Steps to Send Money by Venmo

1. Open the Venmo App

3. Find the Recipient

You have several ways to find the person you want to pay:

  • Scan QR Code: If you’re with the person, scan their unique Venmo QR code.

4. Enter the Amount and a Note

  • Type in the amount you want to send.
  • Add a note describing the payment (e.g., “Rent for April,” “Birthday gift,” or even an emoji).

5. Confirm Funding Source

Make sure the correct funding source (your Venmo balance, bank account, or debit/credit card) is selected.

6. Tap “Pay”

Double-check the recipient and the amount. Once you’re ready, hit the blue “Pay” button.

Important Notes:

  • The recipient will receive a notification about the payment.
  • If the recipient doesn’t have a Venmo account, they’ll be prompted to create one to receive the money.
  • You can view your payment history in the Venmo app’s transaction feed.
  • For most transactions, Venmo doesn’t charge a fee, but fees may apply when using a credit card.
