However there have been some bugs and issues the most prominent one being that if a user sends money through Paypal the receiver is able to see the sender’s address which posses a potential security threat to the sender.

In the next update Twitter acknowledged the issue in a tweet and had resolved it.

Twitter also announced that an external payment processor is being used for transactions and it is not taking any cuts from the tips. Adding onto that Twitter also said there is a lot more to come and the next step will be making this feature available to users having different default languages other than English.
