An implicit fee by not paying you any interest for money held in Venmo.

Also notice there's no option to automatically transfer received money into your real checking account. They are banking on you forgetting your money is there and they are earning the interest but not passing it to you.

For this reason I prefer receiving money via Zelle but pay with Venmo.



As if you make any real return holding money in a bank account.
