PayPal Announces Launch of PayPal.Me Peer-to-peer Payments Similar to Square Cash or Bitcoin Wallets

Receiving money from a friend, client or anyone else on PayPal just got a little bit easier. Today, the company announced the launch of PayPal.Me, a personal, vanity PayPal link that makes it easy to remind people to send you money.

Not much of a difference on how it worked before except that you can send a request and now have a vanity link instead of the normal email.

Also, is this really peer-to-peer? I take it it still goes to a centralised server where everything gets processed.
