Without a doubt, one of the most widely used financial payment apps available today is Venmo. It's quick, simple to use, and most importantly, free, so it's understandable why. However, did you realise that Venmo also provides direct deposit?

11. Why am I not getting paid two days early with Venmo?
There are several reasons why you might not get your Venmo direct deposit two days early.
The most typical reason for not getting paid two days early with Venmo is that your employer or your employer’s bank deposited the funds late, causing the delay.
Furthermore, if your payday falls on a holiday weekend, Venmo will post the funds the following business day.
Another reason you might not get paid two days early with Venmo is if it is your first direct deposit payment. If that’s the case, the first deposit will often be slower, but subsequent deposits will always arrive earlier.

18. What time does Venmo deposit tax refunds?
It is not difficult to know when your tax refund will arrive in your Venmo account, but it should arrive by 9 AM EST at the latest, the following business day after IRS sent the refunds, much like a usual direct deposit.
Once the IRS processes your taxes, your refund will be sent to your Venmo account.
19. What time does Venmo deposit unemployment?
Unemployment payments should arrive in your Venmo account latest at 9 AM EST, the following business day after the payment was made — though they usually arrive sooner.
Unemployment payments are processed in batches, just like other Venmo deposits, so if the batch is slow or yours happens to be at the end of the set, that may affect the actual timing you receive your unemployment benefit.
20. Can Venmo deposit personal checks?
While there are a few different ways to deposit a personal check, using a mobile check deposit on your phone is probably the simplest method. Venmo, a mobile banking app, allows you to deposit personal checks by taking a photo of the check and submitting it through the app. The process is quick and easy. Of course, this assumes that the check is paid out to you and signed by the person who wrote it.
