"Ease of use!"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

Send and receive money quickly. After receiving money, you can transfer it to your bank for free or for a fee if needed sooner. It's comparable to PayPal but may be easier for some to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

I'm not sure I like to have to note what the money was sent for or received for. I think there is an option to turn that off though, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

"Fast and simple way to make payments and accounts"
4/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

I just like Venmo, it's indeed easy to access between the two parties. It's a dependable way to put money in the hands of people, a good way to submit payments; all you have to do is unlock your application, set the number, and send. The thing I like the most are the very regular deals and cash incentives. I would want to have the ability to withdraw or deposit money directly through mine financial institution, my cell phone and the website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

The one thing I just don't like how the older versions share underwriting that I consider should really be deactivated by law. But overall, it was really good program and I didn't have big problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Venmo is great for instant money transfers"
5/5
What do you like best about Venmo?

I absolutely love Venmo. I use it nearly every single day whether it is friends, family, or business needs. One of the advantages Venmo has over other software like PayPal is that it offers free transfers between users. This is an attractive feature because nobody wants to have to pay a fee every time money is sent or received. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Venmo?

One thing that bothers me about Venmo is that funds can be easily lost or accidentally sent with no money-back guarantee. Some other applications like PayPal offer a goods and services payment method where funds can be replaced if the sale was canceled or invalid. Venmo should add this feature.
