Where to Get a PayID

Following up on my first PayID post with actionable next steps

PayID is supported in an array of apps, with more to come.

“Just like the creation and widespread adoption of the internet and mobile phones, PayID drives payments forward, simplifying global payments for all and bringing us one step closer to a world where money moves as easily as information.” — Open Payments Coalition

Each one of these companies have pledged to offer PayID to their customers.
