> Tikkie is similar but is p2p. I can create a link or a QR code and send it to people. They can then use the link or QR code and send me money.

Isn't that just PayPal/Venmo?

The difference is it just uses bank accounts, instantly. You don't have to wait 3 days to get the money, or remember to regularly withdraw money from the app (then wait 3 days for it to arrive).

Tikkie, iDeal, and IBAN transfers (within the country) are essentially instant. Additionally they are universally supported by all mainstream banks.

It's operated by the banks themselves, rather than a third party.
