At Venmo, we’re working to build a payment experience that's simple, delightful and connected. Since our founding in 2009, we’ve quickly grown from an idea hatched by two college roommates who wanted a better way to pay each other back to the go-to digital wallet that’s known and loved by millions. What started off as a simple SMS platform to send and receive money has evolved into a social payments app allowing people to pay, split and share their experiences.
