Avi over at RBC Applied Innovation just sent me $1 through RBCMobex. I just registered, and 3 minutes later I am all set. The registration process is pretty slick, and once my account has been validated the money will be there.
The beauty of this system is that it can be used with any bank, and its simple to use. The problem with the banks Electronic Money Transfer system is that it is online banking only. RBC Mobex is mobile, and you can send to anyone at the moment you need to do it, rather than wait until you get back to your computer.
I have complained about Banks’ implementation of mobile before, but this one is a winner. This is the kind of thing that demonstrates what mobile implementations should be all about.

Is there something like this that’s a web-based solution and not just for mobile phones?
You have to have a bank account to use it Colin? What’s advantage over, say, PayPal?
