### "Venmo: Half of your clients use it!(?)"

August 4, 2020

5.0

Love it! Easy to use. Sometimes it's hard if you're the only one in your area using Vemmo, but if your clients use it, definitely a super tool!

Pros

Honestly super easy to use! As long as the person knows their username it's easy to find and request payment or schedule refunds and what not.

Cons

As easy as it is to use, I would say that only youth to people in their 30's tend to use Venmo. So it's really great for about half of society! You'll probably have to pair this with Paypal if you want to be able to reach your entire clientele.

### "Venmo ...powered by paypal"

January 5, 2022

5.0

I like venmo other than the delays and guesstimate times that are frequently late it's an amazing app that revolutionized the way I navigate this space

Pros

I liked the response time from customer service if there's an issue. I also like how easy it is to toggle back and forth between business and regular accounts

Cons

That you had to wait such a lengthy time for deposits, that your limited with the amount of linked accounts and the frequency with which you can change them.

### "Venmo Review"

March 16, 2020

5.0

I have really good experience with it. Because it is easy to send money to someone. You just have to take his/her venmo id that's it.

Pros

All the feature are goods. Also it is very secure way to send money to other people because it is now own by paypal.

Cons

I least like about is, it takes 2-3 days to transfer money from venmo account. I know we can do instant transfer with some addition fee.

February 3, 2024

Pros

The Thing I like most about Venmo is that how it makes it easy to transfer money at such a speed with a really nice user-friendly interface

Cons

Even though venmo has so many benefits, it comes with it's own disadvantages. One of which is that it doesn't support Business transactions and also doesn't have any protection for both buyers and sellers

### "So convenient"

December 7, 2021

5.0

The biggest benefit is convenience and ease of deposits into my bank account by simply pressing a button. It’s seamless.

Pros

I love the ease of use for payment for goods and reimbursement from friends and family. It makes sharing expenses so easy and also convenient for using as a business payment method. Simple and quick payment.

Cons

I don’t love the lack of privacy. I opted into making my transactions private but I often see what friends pay other friends for in my feed and think it’s not necessary.

### "Makes transferring Money easy"

December 20, 2021

4.0

Overall would advise consumers to use this product for fast cash back.

Pros

Cash back for consumers is fast and somewhat easy!

Cons

Consumers have a hard time finding payments to cash out. It's a bit expensive to cash out and consumers get upset with not receiving their full payment. Not wanting to wait.

### "Best way to send money to friends "

January 23, 2020

5.0

My overall experience is positive because it makes life easier. It makes going out with friends and splitting the check not as hard, because using Venmo right away afterwards is so easy.

Pros

I like how I can send money that I owe to a friend with just about 3 buttons. I also like the ability to make payments or requests private, so that others do not see your transactions.

Cons

My least favorite thing about this software is how long it takes for the money to transfer into my bank account. I think I would use it more frequently if I could get my money on the same day I request it or get paid.

### "My Review For Venmo!"

September 20, 2023

3.0

Pros

What I like about Venmo is that its easy and simple transfer from my bank account. Also when cashing out its super quick and easy. I also like the fact Customer Service is available through Chat. I have found it more to be user friendly than other similar products. The people working customer service are nice and sweet and always find a way to fix any problem.Venmo is super easy to use when sending money to a friend or family member because there are no fees in sending money to someone or receiving.

Cons

I wish it were easier to link multiple accounts to one banks so you income can be tracked. And also. I bank originally bank through the B9 App and I wish this App would be more like B9 App.I would be nice to be able to link more than two bank accounts.

### "Venmo is a straight forward, easy way to send money to friends."

June 3, 2021

5.0

Overall, Venmo is a good app. It achieves its main purpose of being a quick and easy money transfer app. Though, there are issues I hope get fixed in the future.

Pros

Most of time, I'm using Venmo outside of my business for personal payments. I love how straight forward and quick this app is when I send money to people. I have also used Venmo before to make online purchases. I am also glad that Venmo decided to include a "payment for purchase" feature to their app, which includes payment protection. Other money transfer apps such as Zelle and Cash App, do not include such a feature, making it easy for scammers to take advantage of people.

Cons

Venmo is a great app, but there is one issue I have with it. Though this has not happened to me, it has happened to many of my friends. Venmo tends to freeze accounts and provides no explanation as to why they froze the account.

### "Reccomend 😊"

December 13, 2019

4.0

I really like venmo and have already recommended it to others! It is so simple to use. I love the fact that it is not only an app but you can a free card to use as well. They do charge you to automatically send the money to your bank account , but they only charge 1% which I personally think is extremely fair.

Pros

I love how simply venmo is to use. Not only is it an easy app to send and receive money to/from friends and family but they will also provide you with a card for free. You also automatically get cash back on purchases made at certain places.

Cons

So far I have not come across much that I dont like about venmo! I do however wish they did a referral program like most similar apps do.

### "Venmo mobile payments is a real game changer"

October 29, 2021

5.0

Overall, Venmo saves me time and is a nimble financial tool that I leverage in my business. For example being able to have funds available quickly gives me the ability to scale quickly. Because it’s easy and convenient to use and now I cant envision doing business in any other way.

Pros

The speed of transactions and the very user friendly interface is great. The integration with my design client transactions is seamless with my personal work flow.

Cons

The only issue with speed of transactions I have encountered is when using some smaller banks that occasionally don't support the great fast instant transfer feature.

### "My favorite online payment application "

September 13, 2021

5.0

Pros

Ice used many online payment applications and this one is my favorite. It is very easy to sign up. It is easy to make payments and to receive payments. It is easy to connect to new people for payments too. I've never had any issues with payments being completed on this platform.

Cons

Defaults to public sharing of payments, but it is easy to permanently change the default to private sharing with a single setting in your profile.

Ease of use is the best part, but also seeing transaction history is handy.

### "Simple software for day to day transactions"

April 20, 2021

5.0

Overall, I have been really impressed with Venmo. I have never had an issue with it. I have heard of people having trouble with fraud but I have never experienced that. I use Venmo on a weekly or daily basis and I am always so grateful for the simplicity of the transaction and the ease of use.

Pros

I love that this product is so user friendly! I have students that are 10 and students that are in their 60s and they are all able to use Venmo to pay me for lessons and other business expenses. It is free and funds are usually in my bank account within one or two business days. I really appreciate the fact that there are multiple ways to find someone whether it is by username, phone number or QR code. I use Venmo at my other job as well when accepting payments for cars and customers really appreciate the simplicity of Venmo. Lastly, I also like that I can make payments private so that the online community of Venmo doesn't see them in case people aren't comfortable having their payments public.

Cons

I wish that Venmo didn't have the default of paying them 1% to have my funds delivered immediately. I have nearly allowed that several times even though I didn't want to. I understand that it is a sales tactic and a way to make money, it just seems a little desperate to me.

Reason for choosing Venmo

It is free and easy to use.

### "Venmo Review"

My overall experience with Venmo has been that it is easy to use and easy to install.

What I like most about Venmo is that everyone has the ability to use venmo and it is extremely easy to use.

Cons

### "Simple Review of Powerpoint"

April 30, 2021

4.0

My overall experiences with Venmo have been positive. I think the Venmo software is extremely user friendly and the speed of the transactions is a definite plus. The ability to complete a transfer in a few minutes is ver attractive for consumers such as myself. There are other options to send money and I will continue to use and recommend Venmo for ease of use and I think it’s a great alternative to any other ways to send money quickly and safely.

Pros

Venmo’s greatest strengths are convenience, ease of use, user friendly and speed of transactions. I started using Venmo over a year ago. I needed to send money to a family member quickly and avoid any outrageous fees charge by other organizations. I sent the money and received the call in under two minutes that they received it. Since the first initial use I’ve used it multiple time because it is quick, reliable and easy to use.

Cons

The one feature I dislike about Venmo is that other users can see who, why and the amount you send to the receiver. Thankfully, it gives the option to enable privacy which I did and felt more secure in completing the transaction. This feature only allows the sender and receiver to see any information.

### "Best way to transfer money"

August 26, 2019

5.0

We have loved using Venmo for our business. It has made sending and receiving payments so much easier. It's like a digital check. It has made keeping track of payments so much easier as well, since every transaction has a comment associated with it.

Pros

The ease of setup is one of the best features. Just download the app and connect your bank account. The ability to send and receive money from anyone else in the app regardless of which bank they are using is also fantastic. I also appreciate that they create monthly statements. While I don't use these most of the time, they have been very helpful when doing taxes and needing to double check which category a particular charge should be filed under.

Cons

The one main feature that is missing is an auto-cash-out option. Competitors such as Square Cash have this and it's really nice. Having to remember to go into the app and transfer money to my bank adds and extra step that sometimes gets forgotten.

### "Multi use service"

October 21, 2022

5.0

Pros

Venmo gives customers the freedom to send and receive money for a service instantaneously or within a couple of business days in order to not be charged a fee. It is easy to use and provides a lot of features.

Cons

Venmo is not fool proof from scam artists out there and have heard stories of people losing money, however, Venmo has been able to help resolve the issues with their legal team to my knowledge.
