$cashtags - Post your "TAG" and "CASH" Domains

[Jason.tv]

I was at a tech meetup in Boca Raton, Florida and someone swiftly mentioned about "Cashtags"; I had no idea what they were.

I have been hesitant to post about Cashtags since I did not think it would have any relevance to domaining - this is not the case.

Fortune.com already posted wrote about it!

you can read the full article here - http://www.domainmagic.com/cashtags-social-networking-of-the-future/

I registered Cashtag / io and Cashtags / io

Would be interesting to see what 3rd party applications this would be used for development.

Hah! US-only.

Decided to use...

$purse - Money Bags!

And Dwolla is still better.
https://www.dwolla.com/

Dwolla charges per transaction. I've never used them. Does the money go instantly into the recipients bank account?

 

[iowadawg]

up to and including 10 bucks?
NO CHARGE.
From then on, the charge is a straight:
25 cents!!!!
Why the state of Iowa moved to Dwolla.
Cheaper for them than credit cards, debit cards and checks.
No, it goes to Dwolla until the recipient has the money sent to their bank.
And all funds held at the Credit Union Veridian....down the street from us.

Go to Dwolla and read all about it, etc etc etc.

No, it goes to Dwolla until the recipient has the money sent to their bank.

That's why cashtag is better imo. I don't want a middleman holding my money until I withdraw it. Just get it to my bank account now please.

Both services are free. One puts money in my bank instantly, the other holds it. No brainer...

Okay, if your business requires money in the bank instantly?
Time to rethink your business.
pay 1.5% on a $5,000 sale
or
pay 25 cents on a $5,000 sale

Freaking no brainer for sure sayeth I....

I believe personal transactions peer to peer are free.

Does McDonald's have to withdraw their money from MasterCard when I buy a Big Mac? Seems archaic with today's technology.

A little hint. You can have up to 3 $cashtags per account. Happy hunting!

Nice! All going to the same bank account right? It makes sense to get my full name too, but I went with something generic that could be more flexible for who knows what in the future. $seed

You can only use one at a time within each account. Example:

I have $bingo and $cheers in the same account. Bingo is ready to accept money but cheers will give you the message, "oops". But I can switch to cheers whenever need be.

By Tuesday? What's the hold-up?

 

[BostonDomainer]

How do you get multiple names in one account? It tells me have to link a debit card first before I can get a name. What's the process? Thanks

Go to your tag and put in a new one. Hit "set" and your done.

 

[BostonDomainer]

Go to your tag and put in a new one. Hit "set" and your done.

When you do that, you no longer have the old one. It says "you can only change this 2 more times."

You can create 3 tags per account and switch back and forth whenever you want.

 

[BostonDomainer]
