What to know about Venmo files

  • The first two lines are a title ("Account Statement - (@you)") and "Account Activity"; the real header is line 3 and starts with an empty column.
  • Amounts look like "+ $25.00" and "- $1,000.00" (sign, space, dollar sign).
  • A beginning-balance row comes before the transactions and an ending-balance row with a long multi-line disclaimer comes after them.
  • Notes can contain emoji and line breaks.
  • Times are in UTC. Choose your time zone and we convert them; otherwise a late-evening payment can show on the next day.
  • Payments paid from a linked bank or card do not touch your Venmo balance; we add a matching transfer line so the Venmo account still balances.
  • Newer statements (2024 and later) add Amount (tax), Tax Rate and Tax Exempt columns.

Questions

Why do some Venmo payments not change my Venmo balance?
When a payment is funded directly from a linked bank account or card, Venmo still lists it on your statement, but the money moved through that bank or card. The converter adds a matching transfer line for each of those payments, so the Venmo account in your books still ends at Venmo's balance, and the transfer can be matched against your bank or card.
How do I record a Venmo transfer to my bank?
A Standard or Instant Transfer moves your own money from Venmo to your bank. Record it as a transfer between the Venmo account and the bank account, not as income or an expense. When both accounts are in your books, the bank side matches the transfer.
Can I download more than one month from Venmo?
Venmo's statement screen offers one month at a time. Download each month you need, convert each file, and import them in order. The converter also checks each statement against its beginning and ending balance and tells you if anything seems to be missing.
