## Reviews

### "Good But PayPal is Faster" — 4.0/5

> **Nava** | *22 February 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's generally easy to setup and use to get money or send money between people. I especially like being able to just show my QR code to someone instead of having to spell my Venmo name to them.
> 
> **Cons**: Transferring money to my bank account takes too long. Paypal does it much faster so for that reason alone I always choose Paypal over Venmo if I can.
> 
> Overall it's a good experience. I've never had a problem sending or receiving money from Venmo. Everyone has it so it's always available.

### "Good application to easily send and receive payments but be cautious when using." — 4.0/5

> **Victoria** | *3 December 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have used Venmo to aid with money transactions for the past 3-5 years. Venmo is free to use however if you want to transfer your money quickly you have to pay a small fee. I have many small businesses and side hustles and Venmo is very easy to use with minimal to no set up or commitment required.
> 
> **Cons**: Venmo allows you to complete payments via credit/debit card or straight from your bank account. The main thing that I do not like about Venmo is that there is minimal security to protect you if you do not receive the good that you pay for, so I only use this application if I have the item in hand. I have used Venmo's customer support system 2 times in order to attempt to cancel payments 1 that was accidentally sent to the wrong person and another that I completed a payment and did not receive my product. Both times I reached out to customer support they were quick to respond however not very helpful when attempting to get my money back.
> 
> Overall I think Venmo is a very quick and easy application to use when wanting to send and receive money however I would just be wary when using this to pay for products or goods when you do not have the items in hand.

### "Very easily hacked." — 1.0/5

> **Arianna** | *2 May 2025* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use. Quick transfer and tap to pay. Designing your own card.
> 
> **Cons**: I received a text regarding fraud alert. I replied fraud. They still let 3 charges go through. I called right away. The guy says that I will have to wait until the charges are processed and not in the pending state. It will be 3 days before I receive an email on their decision. 3 days come around I call back the lady says that there is nothing regarding me calling 3 days ago. The first guy never even made a claim. So she makes the claim. Again tells me I will receive an email. At 4:00 am. I received an email stating that my claim was denied and that they can not prove it was fraudulent charges. Needless to say it totaled out to be $1200. The charges were from a hardware store in Paris. I live in Mississippi. Figure that one out.
> 
> Great until you get hacked. I think it's just another company out here scamming people to make money.

### "I love it\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jennifer** | *23 February 2026* | Libraries | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The pros to venmo are ease of use and quick payment processing. I love how easy it is to use\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!
> 
> **Cons**: The only con to venmo that I can think of is people being able to use it to set up fake accounts and scam.
> 
> My overall experience with venmo has been so great and convienent to be able to pay or receive money fast.

### "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.
