### "User-friendly Solution for Quick Payments"

December 30, 2019

4.0

Being able to have a universal app (iOS and Android) that can be used reliably has been a nice. We haven't had any complaints with customer service or user experience.

Pros

Ease of use. It is easy to explain to someone how it works. It is also becoming more ubiquitous, which further removes friction for adoption.

Cons

lack of granular control with notifications. It would be nice to set additional layers of notifications based upon the amount of a transaction or a reminder if someone had received a request for payment but still not paid.

Reason for choosing Venmo

Cash, was the main option we use before to solve this problem. Venmo is nice to help keep track of these small transactions.

### "Love it"

October 1, 2019

5.0

Great, useful. I use it every other week to pay an employee for the past 6 years.

Pros

Makes it easy to send $ quickly and securely. You can find contacts through your social media or using a phone number.

Cons

Takes a while to deposit earnings into bank account, but usually only a couple of days if it's not the weekend.

### "Venmo for the everyday user"

November 17, 2021

4.0

I will continue to utilize Venmo for the foreseeable future.

Pros

I love that Venmo is functional on a mobile device. It processes payments quickly and accurately. You can be discrete about what good or service you are paying for.

Cons

I think Venmo should have a log in or two factor authentication to access the application.

### "Venmo ROCKS!"

January 20, 2023

5.0

Overall, I've had a great experience with Venmo as it pertains to ease of use, functionality, customer service, and accessibility.

Pros

What I like most about this software is its ease of use and accessibility. It's super easy to pick up and its many integrations make it easy to move money and use that money on the go.

Cons

There are no downsides to this app for me. I use this app in tandem with other apps such as this, and Venmo is definitely in my top 3.

### "Easy payment solution!"

May 7, 2021

5.0

I have benefitted from using Venmo in that some customers are uncomfortable with PayPal but will use Venmo. I don't know why because everything says Venmo by PayPal but whatever makes my customers and clients happy makes me happy.

Pros

I like that I can receive payment from clients and customers without being charged a service charge if I'm willing to wait a day or two to receive my money, other payment solutions nickel and dime you and your customers to death with service charges!

Cons

I wish that there was some sort of integration with PayPal since they are the same company. I get most of payments for my Tupperware business from PayPal but some people prefer Venmo. Since they are the same company, I should be able to easily transfer money between the two without the money passing through my checking account.

Alternatives considered

[PayPal](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/)[Square Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/170278/Square-Payments-Processing/)

Reason for choosing Venmo

I use both Venmo and PayPal for everything. I chose Venmo over Square because of the cost of Square and the necessity of buying equipment that I don't really need.

### "Easy to Use - A Must Have"

June 21, 2021

5.0

People are always looking for THEIR method of payment and this is a must have for any business.

Pros

Most people are using this over other payment platforms. The ease of use - finding users, payments, transfers, etc. make this a must have electronic payment method.

Cons

For those technologically challenged there is a bit of a learning curve, but that's the case with any software.

### "Convenient for all users"

July 20, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love how easy it is to use this software. It is a convenient way to send and receive​ funds with individuals. It is easy to find friends and is a safe, secure and easy way to transfer funds to your accounts.

Cons

When using this software, sometimes it randomly glitches and the program closes.

### "Great for Small Quick Money Transfers"

September 8, 2020

5.0

In my professional and personal life venmo has certainly changed the name of the game in terms of how to quickly pay someone back.

Pros

This software is really easy to add "regular" people to pay them for their services. You can add them as "friends" and then you can repeat payments to them with ease, knowing it is going to the correct account. The customer service is also very good and responsive if for some reason the money is sent to the wrong user. They are able to recover it in a few days.

Cons

This is not exactly a professional-looking software. Many people leave comments about payments and other messages. You can alter your privacy settings to make it look more professional. Also if you are paying a contractor for their work Venmo limits the amount you can pay people during any given day. If you are paying someone for a larger project, then you should consider the maximum transfer amount.

### "Finding Nemo but I Found Venmo"

September 26, 2020

5.0

I wish Venmo had an actual physical location/ bank. I would do all of my financial services there.

Pros

This products offers a safe, protective lane for money to be transferred, received, paid and stored, The security and the easy access is amazing and unlike any other competitor.

Cons

There are no cons and there is northing negative I can actually say about this financial services.

### "Venmo! Just Venmo it!"

May 7, 2021

5.0

Overall I highly recommend venmo, any minor gripes I mentioned above are just that (Minor Gripes). I think Venmo can be great for anyone whether you get payments or are paying people it can be very fast and easy to use.

Pros

Very easy to use, very nice to look at, platforms supported for several devices and it just works! What more do you need for a service like this?

Cons

Some issues linking multiple bank accounts to the app but after a few attempts this issue was gone. Maybe another such issue I can think of is how once a payment is gone through it's just sent. Sometimes accidents happen and it would be nice if they had designed a way to allow payments to be sent back if it was sent accidentally maybe within a set time frame.

### "Great Software with Great functionality"

December 28, 2018

5.0

Pros

All my friends use it...so its useful. The biggest value in this software is in the number of users it has, not its actual functionality.

Cons

It tries to marry payments with social media. Why would I want anything financial public in any way? Yes you can set it all to private, but it seems like putting social functions in a payment app is a poor choice. There are also better apps to send money, but they are not as powerful as Venmo because they do not have the same size user base.

### "The best mobile payment service"

September 17, 2019

5.0

We are quickly solving multiple small payments around the office that have been made between co-workers to avoid confusion over debts and pending payments.

Pros

What I like the most about this software is how easy it is to use its mobile application. Within seconds, one can make payments to co-workers and other companies directly from your phone. Also, withdrawing money from the application into a debit card can be done almost instantly.

Cons

The only thing I do not like about this software is that it does not accept international credit cards for use, at least not all of them.

### "Easy To Use In Many Situations"

October 19, 2021

5.0

Pros

I like Venmo because most people have it and don't mind using it to receive payments or even to pay invoices. It's easy to transfer the money directly into my bank account, which is important to me.

Cons

I don't like that you have to include a note about why you're sending money. I write web content for a living and sometimes I write articles of a sensitive nature. Clients don't always want that noted in their payment

[PayPal](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/)

It's easier to use, faster to use, and there's less back and forth about making sure you have the correct Paypal email etc.

### "Venmo gets us paid while still at a job site "

June 4, 2021

5.0

We love Venmo. The fact that it's on our cell phone and we can make sure we're paid when we're finished, not when the customer feels like sending a check is a huge win for us and frees us up by not having to make collections calls.

Pros

The single best thing about the software is being able to get paid when we finish... No sending out invoices and waiting 90 days. We tell our guys to not leave until they are paid. It's game changing for us.

Cons

We don't see any downside. The only thing I would like to see added is the ability to send an invoice from the software. To be honest that might be an option and I just don't know about it.

### "Venmo"

May 15, 2019

5.0

Pros

This app is very similar to PayPal. I like the ability to easily send and receive money from friends and family. It is very straight forward and easy to use. The ability to have a card makes it easy to have access to the funds you have available in the app as well.

Cons

The one thing I like the least about this application is how it shares your transactions by default. I turned that feature off but I'm not sure if it really does make my transactions private after turning that off.

### "The Best App For Splitting Bills and Paying Friends and Family"

April 18, 2020

5.0

Overall, Venmo is the best payment app I've ever used and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a simple way to pay and request money from people.

Pros

The thing I like most about Venmo is that it doesn't try to be anything other than a simple, easy-to-use app to pay and request money from friends and family.

Cons

What I like least about the app is that it doesn't seem to recognize the people that I pay and request money from most frequently, leading to me having to search for my close friends, which is annoying.

### "Quick Payments"

October 12, 2021

5.0

Venmo makes payment quick and easy for both the customer and the business. It allows for quick billing without the hassle of depositing checks. Perfect for a small business with limited time in the day.

Pros

Venmo makes accepting payments quick and easy. For small jobs and deposits, venmo allows customers to quickly make a payment on the spot without the need to write a check or make a bank run.

Cons

The delay of funds being sent to the time they are transferred to the bank is 1 to 3 days, which usually is not an issue. You can also opt for a 1% fee for instant transfer
