To add money to your Venmo balance, follow these steps within the Venmo app:
- Open the Venmo app and go to the Me tab.
- Tap Add Money or go to Wallet then tap Manage balance and select Add Money.
- Choose a linked bank account or debit card as your funding source.
- Enter the amount you want to add.
- Confirm by tapping Add.
If you add money using a debit card, the funds typically appear instantly in your Venmo balance. Adding money from a bank account usually takes 3-5 business days to complete
. Additional notes:
- You must have a linked bank account or debit card to add money.
- You do not need money in your Venmo balance to send payments; payments can be funded directly from your linked bank or card.
- If you have a Venmo Mastercard Debit Card, you can also add cash in stores or use the card to add money instantly
- Transfers cannot be canceled once initiated.
- If a transfer fails, you will be notified and no funds will be moved.
In summary, the easiest and fastest way to add money to Venmo is via a linked debit card for instant availability, while bank transfers take longer to process
