What is it? 💸


It's the fastest and easiest way to send and receive money in the U.S.—no waiting days, no need for a traditional bank account, and no new card required.

How does it work? 👀

  • You can send and receive payments from anyone who has a U.S. Visa or Mastercard debit card.

  • Choose to send money from your Común account balance or by linking debit cards from other banks.

  • To send, share your payment link or look up your contact in the contacts list, by username or scan their QR.

  • To receive, share your payment link or your QR code.

    • Your friend is not on Común yet? No problem! With your link, they can join in minutes and get the money straight to their card.

That’s it! Fast, simple, and instant 🚀.

👀 Important: If you don't see the Pay option on your app, update Común to the latest version in your app store, and you'll be ready to start using Pay.
