What is RCUpay?
RCUpay is a person-to-person (P2P) payment system that allows you to quickly and easily send money directly to others. Send birthday money to a family member, pay rent, pay the dog walker, or reimburse a friend for lunch—it’s up to you!
Important: RCUpay is not a bill pay or payroll service.
