In about one year, Tilt has grown exponentially on campus at Virginia Tech and is only going to continue to grow with it's new Request and Pay feature. In August of 2015, there were 700 Tilt app users at Virginia Tech. Fast forward 366 days (it was a leap year, guys), there are now over 3,000 Tilt app users on our campus.

Now, for all of you new comers who might not know what Tilt is, I'll give you brief and quick overview: Tilt is the "go-to" app and site for collecting, requesting, and paying money to be a part of incredible and unique experiences wherever you may be. It's the easiest way for a group to collect money - and now, it's the easiest way for users to pay and request money from friends.

Users have been able to organize groups to collect money to order t-shirts, to raise money for a cause, to throw together great tailgates, to rent party buses, to bring big name artists to campus, to do quite honestly whatever you dream up. And with Tilt's newest Request and Pay feature, users are now able to request money from and directly pay money to friends.It's a feature that users and ambassadors have requested in the past to make Tilt a "one-stop shop", and Tilt has worked endlessly to bring it's users just what they've been asking for. Whether you need to pay a roommate for rent, pay a friend back for dinner, or remind a neighbor that they owe you a few bucks for last night's party, you can now do all of that (and more) with Tilt. Unlike Venmo, there is now "wallet" with Request and Pay. You will automatically be paid out right away, and funds will show up in your bank account within a day or two.

Tilt is now available for daily use and is the only money app you will ever need. Be sure to download the app and start making the most of what college is all about.
