TextPayMe, founded in 2005, is an SMS payment service that enables users to send money via text messaging to anyone in the United States with an SMS-capable phone. While users may incur charges from their phone carriers for sending and receiving text messages, the service itself remains free during its beta phase. Payments are facilitated by sending a text to SMS@TextPayMe.com with a specific format, and each transaction requires confirmation through a user-created PIN, ensuring security. Users can fund transactions by linking their bank accounts or credit cards, with a limit of $500 on monthly transactions. In 2006, the TextPayMe team began working with Amazon, and by 2011, the service redirected to Amazon's mobile payment platform, suggesting an acquisition by the company.
