in the last few weeks I've been fascinated with everything from digital and crypto-currency to money apps.
There are currently several money exchange avenues but none have jelled and caught fire. Banks offer their programs and PayPal's Venmo is popular among the kids these days.
But what I want is an E-ZPass for the Internet where I can exchange money not just out in the world but also online without a big deal every time I want to do it.
I think the Cash App is almost there.
Simple, beautiful interface, and I think with this added game-changing feature it could be the new face of money...
My idea π‘
Create a CA$H icon/button on social media bar (& π ) for websites that links to their account so you can micro-tip/spend until you want to CA$H out.
I suggested this idea first for Square but I think it's even a better fit under the CA$H umbrella. Cash-tags can be used with url's for every site on web even if they don't want to sign up until there is money donated/sent to them. Imagine how it can transform the way charities, journalists, artists, politicians, etc. are funded.
We use E-ZPass to get around tollways, E-Z CA$H can be how we move money.
