Abstract

Systems and methods for providing peer-to-peer and group financial management are provided herein. An example system includes a payment processor that executes software instructions for creating and managing electronic payment accounts and an accounts database to store account data from the payment processor. The payment processor may be configured to receive a payment request from a payer, the payment request including information to identify a payee and a payment amount. The payment processor may be further configured to determine if the accounts database includes an account associated with the payee, and based on a determination that the accounts database includes an account associated with the payee, send an electronic message to the payee that notifies the payee of the payment request. The payment processor may also be configured to access the accounts database to determine if the payee is identified as having a trusted relationship with the payer, and based on a determination that the payee is identified in the accounts database as having a trusted relationship with the payer, access the accounts database to transfer the payment amount from an account associated with the payer to the account associated with the payee without first receiving authorization for the transfer from the payee.
