Twitpay.me - Send Payments Using Twitter

Twitpay is a young startup that has a specific aim, namely letting anybody send payments using the popular micro-blogging platform.

This is implemented in the following manner.



First of all, you have to fund a Twitpay account via PayPal. The amount of this account can vary between 10 and 50 US$. Once the account has been created, you can make payments to any person simply be tweeting. That is, if you want to pay Mark Wolffe $2 all you have to do is enter a message like “@MW twitpay $2 for services rendered” and the corresponding amount will be debited from your Twitpay account.

On the other hand, to see if someone has paid you using Twitpay all you have to do is keep an eye open on the replies tab of your Twitter stream. The site also includes a balance page that will provide you that information.

When all is said and done, Twitpay stands as a viable alternative for those who are becoming more and more addicted to Twitter and have started thinking about using for as many tasks as possible.
