How can we help you?

Cryptocurrency Security

Will Venmo protect my cryptocurrency?

Venmo works 24/7 to help prevent theft and fraud.

If you’re concerned about the security of your Venmo account or if you notice unauthorized activity (transactions, transfer, account changes), let us know as soon as possible. 

Contact our Support team for assistance, and be sure to include as much detail as possible in your request.

What we can't protect you from are losses that result from cryptocurrency price fluctuations. Cryptocurrency is very volatile, and we suggest that you speak with a financial advisor or tax specialist to advise you.
