Why SwiftBuddy

Name check before paying

See whose meter it is before any money moves.

Your token, three ways

In the app, by SMS and by email, so you can load it even without the app open.

Pay for family privately

Buddies can pay your saved meter under a nickname like "Mum's House" without ever seeing the meter number.

Never stuck without a token

If a DisCo is slow to send a token, SwiftBuddy keeps retrying and sends it as soon as it arrives, or refunds you.
