Did you know Venmo comes from the Latin word vendere, which means “to sell” – or that it was once a music start-up where you could text bands to receive MP3s via email?
As we’ve seen, you can send money, receive money, and make standard payments using Venmo at no cost. However, that changes when you use a credit card rather than your debit card or checking account. In these scenarios, you’d pay a 3% processing fee on the transaction.
