## Reviews

### "Bravo Venmo\!" — 5.0/5

> **Trinidad** | *February 10, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Venmo is a very intuitive and easy-to-use product and service. The app is well designed and very user-friendly. I use Venmo at least a few times a week.
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing I don't like about Venmo is the percentage taken when transferring funds to a bank account for withdrawal. I feel it's a little high compared to similar apps and services.
> 
> My overall experience with Venmo has been extremely positive and I use it quite frequently. I feel Venmo is one of the best financial apps of this kind.

### "Venmo Takes a Big Leap \!" — 5.0/5

> **Kristen** | *April 17, 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I definitely like the fact that it has convenience just like PayPal I know their sister companies The only thing about venmo is it's very picky about what card you're able to add to it
> 
> **Cons**: I can say the only thing that I didn't like about venmo was the fact that certain cards weren't allowed like let's say I have a MasterCard and I want to add money to my venmo well sometimes venmo doesn't take said card so that's when my only difficulties
> 
> I've actually had a fantastic overall view with venmo because I've actually had my venmo card a few times and I was actually able to dispute the charges I was very surprised it's convenient it's a lot like cash app but better more protection

### "Wish i would have read the reviews." — 3.0/5

> **Joshua** | *August 9, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The app is incredibly easy to use. I had absolutely no problems with the user interface. What i had issues with is the customer support team. I couldn't believe how incredibly rude the customer service rep was. I got locked out of my account, due to losing my phone and logging in from a unknown browser, after 6 days of back and forth, I shut down my account and never looked back.
> 
> **Cons**: The disappointment, Oh the disappointment. Venmo customer service is incredibly unprofessional.&#10;Worst experience ever.
> 
> Wish i would have never opened an account. Never in my life would i recommend Venmo.  Sorry guys professionalism is a must.

### "Great payment option for non-profits" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *July 22, 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Venmo allows the non-profit youth baseball club that I volunteer with to accept payments other than checks and credit cards. It’s an easy way for participants and sponsors to submit payments without having to mail a check or go somewhere to pay by card.
> 
> **Cons**: I don’t like that fees are subtracted from each payment we receive, but I know that’s necessary in being able to use the service that Venmo provides.
> 
> Overall Venmo has been a positive tool for us that simplifies payments for our participants and sponsors.

### "Easy to take payments\!" — 5.0/5

> **Kate** | *April 25, 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's super easy to take payments whereever you are, online, in person, and have others in the business take payments on your behalf. Really happy with Venmo.
> 
> **Cons**: It's probably a me thing but the dashboard/menu can be confusing at times and I feel like it should be easier to see your balance and payments as standard when using the app and website rather than searching for it in the menu.
> 
> Really happy with our experience of Venmo. Our business doesn't need to use it every day but for times when we need to take payments on the go or last minute and don't want to use Stripe it's been fantastic\!
