Information Technology Infrastructure Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 12/15/2021 "these purchase notes because it assures them that the payment has been made" 5/5 What do you like best about Venmo? Venmo has given me excellent results for my business, even within my work environment, I feel that its use has been very appropriate. We have been using venmo for several years now and I have not had many problems with payment processing. It gives me and my clients a lot of security when charging for a service, in addition, most people can handle it easily, but just in case, the platform has a good base of information on their usage policies and that makes us all quite aware of the correct use and handling of the application.All payments are processed fairly quickly so there is no need to wait for third party approval to release the money and have it reflected in the accounts. In addition, it has very good rates of use and unlike others, you do not have to be paying commissions and fees for everything that is done with it. Its interface is very up-to-date and meets everything required to avoid problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Venmo? Well, I have had some trouble adding some bank accounts to the payment system. The times that are taken for the validation of accounts, sometimes tend to take a long time, it would be good to reduce those times, and more taking into account that it is a process that they carry out every time I add a new account, although I remain the only owner of all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Venmo: Venmo provides a lot of security both to me and to the users to whom I offer any of my services. It is extremely gratifying to be able to have a platform that is not only a means of payment, but that protects your identity or banking information from third parties, and also provides you with projection in possible cases of scams, that is why I encourage users to try venmo for payment processing.I recommend Venmo to people or companies who want to enter the digital economy. With Venmo you can have control over your finances and make transactions much faster than normal. And what I find interesting is that their commissions are quite accessible to all audiences. All good service deserves to be recognized and it seems to me that more people in the world should take the opportunity to try technologically advanced systems such as Venmo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Venmo solving and how is that benefiting you? venmo is the billing process. All of them, including the aesthetics with which the receipts are issued by Venmo, seem excellent to me since the receipts show the amounts and if the transaction has actually been carried out, and this same payment receipt can be kept for the records of the finances of any business, whether we have a physical store or work from virtuality. Users also appreciate having access to these purchase notes because it ensures that the payment has been made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
