Businesses are able to generate exposure for the brand as users share their purchases on the Venmo feed and are also able to offer a new social currency to a mobile-first audience. The solution enables users to make payments by linking their debit cards or bank accounts directly via the app, or by transferring the money stored within their account. Besides initiating payments, consumers can receive and send payments from contacts and friends by selecting a @username, contact's name, email or phone number. All transfers can be cashed our immediately to a bank account or stored as a Venmo balance for use at a later time. > > Verdict: Rated **4.7/5** by 9271 users.

I do feel more secure using it than other apps > > **Cons**: I am completely scared of any data breaches or some information being taken in this day of age. Don't like putting account in there ----- ### "Venmo is a safe and easy way to transfer money" — 5.0/5 > **Annie** | *4 December 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The best thing about Venmo is that you can pay anybody almost instantly, without any worry about the security of the transaction. > > **Cons**: The only thing I don't like about Venmo is that the payments are not instant (unless you pay extra), but honestly it doesn't really bother me and I still use it often. > > My overall experience with Venmo is outstanding. It is a platform that is easy to use, convenient, and safe. ----- ### "Easy peasy" — 5.0/5 > **Beth** | *19 March 2026* | Chemicals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how easy it is to find people to that I need to pay. I also like the quickness of the free bank transfer. > > **Cons**: I do not like how often there are Advertisements to use their Venmo card. Otherwise everyone is great\! > > I use Venmo monthly and have never had an issue\! I always switch my payments to private since I do not want visibility into my payments. ----- ### "There's no competent support at Venmo" — 1.0/5 > **Robin** | *4 September 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I used to like the ability to send and receive money, but it's not worth it after what we experienced. > > **Cons**: Support. They have the worst support I have ever experienced. The chat support in the app and on the website instructs you to click on options that are not there. Chat support was minimal and not helpful. Telephone support was equally terrible. In addition to long wait times, my son was instructed to supply Venmo with a picture of a government ID and then him holding the ID. He was then told that he was not looking at them (which he was looking at the camera) and then was told he would need another ID. He is 18. He has a drivers' license. He asked what other ID do they expect him to have? They had no answer for him. He was told his case was being moved to a supervisor and then he suspended his account (which is ridiculous since the entire reason for support was that his phone number changed and he hasn't been able to access his account). It is deeply frustrating as to the level of incompetence, especially since there is money in his venmo account that he cannot access. > > Horrific. The support is terrible for a company in this day and age. Both outdated support options on the App and the website and then horrific support through their customer support phone line. Horrible Horrible Horrible ----- ### "Best money app used" — 5.0/5 > **Denise** | *23 January 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the convince of venmo that it can be used for personal use and business use. I also like that you are not only able to use the app but can also get a venmo debit card that not only can you use but it will also keep track of your spending. You can also set a spending limit that it will alert you if someone tries to spend over that > > **Cons**: I honestly was hesitant about getting venmo in the first place because I am just skeptical of all digital and online based banking but once I got it for business use initially and actually was able to use the app and card, I had no issues with it > > My overall experience with venmo is great\! I can easily use the app to send payments and receive payments from other. You can use the debit card, just as any other debit card and it does not have any hidden fees or issues using out of state or anything. ----- Page: 1 / 372\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/317580/venmo?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/317580/venmo) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
