- P2P or bill payments in Canada can be made to any email address and received within 60 minutes for free.

- Splitting a bill or requesting payment in Netherlands is trivial, because the banks all allow you to generate a URL and send it to anyone for instant payment.

These are instant in the U.S., use the Zelle app.

Is a Zelle account required to receive a payment?

You just have to use a bank connected to Zelle and it’s done through the bank’s mobile app. There’s 400+ now apparently so it’s hard to be banked and not be connected somehow. The alphabetic list is on their site.
