Harry-
I use Venmo with people I know, such as family members (¡®hey Dad, send me some money¡¯), and friends on tennis team (¡®I¡¯ll pick up the lunch tab, you can Venmo me your share¡¯). It has settings to allow the transaction to be public - in the sense that any one you deal with can see your transactions and vice versa. My settings are always set as private, but the younger crowd likes it the other way. I¡¯ve heard a few stories of customer service not helping but to me it¡¯s a convenient service.

Harry, lots of folks use it, a search brought up the following.

Venmo has been repeatedly criticized for security breaches of user accounts and painfully slow customer service. ... After gaining access to a user's account, hackers can easily change passwords, linked email addresses and bank accounts unbeknownst to the legitimate user.

?Will someone explain Venmo to me? I know it¡¯s a part of PayPal.
Why, if I have a PayPal account do I want or need a Venmo Account?
Is it secure?
Will it be useful.
My eBay maven wonderful wife uses PayPal to receive payment for items she has sold and to pay for items she buys. Will Venmo be useful on eBay?
As always your expertise and help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
