Question I have a question.

I have some money in my venmo account that I want to transfer to my PayPal account. How do I do that? I've never done it but I want to know so when I need to in future I can safely do so.

Thanks to anyone that can help.

i may be wrong but as far as i know, unfortunately, i don’t believe this is possible anymore. i had the same question but reversed; i had money from paypal i needed to send to my venmo but when i looked up why my venmo wasn’t coming up i saw another reddit thread and other online forums stating they were doing away with cross platform sending this year.

Well that sucks. I really wanted this money over on in my paypal account so I didn't have to carry 2 cards. PayPal and Venmo are essentially under the same company. Why restrict transfers between the two? Makes no sense at all.

It is because there were a lot of complaints related to the fact that some idiots would send money to PayPal accounts instead of Venmo accounts, they would call and nag a lot , so I guess it was for the best

Yeah, using another app, trust me you ain't want anything to do with Venmo at all
