I lost money on my cryptocurrency purchase. What can I do?
Venmo is unable to offer financial advice. We recommend speaking to a financial advisor.
How long does it take to receive money from selling cryptocurrency?
It’s possible for your sale of crypto to take longer to process and it may not always be successful. If the sale fails, we’ll notify you that the purchase was not successful and your crypto balance will not change. You can try to sell again when you see fit.
Like other Venmo transactions, the proceeds from the sale of crypto can be held for review. If this happens, the funds will either be released to your Venmo account in up to seven days or you will receive a follow-up email from our team. You can see the estimated release date in your Venmo app. If your crypto sale has been pending for longer than expected, please contact our Support team.
In what order is my crypto sold?
Venmo uses the highest-in-first-out ("HIFO") method to calculate gains and losses when you sell crypto. More information is available in Venmo’s Cryptocurrency Terms and Conditions.
