> @pazza83 I can't see how I could send money to email address in the mobile application. Phone numbers are just synced from phone contacts, but there's no option to send using an email address.

Payments can be sent via email within the app.

1. Click 'Send'
2. Choose currency and amount to be sent / choose currency used to fund
3. Click 'Add new receptient'
4. Click 'someone else'
5. Enter users email

> Besides that, you can't attach more than one email address to the Transferwise account. As they require full KYC, usually the well known address is used, likely one containing the first and/or last name, which is bad for privacy. OTOH, the phone number is just a set of digits.

This is correct. You can set your email to whatever you like. For example I could have mine as 1346keudht at protonmai.com 
This would give some additional security. 

You can make payments by phone number also. What put me off this was that anyone with your phone number could see your account details on Transferwise. This is true with email but setting up a new email, at least for me, takes mins compared to getting a new burner phone
