Venmo is ok for sending /receiving/ cash and purchase of items. However if you use Venmo to book a hotel that holds a blance for incidentals, Venmo will continue to hold your money 14 days after the hotel has released your funds.
Another dissatisfaction...If you transfer money from your bank account as opposed to your debt card Venmo will hold your transfer 7 days before you can have access to your money. Both of these negative examples allows Venmo to obtain interest from your money. In my personal opinion CASH app or ZELLE or better options.
Venmo customer service is a joke to put it cordially.
The end.
A very dissatisfied lady.
