- Send 5 to person@email.com

# That sounds cool. But is it secure?
Yes. It is. Every transaction you make is secured through a PIN. So even if, you loose your phone, no-one would be able to carry out transactions from your mobile. It’s just like loosing an ATM card. If the thief doesn’t know your PIN, there is nothing he can do
