Systems and methods for use in transferring funds between payment accounts
Systems and methods are provided for facilitating fund transfers between accounts. One example method includes capturing a computer-readable indicia representative of a destination account identifier specific to a destination account of a first party and a name of the first party, and in response to the captured indicia, displaying the name of the first party, at a mobile device of the user, as a confirmation that the first party is associated with the destination account. The method also includes identifying a payment amount for a fund transfer from a source account issued by a financial institution to the destination account, based on a user input at the mobile device, and compiling and transmitting a transfer request for the fund transfer to a payment network, where the transfer request includes the destination account identifier, a source account identifier for the source account, and the identified payment amount.
