Peer-to-peer (P2P) payments are increasing significantly in the US, driven by tremendous growth from Venmo and Zelle.
eMarketer’s latest estimates show that P2P mobile transactions will total $309.95 billion this year, growing 27.9% to hit $396.48 billion in 2020.
The number of P2P payment users will continue to grow as well: They estimate that there will be 69.2 million users in the US this year, rising to 73.8 million by 2020.
