### "Buying power on your phone"

May 24, 2021

5.0

Excellent. I would love to see Venmo become more widely used in everyday business. It is easy to use, find other users, and send and receive payments from individuals. 5/5

Pros

Free, fast, and virtual. What every device should have for friends and independent companies. I have personally used this as well as used this for purchasing merchandise on multiple occasions. The software is easy to search for someone and is safe to use. There are very few downsides.

Cons

Searching feature was in need of improvement long ago, but now that you are able to scan an individual's QR code, there is no mistaking who you are giving money to. It is hard to find an issue with the software. I would say a non-software issue I have is the fee for using a credit card to transfer funds.

### "Great app for real time payments"

June 3, 2021

5.0

Great. This is the only app I use to pay people directly and its super easy to use.

Pros

Easy to use. Simply add the amount, connect with the person you want to pay and click submit. I've never had an issue using the software.

Cons

It took a little time to set up and connect via my bank but I think that was more of a bank issue than it was the app.

Reason for choosing Venmo

Other people I know were using it and talked about how easy it was to implement.

Awesome app, I would recommend it to everyone!

### "Best one yet!"

March 9, 2020

5.0

Its been great for me. I use it everyday for my work and my business.

Pros

Its so easy to use. The amount of different transactions that you can do are endless. And the most i like is that i can get paid early by using venmo on my work.

Cons

Not a lot of people know about venmo so sometimes i cannot use it because not a lot of people uses it. So they need to work more hard on merchandising this app.

### "Easy way to send money to friends!"

May 19, 2021

5.0

Overall, I really like this app and I use it frequenty.

Pros

There are a lot of payment apps now but Venmo was one of the first I adopted. It's such an easy way to send and receive money between friends. It makes going out to eat with a group super simple since one person can pay and everyone else can venmo their portion to that person. Venmo is used by so many people that the word "Venmo" has become a verb to mean "send me money". I like that they offer a free venmo debit card too so I can leave money in my venmo account and use it via a card instead of having to transfer it to my bank.

Cons

You can accidentally send money to the wrong person and if you do it is very hard to get it back. There should be a way to cancel a transaction.

### "Venmo Rules"

March 30, 2021

5.0

Overall, I love using Venmo and recommend it to all my friends :)

Pros

I love using Venmo and I'm happy to see more businesses using it, especially smaller ones, as times progress. It's a great resource and easy money exchange.

Cons

I do not like sometimes the requesting of money or sometimes the things I read about scammers on Venmo or hackers. That is scary.

### "I recommend this to everyone!"

October 8, 2019

5.0

I recommend Venmo to all of my friends, it is a great program

Pros

Venmo is so easy to use, and very convenient for any occasion. This product can send money from your account in real time to friends and is very user friendly

Cons

There is not much I don't like about this software. You MUST include a memo in all transactions which is slightly inconvenient.

### "A gamechanger in payment sending"

March 31, 2020

5.0

Nearly everyone I know in my business and personal lives now has Venmo, making it a vital tool for sending payment.

Pros

Venmo is easy to use and processes payments quickly. The new ability to transfer payments to bank immediately is a gamechanger.

Cons

In one instance I paid the wrong person with a similar username and getting the transaction reversed by customer service took a few business days. I have yet to run into any other issues while using Venmo.

Simply because more people that I know and do business with have Venmo as a payment option.

### "Essential"

December 3, 2019

5.0

It has solved uncountable situations of shared costs among friends

Pros

The ease of use of the software makes it a must for anybody who needs to share costs. It's great that it's liked to 3rd party budget management apps.

Cons

What it is not that ideal is the privacy modes. One needs to disable the social network visibility in order to keep payments private.

### "Ease of use."

October 5, 2021

5.0

It is the sole app I use to send off money. They make it so easy. I love how my contacts are inside the app. I don't send money to anyone else other than someone in my contacts.

Pros

There is a two-click step to find someone to send money to. "Pay or Request" then find the contact in your list. Thats it!!

Cons

I don't like how you can see everyone elses comments on what it was for. No one else needs to know why I sent someone money.

### "Great for Small Business Owners"

October 7, 2020

5.0

I thoroughly enjoy venmo and it has definitely made the transaction process for my company much more smooth and easier. I hope venmo remains free and adds cool new features!

Pros

I love how fast and simple it is to recieve payment from a customer. There are no fees like credit card services charge, the money comes straight from the customers bank account and goes into your venmo account and then you can pay a small fee to get the money instantly into your account or just wait a day and it is free! Super simple, cheap, and convenient.

Cons

The only problem i have with Venmo is not everyone has it. I really think Venmo needs to advertise more since i only know about it from a friend. Also your "friends" can see all of your transactions, so if you don't want your Facebook community knowing all of your transactions, make sure to register with an email that doesn't have Facebook or your phonebook attached to it!

### "Great for all-around paying and receiving"

July 29, 2019

5.0

I love using this! I also love how you can see what your history on sending and receiving funds! Highly recommend!

Pros

Sending and receiving money is super easy with Venmo, and there are no sending fees when you have your account connected to a checking account or pulling from your Venmo balance. I also love using it, because it is a standard. Most people my age (around 25) have a Venmo account, so splitting the bill or sending quick payments is a breeze.

Cons

I think that the user interface is more complicated than another software called CashApp. It is not a problem once you figure it out, but for those who have never used it before, it will take a little bit more time (like 2 minutes) to figure it out.

### "Convient and personalize paying tool."

November 6, 2021

5.0

After a few efforts of searching how to use it, the app is really good to send

Pros

Besides paying, you can also chat with people, even put an emoji on the payment.

Cons

It's hard to understand the function if you're a new user of the app.

### "Transferring money has never been so easy!"

August 12, 2019

5.0

I would definitely recommend Venmo to my friends!

Pros

It is so easy to transfer money to other people, and with debit card they issued. You can actually use the money you have directly at a store without having to withdraw to the bank!

Cons

Sharing how I am spending my money publicly is a lack of privacy but they do have the option to make it private.

### "What's Not to Love?!"

May 16, 2019

5.0

I've generally used Venmo when splitting business expenses with others or across teams. It makes sharing joint cost very easy and it's also great for non-direct work related expenses like splitting lunch with coworkers or after work outings.

Pros

\-You can send money to anyone and they can send money to you at no cost. Unless you fund your account from a credit card, then it's about 1%. -It makes cost sharing a breeze and makes it possible to no longer carry cash.

Cons

\-I don't always want payments to be public, I'm not in love with the social aspect. -This is really not a great solution if you need to be able to expense something, it doesn't lend itself well to creating invoices in my experience.
