"Effortless Transfers, Full Security"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

I use Venmo to transfer and receive money. Venmo allows me to electronically pay for things when I don't have cash, which is really convenient. I like the ease of use, and setting it up was very easy. I enjoy the security of it, since I've never had any issues with my accounts getting hacked or anything like that. I also appreciate that you have the option to do a 3-day transfer without being charged a fee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

I have no complaints. I've been using it for about 7 years and have never had an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Convenient, No-fee Transfers with Instant Payments."
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

It’s convenient and fairly ubiquitous, so I can use it often. I mainly use it to send money to my family members, but I also use it for business dealings (for example, I pay my accountant using Venmo). It feels confidential, and there are no fees. It’s easy to use both on my Galaxy and on the web. Transfers are instantaneous, and the money is automatically deducted from my bank account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

I don't love the fact that you can see what other people have used it for. I don't use that feature (i.e., I make my dealings private), but I don't care so much about seeing what others are doing with their money. This is only a minor complaint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Payments, Needs Enhanced Security"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

I like how Venmo allows me to send money instantly, which is very convenient and eliminates the need to go to the ATM, especially since not all banks are in every state. I also enjoy the feature that lets me request money to set reminders for friends to pay equally for all events on a trip. This makes awkward money situations super easy, without needing to ask about splitting the bill or having in-depth conversations. Additionally, the initial setup of Venmo was extremely easy.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

I think Venmo could really improve by having better fraud and scam protection. Impersonation can still happen, and I suggest Venmo should require ID verification for every profile to ensure it's really who they say they are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great to use, quick easy transfers and safe and secure"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

The best and easiest way to move money- whether paying someone or receiving a payment, fast and easy. It's free and integrates easily with banking and checking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

Not everyone has access to it- you need a smartphone or tablet and an account to download it. Folks might be scared off by linking bank accounts and not trust the security features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Client Payments with Venmo"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

I like using Venmo for taking client payments because it makes payment options simple. I appreciate how it allows easy, quick payment on the spot. It's great that most people use Venmo, so having it as an option is really beneficial. I also find the 'charge' feature valuable, and the initial setup was easy.

Nothing, it is a great platform. Convenient and quick Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Convenient Money Transfers, Entertaining Features"
4/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

I kind of like the notification feed because it helped me discover one of my exes was cheating on me. It's more entertaining, and obviously, the key feature of Venmo is to send money back and forth, which is the best part. The setup was very easy, and I've used Venmo for sending and receiving money from friends and family, as well as paying small businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

Honestly, I just typically am more drawn to Zelle because there is no fees associated with transferring money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Venmo Revolutionizes Payments and Makes Splitting Bills Effortless"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

Venmo is an absolute game-changer. From splitting a check at a restaurant, to collecting money for any of my daughter's sporting events, collecting payment for her Girl Scout cookies, dividing up bills with my significant other - just an incredible product that has revolutionized the way we pay folks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

Privacy concerns, I try to keep all of my payments private in the settings, but it's weird how your network is aware of what you are buying - whether it be that Pizza that violated your diet or something more nefarious like what was going on with Tyler Skaggs and the Angels. I wouldn't use it for large transfers - like if I was buying a house lol - but for small payments between friends, family - even strangers at a Garage sale, I like it.

I like that Venmo is super simple and easy to use. It solved the extra steps that get in the way when I need to make a payment quickly, making it a lot easier to send money. I also enjoy using the feature where you can pay your friends and scan the QR code of the vendor, which makes it super easy to pay the right person. The initial setup was super fast and very effortless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that more people don’t use Venmo. It’s great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
