### "My favorite free payment platform"

July 24, 2019

5.0

Pros

Just a few clicks to send and request money. I also enjoy the notes feature, which can be helpful for remembering why money was sent

Cons

It's hard to find your contacts if you dont sync Venmo to your address book, Gmail, or Facebook.

### "Convenient Payment Method"

August 9, 2019

5.0

Venmo is a secure way to pay others or receive payment without transferring card information. There is no fee when transferring to your bank account. Venmo is one tool I use often with others.

Pros

Venmo is a great way to connect with others and transfer payments securely and safely from your phone or computer. I like that Venmo allows you to tell the others what you are paying for. This helps keep transactions more relevant. You can share your phone number, QR code or username to be found.

Cons

I am not a huge fan of transactions being public such as seeing what others are paying for but you have the option to mark yours private as well which I use often.

### "I Love VENMO!"

November 19, 2021

5.0

I use Venmo just about everyday for the past 2 years and I haven't had one issue with the app.

Pros

Venmo is a great app to send cash to friends and family, you can use it as a debit card for in store or online purchases. When transferring cash balance to your bank account, you can transfer instantly for a small fee, or transfer it for free and the money will be in your account in 1-3 business days.

Cons

I wish the app didn't show other peoples transaction history.

### "Making Payments Easy"

December 3, 2019

5.0

So easy to split a check! Often times I'd get stuck paying more because I had more cash , etc. and Venmo makes it really easy to split things fairly! Venmo is just the best - has simplified my life in more ways than I can thank them for!

Pros

Very easy to navigate and the user face is attractive. App is a great Privacy setting allow for payments from people in private. Excellent customer service (very patient and understanding)! Money is always transferred to my bank super fast - I've never had to wait more than two days. I use it at work when we collect money for joint gifts, etc. and it is so easy! Compared to cash app, google pay and paypal i find it much easier to use!

Cons

I personally have had no cons with the app. As perviously noted if you do run into issues it is likely your bank account or you've made the unfortunate mistake of sending money to someone you don't know who was a scammer! Always use the app to send money to people you know and trust.

### "This product is absolutely neccesary!"

August 2, 2022

It allows me to offer my clients options and saves me money in processing fees (usually)

Pros

I love that it gives my clients options of payment. It is easy to use and mostly trusted by customers

Cons

I am sometimes charged fees which I think is unfair

Cons

This not back so they won't offer money protection that banks offer. Says u been scam venmo is not really going to refund you the money you lost

### "Venmo"

June 24, 2022

5.0

Very positive and easy to use

Pros

Very easy to setup as a buyer and a seller. If you are a small seller you can easily have one account for both purposes

Cons

I wish the company had participated to fight for the rights of its users by arguing against the new reporting requirements instituted by the federal government.

### "Venmo is our Go-To"

November 9, 2021

5.0

It has been a pleasure. No real big issues. I can easily send a paycheck or take a payment from customers so yeah no complaints here.

Pros

Im very impressed with the ease of use and customers are very aware of venmo and are never weary to use it to send payments or down-payments

Cons

The customer service could be way better. They just now implemented a phone number to call so I'm happy about that

### "Venmo Review"

May 7, 2019

4.0

Pros

I use this program weekly as my friends and I are constantly buying things for one another and then paying each other back. The program is very simple to use and it is easy to both request and send money to other individuals. It is also easy to move money to your bank account once you have an acquired balance.

Cons

I know that this program suffered with security at one point due to the capabilities of Siri. From what I know, it has since been fixed but quite a few people still don't trust it. I believe that using Zelle or Popmoney would be a safer choice since they are connected directly to one's back account, however those programs are not as easily accessed and not everyone uses them. Another con of this product is that I know some people have problems where their card won't save, so they have to add it each time. Some cards are also not yet accepted with this program, so it forces customers to use Zelle or Popmoney to share money with others.

### "Venmo is our go to payment software app"

January 20, 2022

5.0

Overall, we love venmo and will continue to use it. I feel that it is safe and functional.

Pros

We love venmo! We use it to make payments to our contractors and we also allow our customers to pay us using venmo. We are able to get payments in a timely manner allowing this as a payment option. I can let money stay in the venmo account to make future transactions with or I can move money in the venmo account to my bank with a click of a button. I like that I can use this app with my phone or computer as well.

Cons

I have not found any cons using this program.

5.0

I use Venmo on a weekly basis. Everything from paying friends for food to handling payments for my small businesses. It's easy and safe.

Pros

Venmo is easy to set up and even easier to use. Sending money is a simple and transferring your cash to your bank account is fast and easy.

Cons

There's not much I would change. I haven't had any issues, at all. I am really satisfied with venmo.

### "Great secure service for money transfers P2P"

March 24, 2020

5.0

Venmo is an exceptional money transfer software app. Easily wire money to your friends for anything, food, groceries, drinks, even freelance work. They are a large organization backed by Paypal, and your data is secure. However, the one grip I have about it, is that your financial activity is posted like a social network to your friends. Thankfully, venmo has fixed this and you can hide the money you send to people. Overall, great product.

Pros

The ease of Sending to friends Secure banking info backed by Paypal Intuitive Graphic Design Nice looking interface

Cons

Posting your finances to your friends is weird Making a social network out of financing is strange A lot of social networking features that are outdated

### "Should you use Venom as a business"

September 20, 2021

5.0

Venmo is a great option as most people are now using it. It is still hard to find our business even with the exact handle and there is no way to retract a payment if sent to wrong person. That's a little nerve racking if a client gets our @name wrong. It's a great payment app for personal use, but not the best for a business

Pros

Simple, quick way to get clients to pay you on the spot for smaller transactions. Most people use the app, so it makes it easy to get paid

Cons

There is a service fee percentage taken out of your transaction. However this fee is less then paypal, quickbooks, square and a credit card processing. Zelle is still free, so we prefer our clients us that online phone app to pay us.

Reason for choosing Venmo

We use it in conjunction with all the above. We don't use it often due to the fee charged for any transaction.

### "Venmo is great for conveniently sending and receiving money!"

July 18, 2019

5.0

It makes it really easy to pay or request money from others at work for things like work supplies.

Pros

I love Venmo because it’s incredibly easy to set up and use. It also works well in sending and receiving money—I’ve never had an issue completing a request. It is great because it lets you choose if you want to deposit cash instantly or send it to your bank account. The instant option is almost literally instant and charges a minimal fee.

Cons

The only issue I’ve seen when using Venmo is that it doesn’t work for one type of account at a certain institution. However, that is the only issue I’ve ever encountered and it’s possible it’s an issue with the financial institution itself.

### "My Take on Venmo"

October 13, 2023

5.0

My overall experience with Venmo is simple and straightforward to use and send cash out.

Pros

What I like about Venmo as it's purpose of the app is to send money out and it's nice to also transfer your Venmo balance to pay like on Amazon and transfer to your designated bank.

Cons

The one thing I had in mind for a con on Venmo is that the fact you have to pay a fee for the transferring in minutes instead of days which seems like it's a little bit demanding if you want it like instantly.

### "Number one option for money transactions"

5.0

We exchange money between colleagues at work in a simple and fast way.

Pros

With monetary transactions are at the fingertips of anyone with a bank account and a smartphone, this app is a game changer.

Cons

In my opinion, the lack of international reach limits the potential of this tool quite a bit.
