Has anyone had success using Dwolla? I love what they are doing and I tried to get behind them, but adoption rate is nil. If the sign up process was less of a pain I would feel better getting clients on board. It seems like they are just winning tiny battles like this just to stay in the press.



I have used it, and it works exactly as advertised. The only think I didn't like is that it put something on my facebook feed about paying somebody, which was gross. I can see why they are trying to get more exposure, but that was a bad move.

Other than that, it's just what it says on the tin.


Apparently they are big in rental markets. Apartment managers love the low fees on reasonably large transfers.


I used it to pay someone for some contracting work. It was nice to only have to pay $0.25 fee instead of 3%.


as a retailer, I incentivize customers to pay with it. the costs of promoting dwolla right now to increase the adoption rate among my customers is still lower than paypal or credit card fees.
