How to Cancel Venmo on Venmo
1 - Identify the merchant where the subscription was created.
2 - Contact the Merchant directly to request cancellation. This is essential as Venmo does not handle subscription cancellations on behalf of merchants.
3 - If cancellation with the merchant is unsuccessful, you can reach out to Venmo Support via the app or website.
4 - You may also disconnect Venmo as a payment method for that merchant if applicable.
Venmo is a money app that helps you send and receive payments easily, split bills with friends, and even schedule automatic payments to friends or family. It also offers Venmo Debit and Credit Cards with cash back rewards. You might see charges from Venmo if you've set up recurring payments or subscriptions with someone using Venmo, as they let you schedule these payments right within the app. It's a simple way to handle sharing costs, paying friends, or keeping up with regular bills.

Venmo does not have a dedicated and straightforward button to cancel subscriptions directly; the user must navigate through settings and account closure steps to cancel, which might be confusing for some. Additionally, subscription cancellation might require contacting the service provider directly if it was set up through them, increasing complexity.

Venmo Refund Policy
Venmo's cancellation policy for memberships, subscriptions, or bills requires users to contact the merchant or biller directly to cancel any billing agreements or subscriptions. Additionally, if stopping a payment scheduled through Direct Debit, users must contact Venmo at least 3 business days before the payment date for assistance. Closing a Venmo account involves moving any remaining funds prior and completing pending transactions, then closing the account from settings in the app or website. Business profiles can be closed separately, but closing a personal profile closes both.

Before canceling your Venmo account or subscription, be sure to transfer any remaining money in your Venmo account to a bank account, debit card, or another Venmo user, as you will lose access to those funds once the account is closed. All pending transactions must be completed before you can close your account. When you close your account, you'll receive a final transaction history via email. Note that closing your personal profile will also close any associated business profile, which cannot be reactivated once deleted. If you want to close only your business profile, contacting Venmo Support is necessary.
