      I don’t understand the core concept of “have or add money in the app”?

      Do you mean like adding money to some sort of pre-paid card in Apple Pay or Google Wallet? 'Cuz I can’t use either of those (GrapheneOS), and even if I could I’m pretty happy just using physical credit cards or cash anyways. Or are you talking about something else?

        All these apps are basically a third party “digital wallet”, like PayPal. The market exists because US bank suck at quickly transferring money to eachother, and occasionally you want to give a friend money without having cash or waiting 3 business days.
