Apparently Venmo does become an option on the checkout page; I’ve seen it advertised. I wonder if you only see it if you have a Venmo account? I would appreciate hearing more about this from users.

Thanks!

Sorry, didn’t subscribe to this thread. It showed up as an option when I went to check out. I was using Safari for my iPhone, I have the Venmo app on my iPhone and I’m a pretty heavy user of Venmo to split the costs on a date.

My apologies, I did get a notice but it got lost in the subscribed-thread emails. I am going to look into ways to keep better track of it.

Just glad y’all have another option here. I think it only appears if you have a Venmo account. Thanks!

Boy howdy, they don’t call you the capo for nothin’ !!!

I too struggled to get the portal to let me Log In to my PayPal account.

Had to wait to get home to use another device/ OS / server etc. May be that it’s a bit twitchy.

I’d be twitchy too if I was funneling money through Chicago. 😃
