PayPal released a new PayPal Money Habits Study that sheds new light on people’s attitudes and behaviors around money. In a survey of 4,000 consumers in the U.S., Canada, Germany and Australia, the study found that one third of adults in the U.S. have ruined a relationship over IOUs and are owed on average $450. A driving reason is discomfort around financial conversations; more than 50 percent of Americans find it awkward to ask their friends or family to pay them back.
The survey also found digital wallets continue to gain popularity with one third of respondents preferring a digital wallet to a real one. Most people dislike dealing with checks (74 percent), and while cash is still king, mobile payments are on the rise with peer-to-peer (P2P) payments increasingly popular for IOUs.
“As we see money going digital and mobile, people need more flexible ways to manage their money. It’s simple – we all want no-fuss ways to pay and get paid back, and avoid awkward IOU conversations,” said Matt Gromada, Director of Consumer Product Marketing at PayPal. “PayPal pioneered sending money digitally 16 years ago, and we are continuing to lead the way with our P2P offerings.”
