I had someone ask me at my farmer's market last weekend if I accepted Venmo (part of Paypal). I had to look it up. The answer is no, Venmo is not a directly supported method.
Hello @bonny I also do not use Venmo, and I'm reluctant to try any new payment methods. I do use Paypal for some online selling, but Venmo isn't part of the "Square" payment system. You cold accept a Venmo payment, but you'd have to install and use the Venmo app. But you then could record the transaction in your Square reader as Cash or Other, if you wanted to keep a record of all sales into Square.
I think the easier answer is, "Sorry, that's one form of payment I can't accept at this time." In the middle of a busy market day, I don't want to have to juggle two different payment systems. That was the only customer I had ask me about Venmo. She easily switched to a different payment method so it was all good.
