Peer - to - peer payment start - up Mezu has launched an app that enables users to send and receive money without having to access personal data . The app generates a one - time , four - digit code that the sender gives to the receiver to obtain the payment . In speaking with VentureBeat, Brisker said he believes that the time is ripe for Mezu to enter the market, especially following consumer blowback from the Cambridge Analytica-Facebook scandal. Mezu accounts can be linked to a bank account , debit or credit card . Designed for use by volunteers , the Ohio - based company recently raised $ 10 million in funding and is looking to make donating easier too .
