In Australia you can send money via phone number or email (called payid) but it's not sent in an email or SMS, it's just that your number/email address is used as a unique identifier linked to your bank account. When someone pays you via either of those, the money gets directed into that account instantly.
And yes, being paid directly into your bank account is standard here and I would say really the only option for most jobs. I'm 35 and have never had a job that doesn't pay you direct to your account.
