Everyone? I know it's a thing here in Germany too, but most people here are still at the older banks with offices in many towns. Though the neo brokers and banks are seemingly becoming more relevant, which is good I think?

Made a trip to LA with the kids this summer and the surfing lessons guy made me pay extra for paying him on PayPal because that's the only payment app I can use as a Canadian.

Just use a bank? Why all these regulation dodging strange alternatives. Most banks even do email/mobile/tap transfers these days.

My guess is that USAian banks charge stupid fees for any sort of transfer between different banks

You think Canada's approach is better?! TELL CARNEY. The government's push for Open Banking and increased fintechs is literally them wanting to bring in all these nonsense variant fintech apps... for reasons unknown.
