### "Quick to send but long to receive"

December 9, 2019

5.0

Overall, its a good experience as either a sender or a receiver's side, because you can get the payment over right away and indebt to no one.

Pros

The best part of this software is that users can pay someone very quick and the money is sent and appear on receivers account right away. This software is like a quick pay program, only take a second to send the money. It's different with the traditional way, when people send money and it takes like 3-5 business in order to see the payment appearing in their account.

Cons

The worst part of this software is that it takes forever to receive money in your actual account, which mean it appears that receivers received the money from sender in Venmo app and it would take time for the money to actually be available to use in your account. If you want to receive money immediately, you will need to pay fees to have it completely transfer to actual account.

### "Venmo is the best!"

April 30, 2020

5.0

Venmo is great for small businesses and for people who just want an easier way to send money. I originally got the app as a way to send money to friends and family when we went out, which was great, and I ended up using it the most to pay my hairdresser that worked out of her home.

Pros

I do not use this software in my business, but I do use it in my personal life. I love how easy it is to send and receive money!

Cons

There aren't any "cons" that I can think of. The software is easy to use, super functional, and I can connect it to my back so I can pull out and transfer money so easily.

### "Lots of options, choose those"

June 2, 2019

3.0

I generally used it make make transactions with colleagues and business partners. The experience isn't as professional as I would have liked.

Pros

The app allowed me to transfer money from myself to multiple people who only needed to sign up for an account to receive the money. The addition of bank account information was fairly simple. The app allows me to send money for free from my bank account to others. It does charge a fee to send money from a credit card, though.

Cons

The thing I hate about this software is that it can post the transaction you make if you're not careful. There is an opportunity to make it a private transaction - but you must be aware of that choice otherwise everyone can see it. This might not be a big deal for some, but I tend to keep my personal transactions private. Now that Apple Pay and Zelle are part of the mix, I use those far more frequently because of their convenience, privacy, and security.

### "Easy Splits!"

August 12, 2019

5.0

Pros

Makes splitting the bills among co-workers and peers SUPER easy. Also supply runs and all that in a pinch. The interface is easy enough to navigate everything and set up. Very user friendly.

Cons

All transactions are public by default. There are alternatives that you probably have already that don't require fees and the like.

### "Daily Use Is An Understatement "

March 5, 2020

5.0

I love Venmo and am so grateful to whoever invented it! Its been a lifesaver in all aspects of my life!

Pros

I USE VENMO FOR EVERYTHING! I use it in my personal life, I use it in my business, it's probably one of the most used applications on my phone.

Cons

I think the only thing I would say is the fees involved with sending money but I believe that's on the banks end otherwise NOT ONE THING

### "Venmo makes instant transfers easier and more enjoyable "

August 19, 2020

5.0

P2p payment is simplified and basically instantaneous

Pros

Im a huge fan of the low fee % they charge when doing business transactions. Much more easier than navigating older providers such as square and most importantly, a lot less “expensive”

Cons

The only thing I would say is difficult when using Venmo is switching between business accounts and personal accounts. I feel like everyone is use to using venmo for personal finance transactions and sometimes forget to use their business dedicated account.

### "Venmo - Game Changer in P2P payments"

March 12, 2021

5.0

It is the most reliable P2P payment platform with a large network engagement

Pros

Extremely quick and fast. Social aspect of the platform makes it "fun" to transfer money. Very reliable and my whole network uses it.

Cons

They should do a better job in providing alternate financial services. The transfer to bank should be free for the faster version.

### "Exciting way to send or request cash between friends"

September 17, 2020

5.0

Overall, I enjoy that most people have Venmo because it is linked to PayPal. I enjoy using the graphics as well because it can make the awkwardness of requesting money a little more fun.

Pros

I enjoy the fun graphics and easy ability to find friends on the app. It is also very easy to download and conduct transactions quickly.

Cons

Venmo defaults to public sharing of where you spend money or share money with friends. There is a way to set it to always private, but it took me over 6 months to find out that this was an option.

### "Great way to exchange monies without needing to go to the bank"

June 15, 2021

5.0

It works, accepted by many people simple and does exactly what it should do securely.

Pros

Simple, secure and it works. Similar to Paypal which I like this is fairly similar and ease of way of exchange money for items or purchases

Cons

Never a big fan to link my bank account to the app but it's secure yet dislike the charges if binding a credit card

### "I use Venmo ALL the time"

March 21, 2020

5.0

The most useful app I have downloaded on my phone!

Pros

I like how easy Venmo is to use! All I do is type in my friends name or username, select an amount of money I would like to request or send, and press done! That's it. Super simple.

Cons

I like the least that I spend money on this software... but that has nothing to do with the actual platform!!! Just my spending decisions.

### "Why I really like Venmo"

December 14, 2021

5.0

I have never had trouble. Everything has always worked exceptionally well.

Pros

Easy access and convenient. Fast payments at the touch of a button. I love the app.

Cons

Right now my account is free, but I would be less like to use if there was a charge for transactions. Venmo is convenient and easy to use. If charges started to apply I would use my bank app instead.

### "Secure, simple and fun"

October 15, 2020

5.0

My cousin wanted to send and I had not downloaded Venmo and was not sure about it. I followed the simple instructions and then got my handle, sent it and I had cash in a few mins! I love it and use it a lot.

Pros

Venmo is to easy to use. The ability write and see others notes is just fun. There is a private option as well so money can transfer with discretion for private family matters. I was recently hacked and another account was breached but not Venmo and that was the one safe and the only one I could use to get money from family. Huge relief and THANK YOU!!

Cons

At first I was embarrassed that everyone could see transfers and requests. Then I realized private was an option, even better. I have no complaints at all and its secure, simple and fun.

Reason for choosing Venmo

I was introduced to Venmo after having CashApp and being upset. Venmo is it for me, family and friends. Secure after my recent breach, fun to read requests and most importantly funds come in and out no problems.

Easily send money to anyone you want with and easy view of who you are actually sending money to. It’s also easy to transfer money directly to your bank account.

January 20, 2022

Overall I think Venmo is a sturdy platform and I would suggest using it for its convenience.

Pros

I like th app development and ease of use. I’ve been with Venmo for years and I never had any issues.

Cons

The apps functions have changed a lot. With true updates it made is more difficult to add my financial institutions. The saved changes to my account don’t always correlate and they ask multiple times for the same information.

It makes the transaction of money between friends or family very easy without fees.

Pros

Easy to set up, use and the interface is easy to navigate. I like the ability to request money as well. Bonus, there are no fees. At least for what I use it for.

I don't care to see other people's transactions that I am not friends with. Occasionally it seems like it takes a little bit to load.
