The process is move X to Y, but the need to get something to Y actually came first, like Y is an invoice, or an account that is overdrawn, or whatever. Y created the “problem” initially, and then moving from X is the “solution”.
It’s funny, in all your examples, the need to pay comes first, then your selection of the source.
Like the cashier extends his hand, so the destination is clear, then you think about the source. The credit card machine is clear, then you choose which of your cards to use. The venmo scanner is there, then you choose how to fulfill that.
