◦Obopay is a unique application in the App Store that allows parents to set up controlled accounts for their children and see at a glance where the kids are spending the money, schedule recurring "allowance" payments into the account and send emergency money to family members. It also prevents the danger of children incurring overdraft penalties or interest charges or potentially damaging their parents' credit.
◦Teens receive a prepaid card with their name embossed on the card and immediately can access the received money at any ATM or merchant location which accepts cards.
•Splitting the bill: One no longer needs to worry about friends not having exact cash at dinner when splitting the bill, because they can pay you back on the spot with Obopay.
•Small and medium-sized merchants: Small and medium-sized merchants such as gardeners, babysitters, contractors and online merchants now can be paid instantly through a secure environment creating efficiencies and greater convenience.
•Obopay leverages Apple's iPhone OS platform and alerting capabilities by giving users comfort that their payment was successfully sent and received.
•Obopay offers a companion MasterCard prepaid card, thus enabling iPhone users to have up-to-the minute awareness of their available balance and recent transactions.
•It's free to download Obopay to your mobile phone, sign up for the service, access your account information as well as receive money. Sending money costs as little as $0.25 per transaction.
