PayPal?s Upcoming iPhone App To Get More Charitable And Check-Friendly

With parent company eBay's continued focus on mobile, PayPal has been adding a number of compelling innovations and features to its iPhone and Android apps. Most recently, the company added Bump technology to both of its free apps, which allows you to transfer money and initiate transactions by simply by tapping smartphones together. In the next versions of the app, PayPal has a few nifty features in store for users.

PayPal's President Scott Thompson tells me that an upcoming version of the company's iPhone app will include the ability to make a donation to a charitable organization directly from the app. PayPal has partnered with 20,000 various charities, including Autism Speaks and Save The Children, to allow users to make a donation at any time on the go directly from their PayPal account.
