On a recent trip back to the US, I was introduced to these Paypal-like "Cash Apps" that are all the rage for paying people back, splitting bills, etc.  I made this list to document them for my own purposes.

Cash App
- Well this one has a pretty straight-forward name!
- Owned by Square

Venmo
- Owned by Paypal

Zelle
- Owned by Early Warning Services, which is a partnership of several major US banks.
