Wells Fargo and Venmo have partnered to offer a seamless payment experience for customers. This integration allows users to link their Wells Fargo accounts to Venmo, enabling easy transfers and payments.
With this integration, users can transfer funds from their Wells Fargo accounts to Venmo, making it simple to pay friends and family or split bills. This feature is especially useful for those who prefer to manage their finances through Wells Fargo.
Venmo users can also use their Wells Fargo debit card to make payments, eliminating the need to manually transfer funds. This adds an extra layer of convenience to the payment process.
Verify Bank Account
If you're having trouble with instant bank verification, contact your bank for assistance.
To manually verify your bank account on Venmo, you'll need to add your account using your routing and account number, which will trigger microtransfers of less than $1 each.
Make sure you have at least $2 in your bank account to avoid overdraft or other bank fees.

These microtransfers will be reflected in your bank statement as separate items within 1-3 business days.
To complete the verification process, go to the Me tab in the Venmo app, tap on the unconfirmed bank, and enter the microtransfer amounts in the two Amount fields.
Tap Verify again to finish the process, and you're done.
If you can't find the microtransfers on your bank statement, you may need to restart the verification process by deleting the unverified bank and adding it again using your account and routing numbers.
If you don't see the microtransfer amounts after 3 business days, it's possible that the bank account information was entered incorrectly.
