Ally Bank has begun offering person-to-person payments through CashEdge Inc.'s Popmoney service.
The Ally Financial Inc. unit announced Tuesday that customers could use the service to direct payments using a recipient's email address, mobile phone number or bank account number.
If the money is sent using an email address or mobile number, the recipient would have to provide a bank account number at popmoney.com to complete the transaction.
Other banks, including PNC Financial Services Group Inc., also offer CashEdge's Popmoney service.
