I've been trying to set up a Venmo business account for almost two months now. The basic problem: I get asked to validate my account, but when I check, it's already validated. Round and round we go.
Every time I reach support—whether chat or phone—they tell me the devs are working on it and to wait a few days. No ticket number. No callback. No way to actually track the issue.
I don't need hand-holding, I just need accountability. When you're running a small operation, two months of this is genuinely painful.
I've started looking at alternatives, but I'm curious what others are using. Square, Stripe, PayPal—anyone have a setup experience that's been less... endless loop-y?
At this point I might just move my payment flow elsewhere and revisit Venmo when (if?) they fix this. Has anyone else hit this wall, or found a workaround?
