PayPal Offers Text Message Payment
Customers of the PayPal online payment service can now use their cell phones to instantly send money, buy items or donate to charities.
Viacom Incs MTV, the National Basketball Association and News Corps 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment Inc. are among those already accepting PayPal Mobile service for payment, PayPal said Thursday.
With the overwhelming popularity of mobile phones, the time has never been better for the merging of e-commerce and wireless devices, said PayPal President Jeff Jordan.
PayPal Mobile allows users in the United States and Canada to instantly send money by sending text messages.
This looks like it could be a handy service especially for those in a hurry.
