If you have added money to your Venmo personal account using the cash a check feature, have bought or have received cryptocurrency with your Venmo-branded cryptocurrency account, you or a Teen User have been issued a Venmo Mastercard® debit card that has not been closed or canceled, or have used Direct Deposit to add money to your Venmo account (including to a balance associated with a Teen Account), we will place your U.S. dollar Venmo personal account funds in one or more Program Banks, where they will, subject to certain conditions, be eligible for pass-through FDIC insurance up to applicable limits. FDIC insurance protects against the failure of a Program Bank, not the failure of PayPal which provides the Venmo service. PayPal is not a bank, does not take deposits and is not FDIC insured. Any other Venmo account funds and all cryptocurrencies are not held in FDIC-insured bank deposits. Cryptocurrencies may lose value. See Venmo User Agreement. You may be offered credit any time after acquiring your Venmo account. Fees could apply. Contact Venmo by calling 1-855-812-4430, by mail to Venmo, 117 Barrow Street, New York, NY 10014, or visit venmo.com/contact-us.
