Rhombus makes SMS mobile payments platform available in the US

Monday 15 June 2015 10:00 CET | News

Payments startup Rhombus has launched a platform in the US that enables consumers to send payments and donations to businesses on any mobile device.

This is done by texting the amount owed and a description of what they want to buy to a dedicated Rhombus number. They will receive a payment confirmation by text immediately after. They will also receive an electronic receipt by email for every payment they make. There is a 160-character limit for each individual payment consumers send using Rhombus; they can send a minimum payment of USD 5 and a maximum payment of USD 15,000.

Rhombus is working on adding support for other countries “soon” and has partnered with payments startup Stripe for storing a user’s payment information.
