If it's not business income to you, it is not a deductible expense to your friends and/or family.  There is no consequence to using these forms of electronic payments for normal non-business transactions.  If you were to receive a tax form from these transactions that are non-business you would be able to show them on your tax return and also show a corresponding negative amount to remove them from being taxed.  However, I do not think you will need to worry about this.
