Overall it’s an easy to use app for sending small payments.

Pros

It’s easy to send money when I need to pay someone quickly for services.

### "Venmo is your next payment method!"

September 20, 2024

4.0

Venmo has been an amazing piece of software to use in my personal opinion. It is fast and reliable. Many people have it so it is easy for people to pay with Venmo if you don't take card.

Pros

Venmo is a good service when it comes to transferring money. I find it really easy to just tell someone that you take Venmo and they sacn you QR code and just pay you. Really easy, seamless, and quick.

Cons

If you switch your QR code to a business code, they will charge you a percentage everytime someone makes a purchase using your code.

### "Venmo Review"

November 7, 2024

4.0

Overall experience has been pleasant. Easy to manage funds and payments.

Pros

Easy to use money management system. Able to send and receive money.

Cons

I don't like how your payments can be made public, each time to ensure your own privacy you have to change the setting from public to private.

### "Must use app for anyone with a smartphone "

September 22, 2024

### "Just one thing That I need...."

August 13, 2024

4.0

It is very convenient and can be used on any website. The platform is simple and provides easy access for clients and friends. Additionally, there are no fees for transfers that take 1-3 days. However, my experience is not 100% satisfactory due to the issue with the Setmore website settings. If there were a way to resolve this, my satisfaction would be complete.

Pros

It is very convenient and can be used on any website. The platform is simple and provides easy access for clients and friends. Additionally, there are no fees for transfers that take 1-3 days.

Cons

One drawback I've encountered is that while I use Venmo on various websites for class bookings and payments, Venmo itself cannot process payments directly. I have to connect it to PayPal, which complicates the setup. Additionally, I would prefer to display only Venmo as a payment option on the Setmore website, but this isn't allowed due to Venmo being linked to PayPal.

### "Must Have !!"

October 26, 2024

5.0

I use it to send and receive money and purchase things in apps, I have never had any complaints! The public comments are a fun addition too.

Pros

I enjoy using it through other apps when purchasing food or other things through my phone. It is a simple verification, a food delivery app simply opens the Venmo app and you're set to pay without entering your card information.

Cons

Like all money transfers, the small fee is slightly bothersome, but its rather insignificant for smaller transfers.

### "Great for sending and receiving money"

October 2, 2024

5.0

Venmo is great for personal and business uses. I use this with my customers when i have no POS options available. The customer scans my QR and is able to pay for goods right away.

Pros

It is super easy to connect with a bank account and send and receive money. It is also easy and quick when it comes to transferring money feom venmo to the bank account. It is great for paying friends back after a day out. It is also great for accepting payments from customers when POS is not available.

Cons

I don't have any dislikes for any aspects of venmo.

### "Quickly Sends Money Anywhere for a small fee "

September 3, 2024

5.0

Venmo sends money from my bank accounts and links to cashapp and paypal easily. Other than the fact they charge to send money within minutes its well worth the small fee.

Pros

I like using Venmo to send money to my employees because it gives me monthly statements and sends it within minutes.

Cons

I dont like the fact you have to pay to get your money sent within minutes.

### "Friends and Family Payment"

September 30, 2024

3.0

My overall experience with Venmo has been decent. It is good at some things and bad at others. Venmo does not feel as secure as other payment sites. Their buyer protection is difficult to use. Customer service is hard to get ahold of if you ever have any trouble. They like to send you a copy-and-paste reply each time you contact them.

Pros

Venmo is another decent payment app. It is more focused on sending payments between friends and family. You can set up direct deposit so if you don't trust banks, you can use Venmo to get paid for your job. I like that you can also apply for a Venmo debit card so you can easily pay for items at stores.

Cons

Venmo is owned by PayPal. One con is they don't allow you to send money from Venmo to someone's Paypal. If you have a friend that only uses PayPal, you are not able to send money to that friend, using your Venmo balance. Venmo also allows you to buy and sell cryptocurrency, but when you go to sell any, it takes close to a week to verify the transaction. Other sites do this instantly, no matter how much you are selling.

### "Abv Avg Bankin"

September 19, 2024

4.0

Nothing too out of the ordinary just to go to app whenever in need of a mobile bank that can store your money.

Pros

Not too much to add to this one.Just like all the other mobile banking apps at offers your mobile bank transfers at cost if you want it immediately as well.As what I could tell being accepted between all of my banks. Plan to use it more.

Cons

No issues really other than the fact that you or I guess I have had troubles connecting with my paypal which is odd because its integrated to do it.

### "Try it out"

September 17, 2024

5.0

My overall experience with venmo is great!

Pros

How easy it is to send money to friends and family and how fast it goes through. So if friends or family really need some cash for maybe gas or let's say you need money, venmo is the quickest way to send and receive.

Cons

I recently did try to log back into my account because I forgot to change my phone number,

### "Fast Funds"

September 13, 2024

5.0

I appreciate having Venmo as an option for my clients to pay with. It allows me to be paid quickly and I like that i have the option of recieving funds imediatly (for a fee) or in a couple days. More often than not it's available next day.

Pros

This is a very accesable platform that many of my clients use. It's efficient and easy to use.

Cons

I would prefer if the default wasn't to make transactions public. I'm not sure why that's a feature at all.

### "Not my favorite app"

October 17, 2024

2.0

I only used it to send money to my daughter’s dance team coach. I never used it for anything else really other than a few one off sends to other people who had Venmo.

Pros

I really only liked that I could find my friends on the app so it was easier to send and receive money.

Cons

I was hacked on the app so it’s not my favorite app. I eventually closed my account because I was constantly having someone trying to use my account some how.

### "Venmo is easy enough for anyone to use"

September 26, 2024

I use Venmo typically with family members or parents on sporting teams. We send one another money for meals and or merchandise we buy for one another.

Pros

I like the ease of sending or receiving money to those who live far away from me.

Cons

I don’t currently have any dislikes. It’s easy to connect to your bank account and disconnect once done.
