Pony Express: GMail function for payment of invoices

Invoices by e-mail? According to the IT blog “ReCode” Internet giant Google plans this feature for GoogleMail. Already in the fourth quarter of this year the new payment function with the name “Pony Express” should be available. The blog refers to internal Google documents.


According to the documents, users must register with Pony Express with personal data and credit card data. Verification is carried out at a third party not mentioned.


In addition, of course, the customer numbers should be indicated for the services that offer an online payment. These could for example be telephone contracts. After correct identification, the corresponding invoices should then arrive via the Gmail app or on the website and be paid directly there. In addition, Pony Express will be able to share invoices with other Gmail users. The function is intended mainly for residential communities.


When exactly the payment feature is published via Googlemail is unknown. It is also unclear whether Google wants to offer the feature in the United States as well.
